Ashes of War is about the gods returning to take over their creation, and rule the world. Marking the end of the old era.
(This is the remastered version from 2017)
lyrics
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!
Valiant is an Epic Black Metal project by Archon founded in 2016, writing about ancient civilizations Lemuria and Atlantis, and the spiritual message through those legendary tales.
One of the first black metal songs I heard that featured piano as a key instrument, and it's since influenced much of my tastes in metal. Fantastic EP that never grows old no matter how often I listen to it. Caleb Bratcher
