A newer symphonic metal band that dropped into my YT feed. And some solo Charlotte "Nuclear" Wessels.
Faun - Blot English lyrics: I will sacrifice to the fire and this I will ask. I will sacrifice to the earth and this I will ask. A sacrifice to the elves took place here. I will sacrifice to the sky and this I will ask. I will sacrifice to the earth and this I will ask. A sacrifice to the elves took place here. There the blood stopped Let this blood stand still Stand still, blood!
Tomoyasu Hotei, "Battle Without Honor Or Humanity" From the Kill Bill Volume 1 Soundtrack...it's also my theme song whenever I jump in my car and hit the road.
Seriously, eyeliner needs to make a comeback for guys as the drummer's rocking it, but I digress... If you really dig the music, there's a sweet, sweet extended instrumental: Oh yeah!
New one by Visions Of Atlantis, glad they're going a little pirate again. Visions Of Atlantis - Monsters
I think that's 3 albums now? At least the videos from those albums having a pirate theme. I had a YT channel recommended "Lost Hits Of The 70's & 80's". Lots of very obscure bands in there, plus a few I have heard of. This is the 7th and final album from The Miracles after Smokey Robinson had left the band. Still a really tight sounding group, a shame the labels didn't promote them like they deserved. But at least they got 7 albums.
