about

Based on Robert E. Howard story "The Screaming Skull of Silence"

lyrics

Out there in the distance
In a remote and barren land
There’s a prison made of stone
Holding the absolute silence

And the last man of Atlantis
Wished to challenge the horror
So the mighty warriors came
To face the essence of silence

Heroes set off to find the ultimate demon
To harness ghastly form of evil
Ominous powers dissent, inflicting madness
While men don’t realize the danger

The wayward perverseness
Is a common fault of kings
So when the chance occurred to burst the seal
King’s grip was firm and the blade’s cut bold

Thus the spirit of silence was released
Ethereal forces reached to clutch all source of sound

Heroes set off to find the ultimate demon
To harness ghastly form of evil
Ominous powers dissent, inflicting madness
While men don’t realize the danger

To bathe in surreal ocean
Strange waves of nothingness
As blood screams boiling in your veins

Contemporaneous ideas
Give way to ancient ways
As mallet swing cuts through the air

Shadows crawling back against the wall
Trying to escape the mallet call
Now the time has frozen still
Shall fiend succumb to guardian’s will?
Or shall the world not see the day?

The gong answered with a scream of sea
The pulsing remedy to silence
Then the silence faltered, overwhelmed by the noise
Forced to give way to command of but a mortal man

… And the silence screamed

The band came back to life in 2010 with new songs and new members, getting a new chance to shine among Poland’s metal scene, which resulted in a lot of gigs and two studio albums. ... more
