The Conspiring and Spellbound

Andy Probably not the best Valiant album but there are certainly some excellent tracks. I do love low key menacing, nasty vocals overlaid on pretty little tunes. A simple formula that is pulled off with aplomb. Favorite track: Spellbind.

Cataclysmical I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this album, which bears resemblances (vocally) to Summoning, and instrumentally, to that of Eldamar and Lustre. My favourite song of the album, is 'Spellbind', with 'Ashes of War' being a close second. Well done to Valiant, for creating a captivating and awesome album! Favorite track: Spellbind.

Battlecry 03:00

Ashes of War 07:40
When I arrived, my legions conquered, Whats left is dead... I have come to redeem, myself for my honor, I am the necromancer! Battle cry, in this brutal fight, in ashes the enemy will die, War thunder, attack full force, wrath of the necromancer, The redeemer of souls, marking the end of an era, An era ruled by man, no will to evolve forever, No thought to empower, the gods seek blood, Redeem my honor! Burned corpses, ashes of war, doomed land, the end of an era, Death and destruction, along every step, the ashes of war! Battle cry, the empire will rise, slavery all will suffer, Redeem the deed, or risk death, The necromancer will rise, with no heroic force to rebel, The ashes of the world, in hell! Ashes of war, world on fire, ashes of war ending forever! Burned corpses, ashes of war, doomed land, the end of an era, Death and destruction, along every step, the ashes of war!

From realms of eternal solace, possibility occurs through the void, For the dimensions are closing, where the sound will echo forever, And the universe will dim the time, as a new era becomes... From realms of eternal solace, from realms of eternal solace, Penetrable darkness, all will bind... A new threat will break the land, the conspiring evil force. From the depths of the unknown, rises the shadow of the void, For an impending threat will be shown, Where the edge of the world folds, creation of man, another's foe, As eternal war rages... From realms of eternal solace, from realms of eternal solace, Penetrable darkness, all will bind... All will perish, all will perish!

Eradication of the soul, A debt to pay, for my power, The gods of destiny, seek their immortalization, March of the legion, begin the removal! The culling of the land, apocalyptic ending, A new age dawns, the age of darkness begun! For eternal power the gods require, the culling of the land. Eradication of the day, A debt to pay, for my power, The gods that seek, eternal life, Are weakened by, the dawn of time, March of my legions, the removal of the mass! The culling of the land, apocalyptic ending, A new age dawns, the age of darkness begun! Enlighten me, fulfill my deeds, carry me to my throne, What I need is indeed, power of which I can destroy, The world of man forever, The blood lust of the gods seek their payment! The culling of the land, apocalyptic ending, A new age dawns, the age of darkness begun!
5.
On a battle destroyed desert land, Men of honor, and loyalty lay, Frozen, beaten and bloody scarred, Rejoice this moment in a far life, For precious as gold, greed desires, The stench of death is looming higher Request no sympathy, request no grief, Instead lie a moment of honor, of relief, In the final hour, blood spilled on enemy keeps, to honor the fallen, a valiant belief. These blades of rune, without a master, The sands of dune, no day goes faster, A battle lost, but a war to still win, We will march on, new begin, Embrace defeat but blessed thy life, Of the survived, dead on another life. Request no sympathy, request no grief, Instead lie a moment of honor, of relief, In the final hour, blood spilled on enemy keeps, to honor the fallen, a valiant belief. (repeat)

The Old Age 05:42
I am the land, buried under sand, Long lost my friend, but another legend, I seek nothing but to be in harmony, With the ocean, the trees the soil, My hear beats discreetly, with the earth the mantle it will boil, To the anger of the betrayal, I have lost the love of the gods. Do you see how I am forgotten? It has been long since I moved on, I feel the end of my legacy, But I go on to inspire the ways of life. Bury me, and never recover, the soul drained from sorrow, What I created, just another tomorrow, A time when I was worshiped, When I was a legend, but now I am lost, I am the old age, I am the old way, I have been defeated, I will go on, To inspire whomever finds me. Do you see how I am forgotten? It has been long since I moved on, I feel the end of my legacy, But I go on to inspire the ways of life. To breathe the air of the saved world, I am the old age, I am the hero of time, There will be a time, when I return, After the era of darkness has had it's final reign< I am the old age, and I will return.

Welcome to the new world of the evil soul,

Spellbind 12:50
Awakened by end times, A shadow covering the land, A hope lost, beneath the sand, In the morning none rise, Before the mast could arrive, Sailing on to no sunrise. Order of oath, the allegiance of spell, Bound forever in oblivion, in isolation, Proclamation of the end of the world, Guided by false light, captivated spell, The lost souls, searching for absolution, Broken destiny.. Together in this spellbind forever, Together we are in shadow, This spellbind we are the enslaved, Forever, in the black darkness A shroud of nothing, and no one, Nothing more, could be proved, Nothing else, could stop harm, Forced into total obliteration, A mask of hope deceived the world, Fools & cowards, devoted to the cause, Oblivious to the lies, moved in deviously, Recklessly, endlessly... Order of oath, the allegiance of spell, Bound forever in oblivion, in isolation, Proclamation of the end of the world, Guided by false light, Captivated by spell, The lost souls, searching for absolution, Broken destiny. Together in this spellbind forever, Together we are in shadow, This spellbind we are the enslaved, Forever, in the black darkness, Together in this spellbind forever, Together we are in shadow, This spellbind we are the enslaved, Forever, in the black darkness.

