| 1. Hammer Of Destruction
Axes - like Sirens - Slicing through the Air
You run for shelter - this hell you can not bear
Pounding Inferno - Pure Steel inside black veins
Where demons dare to thread - heavy metal reigns
Death falls from the Sky
There’s no escape - you die

 Классического хэви-метала, как, впрочем, и любого другого стиля, бывает два вида – хороший и плохой. Первого, что вполне естественно, меньше, а второго – больше, иначе, как тогда первое отделялось бы от второго? Так вот, Sacred Steel являются ярчайшими представителями второго лагеря, – убогий непоставленно-мерзостный вокалист, пищащий про “sword” и “demons”, а также про “glory” и, конечно же, “steel”; донельзя клишированные и совершенно бездарно поданные риффы начала 80-х с характерным для того времени звуком и пионерским звучанием heavy/thrash’a и прочие радости жизни – и это все, простите, на пятом альбоме группы и в 2006 году? Однако… Но проблема этой записи не в том, что она далека от оригинальности или слишком пропахла нафталином (в конце концов, полно примеров, когда команды с похожим звучанием слушать не только интересно, но и здорово), проблема в том, что материал “Hammer of Destruction” неинтересен, и, что греха таить, убог. Остается только догадываться, каким гурманам может понравиться подобная запись, может, только тем, кто родился глухим от рождения или потерял слух после какой-нибудь неудачной аварии? Впрочем, чего еще ждать от альбома с такой обложкой… (Диск предоставлен компанией Mazzar) |

Bloodhammer of destruction - pound to desecrate
Hammer of war - Hammer of Sin
Bloodhammer bring destruction - carnage victory
Obey the Law of the hammer of destruction
We are free to do just what we will
Our destiny - charge into overkill
This is the law - no compromise - no fucking way
Just truth - no lies – it’s judgement day
Now choose your side – there’s just one way
From death comes live
Now bang your head and go fucking insane
Steel bolts of lightning shooting through your hearts
Impaled by metal – it’s that the burning starts
Enraged by anger you raise your fists to the sky
Bonded as brothers we’ll remain - until the day we die
Obey the Law or the hammer - or the hammer - falls on you
2. Where Demons Dare To Tread
Raging inside me - Demons of the past
I am a madman - spells can never last
Possessed by theythm - metal in my blood
No exorcism an heal me - in hell I will rot
You can not save me from my demons
There is no hope no more
I’m more addicted than before
There is no hope no more
Music inside me - echoes of my dreams
I am forlorn - you know just what I mean
A lifetime of metal - I can - I will not change
I’d do this all again - there is no other way
In hell I must pay for my demons
There is no hope no more
25 years of metal war
There is no hope no more
Demons haunt my soul - they speak to me
Spirits take control – don’t set me free
Metal made me whole - it is my god
It is my soul - it is my blood
3. Maniacs Of Speed
Behold the writing on the wall - sceptics watch in awe
Scriptures ancient and forbidden - unveiling the law
It’s the dawn of fate - forever you are now enslaved
It’s the dawn of fate - forever - you can not be saved
Mass destruction - Mind corruption
Architects of Death and Fear
Yield to hell - succumb to horror
For your soul - no tomorrow
Hail to them - spread the seed
Maniacs of power and speed
Signs of death - apocalypse - in doom’s face you stare
You can see them fast descending - the new gods are here
Arise - Merchans of Deceit
Arise - For the Gods you bleed
4. Blood And Thunder
Trapped in hell and purified by pain
High above the witches ride again
By the wrath of the unborn we rise
Unfettered from the bindings of Christ
Victory of Black Steel - Iron Legions march
Open wide the brimstone gate
Break the Spell of death by blood and thunder
Blood is on my steel - for more I lust
My dark pagan heart blessed by the gods
When I fall then lay me to my grave
In life and death - master of my fate
Victory of Black Steel - Iron Legions march
Open wide the Gates of hell
Break the spell of death by blood and thunder
Crucified in heaven is their king
Pierced and torn by sacred bloody steel
Priests perform the rites of sacrifice
The oath of blood is sworn to let them die
Crush the holy - save the damned from hell
Carnage rules the battlefields itself
Dethrone the tyrant king who reigns supreme
You darkest saviour’s slaughter prophecy
Victory of black steel - Iron legions march
Open wide the brimstone gate
Break the Spell of death by blood and thunder
5. Impaled By Metal
Maniacs of speed and power - gather anxiously
Come together - sons of metal - warriors of steel
Celebrate our hymns of iron - shout out from the heart
Raise the horns - show your devotion - led the madness start
Now!
