Metal Tuesday – Powerwolf – Coleus Sanctus

January 28, 2014 / / 0 Comments

For this week’s Metal Tuesday, I have a recent find. Well, recent for me, at any rate. Without further ado, I present Powerwolf’s “Coleus Sanctus.”

Lyrics:

Coleus Dominus Sanctus Animus
Coleus Sanctus
Coleus Dominus Sanctus Animus

Awake to live when carnal battle calls
bring up the force behind the Iron balls,
strong and bound the pale injection,
the rise of life and lust above the soul,
the mind of instinct gone beyond control,
praise the saints for this erection

Coleus Sanctus, in the heart of the night,
Coleus Sanctus, mighty arm in the fight,
Coleus Sanctus, holy sanctum of men,
Ave Maria

Coleus Sanctus, in the heart of the night,
Coleus Sanctus, mighty arm in the fight,
Coleus Sanctus, holy sanctum of men,
Ave Maria

I pray to Father, Son, Testosterone
In darkest Night,
don’t leave my mind alone
Stand !
Forever be my demon
the resurrection of the carnivore
the mind of maleness turned to whitened stone
come and sanctify the seamen

CHORUS

Coleus Dominus Sanctus Animus
Coleus Sanctus
Coleus Dominus Sanctus Animus

And in the night, when hormones rise with lust,
when out of silence we are slaves to lust
Coleus Sanctus, be my saviour for all time.

CHORUS

Coleus Dominus

Tuesday Metal – Beastie Boys/Decapitation – “Sabotage”

January 21, 2014 / / 0 Comments

I have a fondness for good mashups. So, for this week’s Metal Tuesday, we have a mashup of the death metal band Decapitation and the Beastie Boys on the Beastie Boys’ “Sabotage.”

Lyrics:

I can’t stand it, I know you planned it
I’m gonna set it straight, this Watergate
I can’t stand rocking when I’m in here
‘Cause your crystal ball ain’t so crystal clear

So while you sit back and wonder why
I got this fucking thorn in my side
Oh my God, it’s a mirage
I’m tellin’ y’all, it’s a sabotage

So, so, so, so listen up ’cause you can’t say nothin’
You’ll shut me down with a push of your button?
But you, I’m out and I’m gone
I’ll tell you now, I keep it on and on

‘Cause what you see you might not get
And we can bet, so don’t you get souped yet
You’re scheming on a thing that’s a mirage
I’m trying to tell you now, it’s sabotage

Why
Our backs are now against the wall?
Listen all y’all, it’s a sabotage
Listen all y’all, it’s a sabotage
Listen all y’all, it’s a sabotage
Listen all y’all, it’s a sabotage

I can’t stand it, I know you planned it
I’m gonna set it straight, this Watergate
Lord, I can’t stand rockin’ when I’m in this place
Because I feel disgrace because you’re all in my face

But make no mistakes and switch up my channel
I’m Buddy Rich when I fly off the handle
What could it be, it’s a mirage
You’re scheming on a thing, that’s sabotage

Metal Tuesday – Holy Grail – Chase the Wind

January 14, 2014 / / 0 Comments

Holy Grail was a band I found when I went to the Florida Powerfest (2010? I think?). I was there to see Blind Guardian, but these guys were a nice surprise. So, for this week, we have Holy Grail’s “Chase the Wind.”

Lyrics:

Bloodshot eyes watch secretly
Headless fools observing me
Walk on by with nose held high
It’s what they can’t perceive, that they’ll never realize

Run for your life! Outcasts and Derelicts unite
Don’t try to hide! We must expose their sinful pride
Which the fools have denied

All of our lives
We’ve always been
Alone in the dark
Chasing the Wind

Empty inside
Withered within
At the edge of the night
Gone again

There’s no difference, us and them
Aside from pride that swells their heads
Casting judgment on what they see
It’s what they can’t perceive, that they’ll never realize

Buried in lies! Outcasts and Derelicts unite
Don’t try to hide! We must expose their sinful pride
Which the fools have denied

All of our lives
We’ve always been
Alone in the dark
Chasing the Wind

Empty inside
Withered within
At the edge of the night
Gone again

No two different, none alike
It’s what they can’t perceive, that they’ll never realize

Metal Tuesday – Dark Princess – The Deepest Fall

January 7, 2014 / / 0 Comments

Since it’s known I have a fondness for female-fronted metal bands, let’s go with one from Russia, Dark Princess. This week’s song is “The Deepest Fall.”

http://youtube.com/watch?v=68CId45W1Ro

Lyrics:

To see your pain is such a pleasure
Eyes are full of tears uncried
My fall for you is hard to measure
Trust me fool I never lied

Let me reach out to you
I want my loving back

Going down
Follow me
I’ll never leave you
Will you leave me.
Going down
Follow me
I’ll never leave you
Will you leave me?

I’ll be your slave for time eternal
Crawl for you on broken glass
You are my beast it’s such a turn-on
You may die of my caress.

Let me reach out to you
I want my loving back

Going down
Follow me
I’ll never leave you
Will you leave me.
Going down
Follow me
I’ll never leave you
Will you leave me?

Metal Tuesday – Pantera – Walk

December 31, 2013 / / 0 Comments

This week’s Metal Tuesday is probably my favorite Pantera song “Walk.”

Lyrics:

Can’t you see I’m easily bothered by persistance
One step from lashing out at you…
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I’ve got more friends like you
What do I do?

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I’ve been
Belong
You can’t be something you’re not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Re-spect, walk, what did you say??
Re-spect, walk, are you talking to me???
Are you talking to me??

Run your mouth when I’m not around
It’s easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize

Can you hear the violins playing your song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I’ve been
Belong
You can’t be something you’re not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

(Chorus)X 2
Re-spect walk, what did you say??
Re-spect walk, are you talking to me???

Are you talking to me??

No way punk

(Chorus)X 2

Are you talking to me?
Walk on home boy

Metal Tuesday – Sabaton – The Lion From the North

December 10, 2013 / / 0 Comments

Yesterday was the birthday of Gustavus Adolphus, so for Metal Tuesday, let’s do Sabaton’s “The Lion From the North.”

I first came across Gustavus Adolphus in Eric Flint’s 1632, which I highly recommend.

Lyrics:

A time of religion and war
Legends tell the tale of a lion
This beast in the shape of a man
With a dream to rule sea and land

And all those who stand in his way
Die by God and victorious arms
With the righteous that follows him south
Once more set ashore to war

Legends have taught battles fought
This lion has no fear at heart
Lion come forth come from the north
Come from the nooooorth

Gustavus Adolphus
Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens
Augusta per augusta

A storm over Europe unleashed
Dawn of war a trail of destruction
The power of Rome won’t prevail
See the catholics shiver and shake

The future of warfare unveiled
Showed the way that we still walk today
Der Löwe aus Mitternacht comes
Once more he is here for war

Stories of old truth unfold
Control over Europe he holds
Freedom he’ll bring
Lion and king lion and king

Gustavus Adolphus
Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens
Augusta per augusta

Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera
(Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera)
Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera
(Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta)

Mighty eagle rule alone
Liberator claim the throne
Lion from the northern land
Take the scepter from its hand [X4]
(Oh oh oh you lion from the north
Ooooooooh you lion from the north)

Legends have taught battles fought
This lion has no fear at heart
Lion come forth come from the north
Come from the nooooorth

Gustavus Adolphus
Libera et impera
Acerbus et ingens
Augusta per augusta

Gustavus Adolphus go forth libera impera
(Gustavus Adolphus Libera et impera)
Acerbus et ingens go forth libera impera
(Acerbus et ingens Augusta per augusta)
