Cheers rain down
from the crowd
in the arena where they fight
rabid fans
bloodthirst quenched
felled opponents
crimson drenched
destroy those before you
victory attained
when eagles strike
flying high
eagle strike
taloned death
ripped to shreds
when eagles strike

Storm down the causeway
On black leathered steeds
Ride into the Darkness
The night is all they need
Welcome to the place
Where the Nine and evil meet
Enthralled unto the Dark One
And steeped in infamy
Studs and spikes
Speed and Steel
Dread deeds now awake
Force your hand and blade to yield
Heavy Metal Wraiths!
Knights of the Chasm
An infinite abyss
Corrupted by their Master
Persuaded by his whips
To and fro' they roam the land
Leaving evil, in their wake
Now they've come to take command
Heavy Metal Wraiths!
Studs and Spikes
Speed and Steel
Dread deeds now awake
Force your hand and blade to yield
Heavy Metal Fucking Wraiths!

Frostwyrm Cavalry

Trudging through the Marshland
A forlorn cavalcade
Returning home without brothers
Lost unto the grave
And in this vast expanse
They know they're not alone
Befelled by scaled terror
Snapping through their bones
Beware the drums of battle
Echoing through the night
If thy ears should hear them
be prepared to fight
Spectral Riders gather
Swooping from the sky
A legion most forsaken
Summoned now to die
Frigid Wings, block the sun
As the revenants descend
Swinging arcane weapons
That steel cannot defend
Shredding horse and men alike
Ice Drakes dive bomb to the ground
hundreds cry for mercy
Covered in Death's Shroud
One by one they fell
to the Frostwyrm Cavalry

The twilight descends
As they traverse the ice
Valinor fled, devour the light
Great Spider awakens
Through evil rite
A horror befell
The Dark Lord brings night!
The light of the Valar grows dim
Within this northern realm
A stronghold of infinite black
Embrace thy Wicked Spells
Dread fortress which hides
the ancient things
To Morgoth's side flap fiery wings
Great Spider has spun cursed web
The tides of time begin to ebb
The Race of Men has failed
Come forth! Captain of Angbad
With his great axe now
Cut free the bonds of gloom
Upon thy Masters brow
A counterattack, scar up the land
Exposing echoes
In Beleriand

Crusaders!
Godly words and songs
Holy wars, Marching thousands Strong
With Arrow and shields they rushed the land
Convinced his kingdom was at hand
And True! They met the pearly gates
Cut down, by those who lie in wait
The sign of the Virgin son
Justified the horrors that were done
The Axe always fells its foe
The Carnage the razor will bestow
Razor sharp
The Blade you face alone
Razor Sharp
Cleaving meat and bone
Razor Sharp
Pointed edge of doom
They came with crosses, and left with puncture wounds
Forgotten names and shallow graves
Messiah turned to cinder
Hacked to pieces and left to rot
In their promised land
In the name of Christ
the fools set forth to conquer
And though they pled for their lives
They perished without honor
No riches from Heaven or Earth
could keep them from the dirt
Bled out with pierced hearts
Their deaths were razor sharp
Razor sharp
The Blade you face alone
Razor Sharp
Cleaving meat and bone
Razor Sharp
Pointed edge of doom
They came with crosses, and left with puncture wounds
Razor Sharp
Hearing the Death Knell
Razor Sharp
From the pits of Hell
Razor Sharp
Pointed edge of doom
They came with Crosses and left with puncture wounds

We are the Goddamned Horde
The peasants who hunt the priests
Under one roof we find them
And torch their monasteries
We are coming for their castles
We are coming for their gold
In their beds and manors
An inferno, for centuries told
We protest God in Heaven
This Black Company Rides!
Broken and downtrodden
Too drunk and proud to die
Houses of tradition
Will crumble to the ground
together in our mission
Neither Cross Nor Crown
Condemned to be in poverty
From plates of rats, we feed on scraps
A single voice, we say no more!
Better dead, than living poor
Houses of tradition
Will crumble to the ground
together in our mission
Neither Cross Nor Crown
Famine, We are the Plague
Sin, the only way
Death, follows so close
Darkness, lie in repose!!!!!

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good.
