Through the veil of mists there lies a place
untouched and lost to time
In the center of a maelstrom of stars it waits
Sentient it reaches out
calling distant cosmic shores
In a silent tongue it beckons for you and I
Green verdant fields and silent sands
Cimmerian canyons, burning plains
Cerulean seas of endless waves
One quiet
Voice in the air
so beguiling
Calling to me as an astral siren
Song of the wind
Divining the
light and the dark
of this world
Whispering winds of fate
Echoes of an ancient force
I can feel you
Celestial might
Courses through my very soul
On the whispering winds of fate
Nine holy ships rest in the sky
Temples praising them below
And betwixt the sun lie two moons of dark and light
In balance all things must remain
As a shadow in the flame
Between love and hate the truth shall always lie
Ashla and Bogan guide my way
Bendu shall orchestrate my fate
And as my cosmic powers rise
I feel the
Call of the dark
Cold and tempting
Singing to me with a serpent's tongue it
Comes as a storm
So unyielding
Breaking the Earth
Of this world

Into the stars shall thy temples rise
In pearlesque splendour
Their permanence and glory transcending time
The astral doorways we command
Spreading far and wide
No one can stand in our way
Conquer and subjugate
The feeble and the meek
A flame that burns within you
Is all we seek
Our fire shall spread through the aether
Cleansing blaze of death and war
Five hundred worlds will now fall
Eternal castigation
A monument of darkness
Transmundane architecture
Discerning light and shadow
Dark power all consuming
Infinite
We are legion
Immortal in time
Shining with starflame
our legacy and might
A forge in the sky
drawing power from the sun
Is the zenith
of our kingdom
With fire from the dark
The hounds of war arise
A hunger calls to them
From shores of unknown plains
I call the holy starflame
The keeper of the ancient power
Cosmic configurations
A guide to virgin lands
Axis Tenebra Mundi
Arcane celestial guidance
Unholy transmutations
Conquering
Eternal castigation
A monument of darkness
Axis Tenebra Mundi
Arcane celestial guidance
Unholy transmutations
Conquering

The Plains of Silence

In the light of Ashla's holy fire (the shadow of the seventh ship)
now guides the way to balance
Deep within the shifting sand
there lies a place of power
hidden from the weak and foolish
Temple of the ancient force
Rises from the quiet, barren plains
Beyond the azure glow of Kaleth's walls
I felt the call of madness
once I reached this silent dying place
Loneliness is now my only fate
But I shall find my way
Stretching out from mortal coils
far beyond the plains of silence
Where portents all begin
I shall find
Deep within the quiet of the sands
In the Plains of Silence
Silent sands won't hide you
Reaching out I'll find you
Hatred clouds and blinds you
Balanced, I'm omniscient
The blood on your hands
Paints the ground a sanguine hue
From Beyond Death, I'll strike again
For all the pain and hate you've wrought
Take my hand
Away from dark
To find the peace
You've always sought

Visions from the abyss
Showed me a scarlet sea of flames in emerald fields
Shrouding the land before it in the blaze of hate and endless pain
A single light emerged
Shining sword of
sapphire breaks the night
and brings hope to all of us
They call me blasphemer
"Darkness has taken you"
Stolen away to the sunless place
Where light and truth go to die
When the burning ship shall fall
It Spells the doom for one and all
Heed the words of truths untold
Or you shall die upon the sword
Within the blazing flames of war
You will find the darkness' call
When the burning ship shall fall
It Spells the doom for one and all
Heed the words of truths untold
Or you shall die upon the sword
Ashla's Call dies deep in hatred's flame
When the blazing blade of light shall rise on high
Breaking Earth, storm of force will rage again
As light and truth now die
Truth, finally revealed
Here on the battlefield I stand
Glorious sword, bathed in light
Guides the way to victory
Through the throes of darkness
I slaughter without mercy
Foes fall around me I revel in death and decay
I am lost
The balance is gone, only darkness remains
igniting the fires of the blade

Legends Of Human Spirit

This album is shockingly good. It's one of the best power metal albums I've ever heard. I see a lot of comparisons to golden era DragonForce, which isn't wrong, because it is consistently uptempo keyboard laden power metal with progressive elements, but there's a clear style ShadowStrike has that isn't just regurgitating someone else's sound. I can't imagine what else to say other than this is exactly why I listen to power metal.

An absolutely amazing Epic fantasy Power metal band. It reflects the warrior spirit very well. I'm looking forward to their third album.

Blackened death metal riffs and Lovecraftian horror go hand-in-hand on the Seattle brutalists' ferocious eight-track epic.
