The one and only Skullview religion song. Earthquake had attended church before, so we let him figure out what to say about Leviticus, since the rest of us had no idea what it was about...but it sounded like a good song title to use nonetheless.
lyrics
UPON THE BRONZE ALTAR
COMMENCE THE BURNT OFFERING
GIVE ME THE SCRIPTURE
AND TELL ME I'M FORGIVEN
FOR THE SINS THAT COMMAND ME
TO OFFER MY GIFT OF GOLD
PRESENT ME WITH THE RITUAL
PRESENT ME WITH THE SACRIFICE
I AM OF UNCLEAN MOTIVES
I STAND ON AN ALTAR STAINED WITH BLOOD
GIVE ME THE POWER, LEVITICUS
I RESPECT THE LAWS YOU'VE WRITTEN
I FEEL SALTED WITH FIRE
WATCHING AND WAITING
FOR TIME TO TICK SLOWLY
MY SOUL SEEMS SO WEAK
AND i CAN'T SEEM TO FOCUS
BRING ME MY CHALICE OF WINE
LET US DRINK FROM THE FOUNTAIN OF BELIEF
AND SHOW ME THE SIGN
WITH EYES WIDE OPEN
I SEE THE BOOK OF LIES
REPEAT FROM THE SCRIPTURES
AND TELL ME THE STORIES
SO I CAN REMEMBER
HOW TO REPENT FOR MY GLORIES
PRESENT ME WITH THE RITUAL
PRESENT ME WITH SACRIFICE
I AM OF UNCLEAN MOTIVES
I STAND ON AN ALTAR STAINED WITH BLOOD
GIVE ME THE POWER, LEVITICUS
I RESPECT THE LAWS YOU'VE WRITTEN
I FEEL SALTED WITH FIRE
TAKE ME TO A SPECIAL PLACE
FLY ME TO THE HEAVENS ABOVE
HELP ME SEEK THE KEY TO THE GATES
TO THE KINGDOM WHERE THE ANGELS FLY
HE SHALL BE THE ONE WHO LEADS
MANY WORLDS FOR THE END OF TIME
LEVITICUS IS THE BOOK OF LAW
FOR MANY HAVE RISEN FROM ABOVE
BLOOD MUST BE SPILLED
FOR THE GOOD OF REPENTENCE
ONWARD TO THE SACRIFICE OF CHRIST
EVERYONE SHALL BE SALTED WITH FIRE
A BURNT OFFERING FOR THE SACRIFICE
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
Blazing True Metal from Sweden, Mace'n'Chain are ready to storm the gates with mighty vocal melodies and blistering riffs. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2023
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
