Robin Campbell

Robin Campbell I've heard your music described as NWOBHM, "like Iron Maiden", but I hear other influences like Tyr and Metallica very strongly as well. Overall I really like it, but I HATE the damned growly vocals butting in on most songs. C'mon, you're not playing death metal or beauty-and-the-beast stuff, so how about leaving the guttural silliness out of your otherwise excellent compositions? Favorite track: Anthems of Triumph and Tragedy.

Tommy Parnelle Somehow manages to be very progressive while maintaining a massive heavy/power metal sound chock full of riffs! Favorite track: Iron Will.

Next to the life I live there is a shadow world Batons of cruelty passed from hand to hand Cut to the left fly to the right You cannot escape the maze you cannot escape the blade Cut to the left fly to be right You cannot escape the gaze you cannot escape his blade Your hunger is the reason why I die Gluttons fill their taste for life blind to the grind and tears Do not sigh the time to cry is when the laughter that fills the air Poisoning the well from which we all must drink or surely die Your hunger is the reason why I die tonight in this shadow world Poisoning the well from which we all must drink or surely die All my dreams all my dashing hopes Pull me down so I can drown in desire Harvesting no ill will I move into a field of rage Counting all the ageless songs we all sing when our time is done Close to me giver of my life Same will burn, cut and kill in spite Time after time we held each other embracing truth Darkened our hearts without emotion lust bleeds thru And now I see in this brief moment a calling to Calling to run and from pretending I'll take my due One by one we're still going down To where we can hide from mortality Time after time we held each other embracing truth Darkened our hearts without emotion lust bleeds thru And now I see in this brief moment a calling to Calling to run and from pretending I'll take my due

I was born in the dead of the night Darkness gave me the true meaning of my life When the sun rose I was cast into the light I drink poison now to block it out Joining those who perish in its wake We own the night and all of her hidden promises We own the right to see clearly in the darkness What once was feared is now reveled in Darkness reveals the true meaning of my life As the sun sets a crown is placed upon my head Taking those in my wake Daylight dreamers holding tight as we grow old We own the night and all of her hidden promises We own the right to see clearly in the darkness Now I see myself falling faster down We own the night and all of her hidden promises We own the right to see clearly in the darkness As she casts her pall A pox upon me now Brought down low By the the day

Locked up in my mind but never trailing far behind My fading memory sutured up inside Take these bones, flesh and marrow to the estate Build by scornful pride, petrified brazen lies My greatest feats have yet to come to me The cut of final words allow the cast of dreams to flow Count the final words of nights and dawns long past My memories hold their own in this vicious state How I long to feel peaceful rivers of reverie I’d love to be disturbed if only from time to time Let my will be washed away, grave monuments will remain My greatest feats have yet to come to me So open up the door and whisper to the world There is no perfect time, there is no perfect time, there is no perfect time Memories will die There is no perfect time, there is no perfect time, there is no perfect time Memories will die King of solitude, rule of these lonely years I’d love to be disturbed if only from time to time Let my will be washed away, grave monuments will remain There is no perfect time, there is no perfect time, there is no perfect time Memories will die There is no perfect time, there is no perfect time, there is no perfect time Memories will die Ignored by passersby, trailing far behind My faded history not buried but locked inside No sight in front, dreams behind, I want to feel again To open up and cry out to the world There is no perfect time, there is no perfect time, there is no perfect time Memories will die There is no perfect time, there is no perfect time, there is no perfect time Memories will die

Iron Will 05:18
I am a metalhead bound by no god bound by no man Thriving and living life, destroying with sound as sharp as a knife But there's a core to me made of iron and loyalty Come closer if you please We are all metalheads bound by no god bound by no man Drink from the stein of life Beer – Women – Music – Fights The music that we play and pay homage to it burns in our veins Come closer if you please, join us in the triumph of the night Whether near or far we will be there by your side Crushing through the dark, drink your beer and have your hide Bound by Iron Will Strength in our name We are together now Power and might, metal will strike Bound by Iron Will Strength in our name We are together now Power and might, metal will fucking rule you all Bound by Iron Will Strength in our name We are together now Power and might, metal will strike Bound by Iron Will Strength in our name We are together now Power and might, Iron Will we shall never die

Six lonely years but never alone Like salt tears thrust into the wound Days beat down on me with nothing in return Known only victory truly this is my fate I bite your dreams and I take them for my own I spite your very will and take it for my own Risked my life for my love, a vertigo belief Shed my skin for love, a steady non relief I bite your dreams and I take them for my own I spite your very will and take it for my own Chained by the night The future's in our hands Chained by the night The future's in our hands As I pass, then I dash through the needle's eye Chained by the night Darkness you are my only friend So slow is my demise, gain mortality C'est la mort I say, a steady non relief Days beat down on me with nothing in return Known only victory truly this is my fate Chained by the night The future's in our hands Chained by the night The future's in our hands As I pass, then I dash through the needle's eye Chained by the night Darkness you are my only friend

My time withers away There is no return, regret has its way And if you know about those regrets The poison in your veins And if you ever looked to the past The sorrow that remains Echoes of silence Sound from squandered youth Cries of pride etched upon my tomb Give me a little more time To cast away the all fears, to make the wrong seem right Give me something to believe That all the time that passed me by is still mine to receive Sometimes the bleak is all we see But times have changed, why can't we have it all I know times have changed, why can't we have it all Mortality plagued by innocence Starvation wilts, I fill Heat of passion burns Warms my cold dead heart Echoes of silence Sound from squandered youth Cries of pride etched upon my tomb My dominion, this clarion to bestow Its blood wrought wisdom, a widow to my soul Give me a little more time To cast away the all fears, to make the wrong seem right Give me something to believe That all the time that passed me by is still mine to receive

The white race is clawing through the earth Constant push and pull of wasted lives Long ago the mold was cast That why the story's always sung Predicate violence, in praise of the silence A fist clenched hand keeps the flesh warm Etched in granite forged in fear That the end times never come I look to see who's not my enemy In the end I know its only me Each of us a world apart Cast together, ill-fated lot Acts of unkindness, societies' blindness Ripped away, Keep the flesh warm History seers hard fought glory Victors stand to tell the story Final days of gods and man, we are over again Ascending towards past salvation Hidden by our own creation Final days of machines and man are over again Ascending ever skyward, transcending life Never wayward, wash away the past before we fall Dynasties rise, empires fall New tribes await to pick clean all the bones Civilized violence, there will never by silence A hollow earth is all to claw through now History seers hard fought glory Victors stand to tell the story Final days of gods and man, we are over again Ascending towards past salvation Hidden by our own creation Final days of machines and man are over again

I walk the lonely road, a journey without end I search the infinite, emptiness my only friend I long for all that was, and will ever be To make my mark upon the shroud, the veil of history Watching as the world goes by We are but memories caught in time I close my eyes, flowing like a river or choose to walk the line You could remember these words, your fate lies upon the path you take Forever Forgotten you will never be remembered A brief moment in time means everything to me Forever Forgotten you will never be remembered Holding onto bitter life means everything to be Are we damned to fade away Who will carry on our name Nothing's out of sight Nothings out of reach Memories caught in time
