by Dire Fate

supported by

BURNING_SISTER_DOWNER_ROCK thumbnail
BURNING_SISTER_DOWNER_ROCK ‘Ritual/Rehearsal MMXI’ is a killer demo that incorporates the best elements of traditional doom—ominous riffs, expressive vocals, and an unwavering devotion to creating a heavy and foreboding atmosphere through their compositions alone. Favorite track: Ah Satan... (Do You Know Him).

I was visited in old age At the turning of my mortal page By a demon in a shining light His darkness swallowed the night But I saw the light of day So I smiled anyway Because I knew I’d sold you all The devil has touched my very soul Ah Satan, do you know him? He is warm when life is cold Ah Satan, do you know him? He is life when death’s foretold Ah Satan, now I know him Horns and hooves and wings and fangs If you don’t you surely will Because I’ve brought him down upon you all! This is your last day Try to smile as you pass away To live on is my goal The devil has touched my very soul Ah Satan, do you know him? He is warm when life is cold Ah Satan, do you know him? He is life when death’s foretold

Place pen to paper And call up forgotten words Carve up our world And pour its blood forth! Invoke the spectre In the name of truth Toll the bell now Oh! I hear it ring! Cast the spell Oh inspiration You are the fury in all our veins Our tongues drip magic All our words are philosophy Shape convictions Of all the passive ones Toll the bell now Oh! I hear it ring! Cast the spell

Spire of War 04:17
Summoned by the princes black A lust for power has brought it back All the omens went ignored Infernal beacon of metal black Soldiers of the past are summoned back All the omens went ignore All the old tales speak of raising up a God Who knows only war 'Our doom has come!' All the elders say And so we flee before the Spire The Spire of War We are all of us now enslaved Under whips of demons until the grave All the omens went ignored All the old tales speak of raising up a God Who knows only war 'Our doom has come!' All the elders say And so we flee before the Spire The Spire of War
