Sodom - 'Battle Of Harvest Moon' (official audio)

Machine gun fire ringing
From war infested hills
We stand as one but torn apart
This new born day will never cease

And when the very deeps unlocked
To deny for us eternal sleep
Silver flames across the dark
Locked up in place
We could not find a strategy
No option to escape

Battle of harvest moon
Battle of harvest moon

Tiding down the dooms of chaos
Triggered in hellacious rage
Cursed by the enemy’s constant fire
Through the ghost of morning haze

Dark absorption in your eyes
Tenacious underneath
The calls of fallen invited us
To the god where we belong
In persistent enemy force
Forever silent, forever gone

Battle of harvest moon
Battle of harvest moon

Left these sick brotherhoods
That honor could not move
Naught broken except this body
Into the jaws of Death
Nothing to shake the dying heart
Into the mouth of hell

Paled bones and desecrated tombs
Into the cradle of our souls
In the battle of Harvest moon
Paled bones and desecrated tombs
Into the cradle of our souls
In the battle of Harvest moon

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από πέντε (τυπικά τρία αν θεωρήσουμε ως full length και τον δίσκο "40 Years at War - The Greatest Hell of Sodom") έτη για τους Sodom. "The Arsonist" ο τίτλος του νέου πονήματος των Γερμανών thrashers, το οποίο κυκλοφορεί ήδη...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Sodom returns with ‘The Arsonist‘, their first full-length album since 2020.

It’s not only the complex production process that testifies to the band’s exceptional creative spirit, but also their diverse songwriting, which saw all four Sodom musicians - Tom Angelripper (vocals, bass), Frank Blackfire (guitar), York Segatz (guitar) and Toni Merkel (drums) - involved in the development of the material on ‘The Arsonist’.

The mastering was done by the famous sound engineer Eroc and the cover artwork with its martial design was penned by the exceptional Polish artist Zbigniew M. Bielak (Ghost, Mayhem, among others).»
