Metallurgical Fire Demonic Resurrection’s second album is by far my favorite. It’s a very melodic but fast paced record with killer riffs. I kind of prefer Jp to later drummers; he gives an aggressive performance. Favorite track: Frozen Portrait.

eep The song "Frozen Portrait" shatters a number of rules relating to time and continuity. Although I did not hear this album until 2019-2020ish, its sound inserts itself into my memoryscape from my college years around the turn of the century. It is exactly the type of thing then-me would be digging. A great second album for the band, but this track is the winner for me. Favorite track: Frozen Portrait.

Tom McDonald This was my first DR album, way back in 2005/2006. Totally blown away by the high quality music being put out by these guys so early in their career. Remains one of my favourite death metal albums. Favorite track: Apocalyptic Dawn.

In my dreams, I dream of the living dead Walking From the grave a hand appears I don’t know if I'm dreaming Suddenly before my eyes Demons begin to appear They want my body they need my soul to keep their own Dreams of the dead They’re closing in, I’m losing speed I fall they come, to devour me Suddenly I wake and it’s all a dream Dreams of the dead The earth begins to obliviate Far away from here Leaving behind no trace Gone into another world

A shadow falls upon the earth This is the coming of our nemesis Slowly we watch as their armies descend We are prepared for battle We will fight until the end Till every soul has passed We’ll never let them take our lands We’ll fight them till our deaths Seek not the coming tranquility in days of darkness that fall The darkness is spreading fast and its black shroud engulfs us all And hell descended upon us Like a raging flame, spreading through the trees Destroying all life in its path, destruction and devastation I see Lands of kings and might of men will not reign supreme In this world that’s tormented by darkness, infested by demons The future has been sealed Up in arms we prepare for the final conflict, prepare for the coming storm They come from the darkness of the nether regions, seeking power and eternal domination War Cries, the silence dies Impeding doom, we shall deny Sentence all your destinies to the after life, in total oblivion We shall not fall in darkness, we shall stand and fight Rid the world from the harness of the evil demons Over lands and souls of ours, we shall deny them life King of darkness we wage war on you against your vile plague. We wont fall before you Succumb to your sword We'll wage this war The shadow of darkness has fallen before us This war is won Into the future we step forth With dreams we go

In him we believe, we pray, we trust We believe the lie, we believe his existence Used for control, a source of power For all that's evil on this earth Behind the mask of God Lie cruel human intentions Used to exploit The ignorant human being For him, we give all that we have But all is lost into the hands of politics He was made by men, to hold control Over the masses, the millions of people Behind the mask of God Lie cruel human intentions Used to exploit The ignorant human being How much longer will this go on? How much time will it take? For the world to realize there is nothing there? To open their minds to the truth To show them the real purpose of GOD! Behind the mask of God Lie cruel human intentions Used to exploit The ignorant human being

Infernal forces loom above you Your journey to depravity begins now While you sleep, images forming The blur begins to shape See him rise before your eyes And he beckons Step inside the circle Where bodies lie waste Welcome to my show Malefic and depraved Silence... breaks the screams Unveiling A forsaken land which lies desolate Home to terror, hidden in wait A home to your fears A wailing wind of the chilling kind Encompasses the circus you find Encompassing evil Step inside the circle Where bodies lie waste Welcome to my show Malefic and depraved Haunting dreams of torture fill your mind This is a carnival you can’t leave behind Relinquish your spirit to forces unknown Abandon all hope, as you wont go home The dancing queens of horror Demented ogres and fiendish gnomes All part of the show The blood stains in ring Tells the stories of bleak times Of savage beasts and dying screams Of the victims that had died The wicked clowns did run around To do the ringmasters bidding

Long forgotten, broken skies New life, denied Forsaking the journey tried Passage forth, denied Left to roam the earth alone Long forgotten, forlorn Trapped between worlds unknown Roaming the mountains in hope Lost in time, searching souls Lost forever in worlds Finding the road that leads to home Finding the path of snow and stones Searching for the answer hidden Searching for the reason Mountains bleeding, standing tall Haunting spirits, reborn Icy peaks breed cold souls All immortal, never grow old Sweeping shivers across the land Feeling their presence at this hand Slowly descending from worlds unknown From the old lands, disowned Lost in time, searching souls Lost forever in worlds Finding the road that leads to home Finding the path of snow and stones Searching for the answer hidden Searching for the reason Spirits of the mystic mountains They lived forever, lived deep inside Now you’ve uncovered the past you cannot hide It’s too late, your dying cries denied Lost in time, searching souls Lost forever in worlds Finding the road that leads to home Finding the path of snow and stones Searching for the answer hidden Searching for the reason

