lyrics

Longships carve through the icy waters
As the wind bites at our frozen faces
A banner is raised above the sail
The sign of heathen invasion

Through frigid doom and stormy ruin
We sail towards the isle of riches
Our enemies await us on the shore
But no man or god can defy our ambition

And father sky gathers the clouds
As they turn black as the night

And mother earth shifts and groans
As the hills quake with fright

The pride of our fathers
Drives us forth
‘Til all the world fears
The men from the north

Our foe is gathered
But we stand unshaken
Courage and valor
Dwell in the heart of the pagan

Boots of leather are stamping the mud
As we march away from our households
Our island we shall defend with our blood
This day you shall not take our gold

And father sky gathers the clouds
As they turn black as the night

And mother earth shifts and groans
As the hills quake with fright

The resolve of my kinsmen
Is broken by your deceit
Carnage rages
And you bring us defeat

I realize now
As I lay here forsaken
Violence and cruelty
Dwell in the heart of the pagan

Wield Revenge
by Bronze

supported by 5 fans who also own “Heart of a Pagan (demo)”

Definitely a band to keep an eye on, this EP oozes potential. Wield Revenge is much more raw than anything I would normally listen to but damn, it's fun! I can't get the chorus to Leather Warrior out of my head and I love the folky melodies in Tale of Revenge and Dare to Face Fear that fit perfectly with the crunchy riffs. On top of that Mina Walkure's expressive voice shares some similarities with that of Crystal Viper frontwoman Marta Gabriel, which is a good thing in my opinion. Fingers crossed that Kramp can attain the same sort of success! Grimslath

Bought this and the Death Metal 1 collections. Really nice to hear a variety of stuff. All well performed & recorded. Somehow this seems more interesting material than a lot of bigger names as it seems honest. Thanks Mr Observer. Benedict Roff-Marsh

Playful and heavy in a non-obvious, dreamlike sort of way; Thin Lizzy + Jefferson Airplane = Epic Metal?! Grendel's Sÿster
