From the recording OLD BLOOD RISING
An epic Slavic-Nordic folk anthem driven by thunderous war drums, fast lute melodies, emotional violins and powerful male bard vocals. Northern riders march beneath the black banner through frozen seas, storm-filled skies and ancient forests, surrounded by the spirit of old gods and warrior legends. High-energy cinematic folk music blending pagan atmosphere, heroic storytelling and relentless northern rhythm.
Lyrics
Cold steel
Black fire
Northern hearts are rising higher
Storm winds
Red sky
Hear the iron riders cry
Old roads
War drums
Feel the northern kingdom come
Wolf eyes
Moon flame
Every warrior knows his name
Dark seas
Long ships
Frozen rain on iron shields
Black smoke
Torch light
Northern banners through the night
Wild hearts
Cold stone
No man rides these roads alone
Strong winds
War cry
Stormborn riders never die
White snow
Cold rain
Still we ride through fire and flame
Old gods
Dark sky
Hear the northern eagles cry
Black wolves
Deep night
Torches burning through the pines
Strong hearts
Steel flame
Raise the black banner again
Raise the black banner high
Under frozen northern skies
Stormborn riders through the flame
Still the north remembers names
Raise the black banner strong
Hear the old war drums roll on
Through the fire through the storm
Northern blood forever warm