Storm up to the front row - join your brothers in the pit
Get high on adrenaline - the fires of hell are lit
Through and through the metal flows - the mighty gods we hail
Sacrifice you blood to them - by metal impaled
Rise up legions - from the grave
Rise up legions - strong and brave
If metal’s dead - the dead walk the earth
Straight out of hell into rebirth
We’re reborn into the light - impaled by metal
Passion born out of despair
We don’t fucking care what you believe – it’s right
Impaled by metal we’re tonight
Metal rules tonight
Listen children of the spirit to the truth we speak
Loudness - Energy - Aggression – It’s all that we need
We’re reborn in steel - united and strong
We’re reborn in steel - let the wargods guide us ever, guide us ever on
Join us in the fight!
6. Descent Of A Lost Soul
[Instrumental]
7. Black Church
Each sinner a nail in the myth of the grail
I can not forget nor forgive – don’t forgive
I spit on the lie - I spit on your Christ
If now I must burn - so be it
Black is the well - the black soul of hell
I hear them calling my name - come join us here
Enter the lair – they’re waiting there
In this nocturnal domain
The Black Church - welcome neopythe
Become one with the night
Hell is my home - hell is my throne
I am a soul in the pit – don’t forgive
Detached from God - I fell unto Satan
My pyre of damnation was lit
No need to bow - no need to repent
I roam in here with my friends
The fools of the grail - yes - they have failed
Their lord of hosts - nailed again
Aeterne rerum conditor, noctem diemque qui regis,
Et temporum das tempora, ut alleves fastidium
Hoc excitatus lucifer, solvit polum
8. Generally Hostile
[Jag Panzer cover]
Town clock echo splits the night,
the witching hour moves even closer to the brink of time that is at hand.
Sound of heels pound the street from the curse that rules the town.
Chill of death has come to reap the damned.
For years ago he went away and now he's back to claim
the unsuspected souls to justify his death.
Oh, foolish one, you'd best make haste. There is no time
to contemplate. The hammer brings the twelfth and your last breath.
He's the one who holds the night in the hollow of his hand.
Evil reigning ruler of the dark
Striking with a furious urge, a thunderbolt from hell.
Everything he touches bears his mark.
Seeking no amusement in any lovers foolish games
but go ahead and let them all begin.
He lives his life in malice, not a single night in shame.
Burning bright the everlasting flames of sin.
I'm a man who shows no mercy for the weak.
No mercy! [Repeat]
Dangling at the end of your rope, can't you see it's 'round your neck
Desolation of another kind.
Your head's in heaven flying high. Your heart's in hell burning lust
Infatuation's always in your mind
You're the perfect sinner, yes, the one who stabbed me
in the back. You've got no guts, just like the rest.
Thrust my blade in, give a twist, tear a scream from your lips.
One o'clock takes your final breath.
9. Plague Of Terror
Can you feel the cold chill in the air
Damned souls - They have risen from their lair
Can't you read the signs - They're clear to see
Death immortal claims mortality
Come forth - Break through from the depths of hell
Mortals - Beware - Hear the demon bell
From the land of the dead we rise to fly
Plague of terror
To the land of the living - Prey in sight
Plague of terror
Your judgment day it has arrived
Plague of terror - Rise
Darkening the sky - Black legion's wings
Loyal to the crown of their dark king
Falling from the sky - Hell's plague of doom
Mankind dies - The earth it's silent tomb
"Ladies and gentlemen. This will be our last broadcast.
Evil incarnate has conquered our world.
It seems like there's no way to escape the wrath of the undead legions
that have emerged from hell.
May God be with us! Harris Johns for CNN network."
[Solo: Jonas]
10. Sword And Axes
Sword and axes - Until we die
Striking force - Uncompromising steel
An entity born of conviction - Oh so real
An entity born out of dedication pure
Come watch us play - See what I mean for sure
You all shall be hacked or slain or torn
Submit to mutilation - In the carnage be reborn
Sword and axes - Raise the banner high
Sword and axes - Into the sky
Sword and axes - Let our banner fly
Sword and axes - Until we die
Metal horde - We are part of thee
We're all the same - Knights bound by blood and blasphemy
We're all the same - For in our hearts we bear the grail
Black grail of steel - Thy power we hail
Heart - Soul and mind - Hellbent for metal
Metal is life - Metal's alive
11. The Torch Of Sin
Born within the heart of Rock 'n Roll - Heaviness
Implanted in a horde of hungry souls - Starved to death
Torn out from the dark into the light - A force revealed
Torn apart the lies you've had inside - By black steel
It is done - The plague is unleashed
It is done - We broke the seal
We bear the torch - The torch of sin
As hymns of praise to steel we sing
We bear the torch - Black fires rage
The torch of sin - It burns to light our ways
Have you heard the voice of steel within - It is there
Have you ever felt the touch of sin - Tempting - Fair
Are you sure you have not seen the light - See it shine
The torch of sin is burning in the night - Heed the sign
[Solo: Jonas]
Does Satan hold the future of us all - I think not
Who pulls the strings - Are we doomed to fall - Damned by God
We don't care - We just do what we please - In this hell
Don't need a cure for what you call disease - Fuck yourself