Winds carry visions of my dream, Across misty mountain steam, Into the rivers of flowing life, Rife with blood of battle torn night I sit on my throne of souls, I am the one true king, Relentless in my malice Winds carry visions of despair, Across the horizon, a warm glare, Onto the ocean floor, collapsed dead, Lead astray, the killings of my regime I sit on my throne of souls, I am the one god of the world, Bow before me I've gained control, perished the old age, Under a spellbind, world under siege, Darkness will consume as I draw power
11.
This power it consumes, dark magic within my being, Ruins of chaos across this realm, All that I touch, becomes... barren, My soul has been forever tainted, In this dark realm I have painted I feel this surge of corruption, Within my being; I've lost control This dark magic within, no prevention of this surge, Ruins of chaotic dreams, severed across these plains, All that my magic has touched, destroyed by the darkness, Evil corruption in my soul, destroyed by the darkness I feel this surge of corruption, Within my being; I've lost control, I feel this surge of corruption, Within my being; I've lost control.

Void Vacuity 04:49
In this world of shadow, Conquered by a scourge of evil, In this void of emptiness, Destroyed by power, In this empire of shadows, Realms will breathe no longer, In darkness entranced in night, Never to see a beginning of light, In this new world of shadow. For ages ago, a scourge of evil, Arrived to battle, as conquerors, Ages of the spellbind, to enslave - legions of doom! From a new age, she comes, From a new age, she comes... A slumber within the depths, An ancient miracle of light, After the darkness settles in, Night will become day, With the spell fading away, Long lost to the glorious light. For ages ago, a scourge of evil, Arrived to battle, as conquerors, Ages of the spellbind, to enslave - legions of doom!

This realm of eternity, Cast a shadow of obscurity Visions seen, walked among the dream, Are what this world is and always will be, Do you see? This will be, cast a portal, Let them come forth to rule! The great sundering, torn apart, The great sundering, torn apart, The great sundering, torn apart. This realm of eternity, Drained of all it's majesty, Visions seen walked among the dream, Are dead, do you believe the moon will rise? Azure goddess, restore us, cleanse us, To rise against the necromancer, the great sundering! The great sundering, torn apart, The great sundering, torn apart, The great sundering, torn apart.

Azure Skies 04:15
Lady of the sky, dressed in white, Arriving forth on the dark site, With magic, she cleanses To restore the old age, forever. From skies of azure blue, she arrives, To vanish the darkness, it derives, Her quest to repel the spellbind, The beauty of her kind, The magic, she cleanses, To take back her creation. From skies of azure blue, she arrives, To vanish the darkness, it derives

In our body and our soul, We are singing a divine hymn, To a cascade of light, beaming from within, With a desperate prayer, We have reached out to majestic plains, To infuse us with fortitude to overcome this corrupted disdain. In our new age of timeless magic, Restored faithfully by a azure goddess Beyond the stars, dispel our curse, Protect us in battle, our body and soul. In our body and soul, We are beginning to resurrect, Rejuvenized in a age of never ending war, And if evil will grant corruption, We implore to walk among those who become, United against a common enemy, In this new new age of eternal solace. In our new age of timeless magic, Restored faithfully by a azure goddess Beyond the stars, dispel our curse, Protect us in battle, our body and soul.

The night has come, and the gates has been sealed, The rift between two worlds destroyed, and evil revealed, In this new year, the boundaries of darkness ends, And there shall be no more fear, The power of the arcane, none shall know, None shall be bestowed again, with power to conquer realms. Destroy their dreams of doom, let the night come too soon, And take away their power, no more shall they devour, In the ending of this conspiring to challenge the rest of the times. Throughout this war, through desert storm, From the evil portal, the rift is torn, The land in ruins, and in age to restore, When the dark ones return, ready the armies, And return goddess of light, In this power of prayer and hope, Faith in their protector of this world, For the demon lord knows no ends. Destroy their dreams of doom, let the night come too soon, And take away their power, no more shall they devour, In the ending of this conspiring to challenge the rest of the times.

When the winds dissipate. At the ends of the land, The dark magic it slumbers, Concealed deep below the sand, It consumes arcane power, And over the mountain, it begins, With darkness it will devour, Power, forever... evil to loom, To walk among this doom The end, it came too soon, To behold the end of dark times, Dark magic has been drained, And forward on, spellbound, Echoes of evil, resonates, One day of return, to the gates, And to unchain the oblivion it awaits, It awaits, to unchain, Arcane wielder, strong overseer, Azure goddess, the protector, Time and time, the winds will cry, Listen to the haunting howl, it will die, Until that fateful day arrives, No more battle cries... Darkness waits at the gates, To unmask the dark gods for hate, Until that day of fate we await.. For a day without light, Breeds an era of twilight, And on the horizon it awaits, Stone cold, no magic to create, Despite the chaos, it lives, To endless possibilities of life, Arcane power it despises, And when it arises, The world will not be prepared, For obliteration, it is near... Soon to seed runes of power, Soon to feed a final farewell, In the hour that doom will strike, Breed the judgement of times, And when the gods have come to die, The world will be free, And all will see the truth, right before their eyes, Before the eyes of the world, To uncover the truth, One day to return, to the gates, And to unchain the oblivion it waits... To unchain the oblivion it awaits. Darkness waits at the gates, To unmask the dark gods for hate, Until that day of fate we wait.. Darkness waits at the gates, To unmask the dark gods for hate, Until that day of fate we wait..

about

Archon present's the debut album for his new project, Valiant.

5th year anniversary unabridged featuring both The Conspiring and Spellbound in one place, the way the album was meant to be! Due to time constraints I decided to release them separately in 2016. Now here is the complete album, now available as a 2CD collection!

Valiant brings a new style of music to the cards. With epic instrumental sounds in the style of classical, medieval & ambient fused with the darkness of black metal, blended with the heaviness of distorted guitars, unclean vocals and rich authentic choir.


Merged for the 5th Anniversary 5/13/2021 now the complete album is available featuring the 2017 remasters!
