about

The Aboriginal Storyteller – Beware the ides of March: a song that puts up with a short lyrical story-line of fatally predetermined self-wreckage. Musically, a much-pretending-to-sound-mid-tempo piece unfolds with ease only to ascertain cutting edge melodies, stomping rhythmical parts and a thorough display of all-around vocal performance.

lyrics

Rumors spread about a "Storyteller"

The emancipator, the controller of the threads of fate

The ever youthful, but old and aged
"Consult him", they claimed, he 'll give you peace ' n ' aid"

"You 've been waited to be seen"
The rites to my walking in
His blind eyes would mirror my fate

Wrinkled face - he seemed villain
Red garments, hands corroded

Mastermind, his cane unawed

The indomitable sorcerer,
Yet acquainted to the most, as a non-insidious host

The emancipator, the controller of the threads of fate
The Aboriginal Storyteller

Not another word could be detached from him
My speech was deducted beforehand
"The renown leader of the tribe" foresaw something in me,
a charismatic disciple
Then manipulated the eyes of my soul,
guiding me through the ruins of the yet - to come

The Aboriginal Storyteller
"Beware the ides of March",
"You 'll be the architect of your own destruction"
"I surmise and foresee that your journey will not end well"

Flames surrounding my people, my hometown collapsed,
I am kneeling to control the sands.

"What is written in the timeline, cannot be changed"
The incantation of the necromancer - so I stirred for a moment"

Although I 've seen the hanging gardens,
slayed invisible foes of unmatched evil
and ruled and served wisely my people,
Μy life would be a waste?
Not at all!

Shadow In The Darkness Band image

Shadow In The Darkness Band Attica, Greece

Shadow In The Darkness are a quartet ensemble since 2009 that minister zealously the technical metal music arts.
In what it begets, they infuse melodic pliers with spicular (poly)rhythm acts all in a self-reflective outline of frugality
in which they dare their contemplators not to partake into a spiraling multiverse of displays. ... more
