Lyrics:
Written in the halls of old
Our names are bound
To serve the realms of men
Never to break our honour
But as I read the names before me
A truth unknown
They died not for the realm
But turned their backs on the throne
What made these cowards flee?
Their lives not lost
But buried for none to see
By flame I read the scripture
Their lies unspilled
Their sacred oath, shall never be fulfilled
And as my path unfolds
The cracks form beneath me
Betrayal I am told
Awaits to deceive me
Unfinished story
What made those cowards run?
No death or glory
All loyalty undone
By flame I read the scripture
Lies burn upon the page
Deserters of the kingdom
But what drove them away?
Now
I see
Hatred cast them aside, but I have come
And there'll be
A new knight fighting until this battle's won
I will go down with this ship
Don’t fear the end
Because it’s coming for us all
Warned but could not believe
The exiled had good reason
Ignored the prophecy
And condemned them with treason
My life’s sworn to the kingdom
Then who should betray me?
And if my path should follow the exiled
Then who stands to slay me?
To you, I pledged allegiance
And vowed to serve the realm
Sacrificed all that I am
To save us from this hell
Adorned in capes of honour
I wore with pride
From days of endless shadow
Now stands a shining knight
And with valour, I shall fight

Hell yeah man let’s go! 👏too good!
You honour me, Ola! Hope you're doing well my dude :)
Shoulda had Ola do drums on this album hahs
@@aordoomsday I see a Gillion Chug collaboration on the horizon :)
Coffee with Andy when? :)
Simmer down, Englund.
All that vocal practice in the car finally paying off!! Sounds awesome, Andy!
Yep! All that screaming at incoming traffic haha
Andy’s talent knows no bounds it seems
I love it how obvious it is that you carry Mors Principium Est. Phenomenal producer and musician
Carried*
I mean, they have great albums without him
@@Myfartslinger Dawn of the 5th era and Seven are insane in terms of production quality and layering. Master of the Dead is my all-time favourite song from them
Simps for Andy@@Myfartslinger
@@Myfartslinger I mean, sure, but...
I will never understand how this guy only has 16k subs... this is some of the best material I've ever listened to... Melodic, heavy and beautifully composed... You'd think this is mixed by Jens Bogren himself or something.
Thank you, means a lot 🤘
If I had to guess (and this by no means is intended to take anything away from sheer talent), it's a combination of a whole lot of OCD and perfectionism, lots of takes to get the perfect sound and tone and finger position, etc. I've seen some clips where Andy was thanking his girlfriend for being so patient while he recorded some takes and it was like "perfect or try again" .. like, lots of artists out there can shred and sweep and write cool shit, but I really think what makes Andy's work so fantastic is the "Andy" part of it - the non-musician part of it. I think it's important to recognize this because none of this feels "lucky" or "genetically blessed" to me - it feels like a whole lot of late nights and high standards and some of the most insane self-drive I've ever seen from an artist, and that shit should matter, I think 🤷🏻♂
Hey Andy.
Just want to let you know you are a True Inspiration to a lot of people.
Your Talent, skill and perseverance is second to none.
Always pushing through and never giving up.
Now Even picking up screaming and knocking it out of the park.
You will always be one of the greatest musicians on this planet to me.
Truly awe inspiring.
Keep MeloDeath alive ❤
Man that really means a lot to me, truly. ❤️🙏
The vocals! 🤩🔥🔥 It almost feels like you're a pokemon, who keeps levelling up and learning new attacks! 😄😄 Andy learned "Growling vocals" - it's super effective!
Hahaha, I love this! 😂
One man army over here! Vocals are incredible!
2:53 bro's sweeping taps have more melody on their own than most modern albums
feels like the best of MPE pieces 👍
I guess it's Andy doing what he does, but now under the best circumstances,
Obviously it sounds like MPE because he worte almost every track of the last four album of MPE. Just happy that he didn't stop.
Holy fuck, where did those monster gutterals come from.?!?!?! This filled a hole that the breakup of Mors left for me. Can't wait to hear the album Andy 🤘
Right? I think it's funny how he could replace them but they couldn't replace him 😆#derp
@@AlienWebguy This guy will go down as a titan of the melodeath genre.
Totally agree.
Dude, you're basically continuing Mors Principum Est on your own. And I mean that you're basically continuing to make some of the best Melo-Death but this time on your own terms.
And not a single dickhead to throw you out in sight.
This is exactly what I was hoping you would do! Looking forward to the album! Thank you so much!
WOW I'm impressed with harsh vocals tbh, I thought it would be another instrumental album
Oh shit Andy! The vocals are freaking awesome! I had no idea! 🤘
Me neither to be honest but what do you know haha. Thanks my dude!
Andy puts melodic into melodic death metal like no one else!
Screaming, crying, throwing up. This is SO GOOD. Expect nothing less from Andy!
That's quite a reaction! :D I hope you're doing ok, pal!
God damn Gilly! Amazing as always. Cheers!
:) Thank you!
I've considered you to be one of the absolute best melodic death metal composers and guitarists for years. The work you did in MPE especially on ADSL and the DOT5E are highlights of modern MDM and I am so glad to see you continuing to carry the torch even after your departure from the band. Really looking forward to the new record mate!
Just happy to still be doing it. Thanks for listening! 🤘
brings me back to my Sylosis days! love it dude. Keep bring us bANGERS
Hell yeah, how good are Sylosis!
Babe a new melodeath masterpiece has dropped
You just need to figure out how to simultaneously play drums and you can walk down the street one-man-band style laying down the sickest tracks where ever you go. As always, amazing job on the new release; can't wait to get my hands on the album!
Haha, that's the true end game dream right there! 😂
