Behölder - 'A Pale Blood Sky' (official music video)
VERSE 1
Awaken from a vision of the deep
A blood red sky, hordes of chanting masses
And powerless, I watched them summon him
Trembling with fear, he locked me with his gaze
CHORUS 1
(Cry out for the pain of the dead)
Bear witness to the brutal crime
So clear the vision in my mind
Hung by their feet and then bled dry
And stand aglow in a pale blood sky
VERSE 2
The clues propelled my query to a temple
Within its walls, a secret hidden lies
My probing heart was restless and now wary
By lunar light I’d seek the inner sanctum
CHORUS 2 (Cry out for the pain of the dead)
Writ in blood the accursed sign
So clear the vision in my mind
See the fear as the daylight dies
And stand aglow in a pale blood sky
BRIDGE 1
Inside the crypt I search for proof
Torchlight, it flickers upon the walls
In the carved depictions a figure catches my eye
I behold the selfsame creature from my horrid dreams
BRIDGE 2
My heart is pounding as I fall back in fear
A distant hypnotic sound now draws me in
As twisted shapes appear
Unholy ritual and human sacrifice
A vile being summoned from beyond our world
With hatred in its eyes
Clamor and screams
The cultist mob encircles me
Clamor and screams
I’m led into the darkness
VERSE 3
Bound up in chains, and dragged into the chamber
The chanting grows, a nightmare symphony
If only you could hear this final warning
As death draws near, I know there will be no mercy
CHORUS 3
(Cry out for the pain of the dead)
Feel the fear as the daylight dies
So clear the vision in my mind
Writ in blood the accursed sign
Within the fire of a pale blood sky
Awaken from a vision of the deep
A blood red sky, hordes of chanting masses
And powerless, I watched them summon him
Trembling with fear, he locked me with his gaze
CHORUS 1
(Cry out for the pain of the dead)
Bear witness to the brutal crime
So clear the vision in my mind
Hung by their feet and then bled dry
And stand aglow in a pale blood sky

Προ τετραετίας, το 2021, ο κιθαρίστας Carlos Alvarez (Shadowdance, ex-Power Theory, ex-Cipher, ex-Single Bullet Theory) δημιούργησε τους Behölder, οι οποίοι μας συστήνονται κάπως έτσι:
Φέτος μας συστήθηκαν δισκογραφικά. Αρχικά κυκλοφόρησαν τον πρώτο "ολοκληρωμένο" τους δίσκο. "In the Temple of the Tyrant" ο τίτλος και "βγήκε" την άνοιξη (25 Απριλίου 2025) για να ακολουθήσει προ διμήνου (24 Οκτωβρίου 2025) το single "Tower of the Broken God".
Εστιάζουμε στο full length album και ακούμε την φωνή των Judicator (John Yelland), τον Andrew Julkowski στα τύμπανα, τον Matt Hodsdon στην κιθάρα, Michael Sanchez (ex-Judicator) στο μπάσο και φυσικά τον Carlos Alvarez, ενώ σε ένα τραγούδι (τραγούδι) "Eyes of the Deep" συμμετέχει και ο τραγουδιστής των Amorphis, Tomi Joutsen.
Η δισκογραφική τους εταιρεία (Black Lion Records) διατείνεται ότι η μουσική πρόταση των Behölder απευθύνεται στους φίλους συγκροτημάτων όπως οι Candlemass, οι Solitude Aeturnus, οι Sorcerer και οι Memento Mori.
«Epic Doom / Power Metal weaving dark tales of adventure inspired by classic D&D filled with Magic, Mayhem and Riffs Heavier Than A Storm Giant’s Ass!!!»
