How can it be that the deranged, impulsive, and deteriorating mind can completely overule any and all sense of morality and reason? That question cannot be presented to the inflicted soul if you really want the answer, they don't realize it's happening. But we have some experience in this area....let Quimby explain it to you in "Blood On The Blade"!
lyrics
LOST MY MIND TODAY TO FIND
THAT SOMEONE SPILLED THEIR LIFE
ECHOES OF SCREAMS AND LAUGHTER
AND FRIGHT TO BE SEEN WITH THE KNIFE
AND ALL THIS TIME I KNEW THAT IT WASN'T RIGHT
TRAPPED IN RUINS INSIDE MYSELF
I AWAKE FROM SLEEP AT NIGHT
BLACKENED DAYS FOREVER BOUND
THE CHAINS OF LIFE ARE TIGHT
AND ALL THIS TIME I KNEW THAT IT WASN'T RIGHT
THE LIGHT OF DAY HAS COME, IT'S GOT ME IN A TRANCE
FROM THE SKIES WITH THE BLOOD ON THE BLADE
NOW I FELL MY DARKEST DAYS HAVE COME
SCREAMS OF VIOLENCE FILL YOUR EARS
YOU CAN'T TAKE IT NO MORE
RAISE YOUR VOICES AND SCREAM
TAKE THE WAND WITH THE BLOOD ON THE BLADE
THEY'LL FEEL YOUR DARKEST KNIFE

My favorite material from Solstice! Despite their amazing discography that lay before this that completely set the foundation, this in my opinion is where it all comes to a mighty peak. What an amazing emotional and powerful picture painted in such a short amount of time. Talon Sullivan

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse
