We've all been alone in a strange, eerie place...haven't we? Then surely you've experienced first hand the feeling that something...a being, or a presence of some kind is watching your every move. You've sensed the stare, you've felt the breath on the back of your neck...then perhaps you've fallen victim to the "Gleam Of The Skull".
lyrics
AS THE CLOCK STRIKES MIDNIGHT
YOUR SPINE SHRIEKS
AS IF SOMETHING IS WATCHING, A DEMON OR A BEAST
AS YOU REACH THE ATTIC, RATS HEAR YOUR STEPS
BUT AWAY IN THE CORNER HE WATCHES
YOU MAKE YOUR QUEST
HEED, THE POWER OF THE SKULL
IT'S THE GLEAM THAT TAKES EVERY
BREATH IN YOUR HEART
GLEAM OF THE SKULL, TRAPPED IN YOUR SOUL
YOUR HEART TURNS TO STONE
WITH THE GLEAM OF THE SKULL
HIS EYES GLOW WITH AN OMINOUS TONE
WITH THE GLEAM OF THE SKULL
FELL HIM PENETRATING INSIDE
FEEL THE SKULL SHINE
THERE'S THE COLD TOUGHING TONITE
TURN AWAY FROM THE LIGHT
LOOK FOR YOUR FEARS INSIDE

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