This world of pain and death, hate and tyranny A war that's left a trail of dead So many years of darkness pending So many lives lost in the killing My tears haven’t found their dead Paint a picture with countless shades of red This world that lies before us is dead A shadow covers the sky, and black reigns through day and night Beware the coming plague upon mankind But even in time when all hope is lost, we find a ray of hope The shinning light is a passage to the shadowlands Guide me master, through the land of darkness Past the fiends and demonkind I travel swift among the mist and fog This journey of mine must be concealed I will not fail you father I will not fail you master The path before unveils past The darkness leaving me behind The key to hope is within my grasp There is hope tonight Where the shadows lie I will not fail you now This task is mine to complete I shall not fail you brothers I will come through the dark Spreading through the world I can feel the darkness breeding Time is of the essence and the clock is slowly ticking The hour of extinction is at hand Come not without aid by your side The dark forces have grown stronger from within Come through the darkness Bring with you light There is hope tonight Where the shadows lie We shall not bow down before them Perish we shall, but not enslaved I will not fail you now I will come through the dark There is hope tonight Where the shadows lie My tears haven’t found their dead It is not fate intervening We have carved our destiny The path has been made We built this kingdom alone

Watch me ride Into the night As the darkness descends on me Watch me ride Into the night Into the forest I walk alone Down the winding path, through trees I feel their eyes fastened upon me I feel their evil stare Amongst the shadows I dwell Surrounded by the darkness Embraced by the emptiness I feel the curse upon my soul Watch me ride Into the night As the darkness descends on me Watch me ride Into the night Over the forest a darkness descends Slowly uncovers the creatures of night At one with the forest I am At one with the evil forever Amongst the shadows I dwell Surrounded by the darkness Embraced by the emptiness I feel the curse upon my soul Frozen Eyes stare deep inside Deep inside of me Darkened shrines breed demon life Demons for the coming Watch me ride Into the night As the darkness descends on me Watch me ride Into the night

Grim cold caverns, standing at the edge of the earth. Wretched little spawn, sitting at the helm of all he surveys. Bones of the dead and obscure trivial things, From the depths of hell, and of magical origin. Amassed with intent for invoking of the demons. Advent darkness ascertains commencement Of pagan rituals, to summon forth The legions of demons who shall rise from the dead And come to the bidding of the wretched little one Thundering skies Panoptic gray clouds of doom From which the lightning strikes The encompassing vile wind Ravaging the cold barren land From bloodied heavens, hell descends A raging fury in the form of pure evil And blood that falls in form of rain Marks the coming of invoked demons

A silent shiver sweeps the land An eerie feeling of cold Far away in the distance From beneath the snow I hear the pounding Of a heart, beating slow Oh, ice maiden let your heart go Lost in time, long ago, lost forever Now I go all-alone, in search of answers Her kingdom of cold, is mine to find Her heart I’ll melt, make forever mine This is my quest and no one can deny me this Oh ice maiden on thy throne A shadowed land beneath the snow, conquered not Land of ice, land of frost, forever been lost Her kingdom of cold, is mine to find Her heart I’ll melt, make forever mine This is my quest and no one can deny me this Oh ice maiden on thy throne I hear you call my name Calling me, again and again I know there is nothing to fear But still I fear everything I found you now and vanquished your throne Your kingdom’s lost and forever will be gone
11.
I Summon Thee Forth. I call upon thee, lord of darkness and terror Unleash your fury on this mortal race Oh father, abandon us not in this hour of need Lead us far from this coming oblivion. From this life to your demonic soul With my divine power, fear not this coming darkness For I shall protect you till this life eludes me My death shall not be in vain From flesh to stone From here you shall not pass I stand before you now Destiny will follow through And this is how I die In my deepest slumber Through fields of torment my soul will pass Let me walk free Distorted images of life, slowly flashing The scars of my past never receding Curse me now into darkness I will withstand this punishment The meeting of minds, the erupting of thought Foresee the darkness that ravages your kind Believe the evil, succumb to its possession The power of demons that’s merged in your mind As the sun seeps through the smoke And the world looks desolate and drained While the blood drips from the tip of the sword There lies the warrior unslain Dead eyes Dead eyes that see no future Through my eyes witness my torment See the horror that only I've seen Relive my fears, feel my anguish My testament will be my legacy
