I laid myself down into bed To sleep away the night A vision from inside my head A sun with no sunlight Death would grip humanitiy A new Solar Ice Age An Earth that no science could save I woke sweatrunning down my face I never felt so strange To think that this could be our fate To freeze in darkened pain Then sleep brought back the dreams to me Of wars to turn the tide The world committing nuclear suicide Inside this hazy world of dreams I've never known I've seen the wrath come down and turn mankind to stone And then I realized that this be Eschatus A holocaust of flames to burn Midgard to dust It has been called by many names throughout the years Still they all mean the same, man burning in his fears The Anti-Christ will come and rise up through the sea The Dreams of Eschaton have shown this all to me Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die Remember well my friend a warlord never cries These are the words that I've heard inside my mind When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time I hope that can see that this is not a game We don't just sing to thee to win fortune and fame The souls of all of us are priceless to the last These dreams could be our fate of living life too fast And so I say to thee watch the skies above For when the darkness falls and rivers turn to blood Then Arthur shall return to fight for peace and truth To slay the beast of hell and save the righteous few Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die Remember well my friend a warlord never cries These are the words that I've heard inside my mind When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time
A cliche tale but I was listening to this album in bed half-asleep until the screaming and tense synth sounds shook me wide awake. It felt like I was having a nightmare in some hypnagogic state. Would recommend.
Man I remember listening to this shit back in highschool like freshman sophomore year. Was listening to Crystal Logic and when this track came back so many things came rushing back. That solo is timeless. Crystal Logic is a classic album, shout out to Manilla Road
The darkthrone guys are huge fans of classic metal, and even borrowed some lyrics here and there as a homage to their inspirations, such as in Earth's Last Picture where nocturno culto sings: We sail the seas of negativity, to banish kindness from this place". Obviously a nod towards Manilla Road's The Veils of Negative Existence.
I remember myself 20 years ago when i was 15, I was into my bed with an old radio- cd-tape next to me, i had it on a chair to listen heavy metal and fall asleep. I had a tape on it with Mannila road, Cirith Ungol, Exodus, Dark Angel and some more. This tape was a gift from a friend. I hear this song 20 years after, i never forget the music, the friend, the song, the moment.
I was listening to angel of death by angel witch and I was reading the comments and someone mentioned this awesome songs riff was similar to angel of death 🤘
It’s not similar, it’s literally blatant plagiarism. However, this is totally fine by me if you happen to improve upon it, and not many could have other than Mark Shelton.
This song has expanded a part of my brain I never knew I had I feel as though I have grown as a person just by listening to it and that I share a connection to this piece deeper than that I share with any person or group of people
I will never forget the advice you've graced me with. Know that true and truly. May whatever world you end up on be grateful for your musical blessings. Continue to kick ass, and rest as you shall.
Hearing Sheltons voice and watching that horned skull really can't make me think of anything else than Skeletor fronting a Metal band xD A true legend, wherever you are I hope you're rocking it out Mr Mark! R.I.P
Not a criticism but there's a riff here that sounds just like the main riff of ANGEL OF DEATH, by Angel Witch. Both are great songs, and both bands are terrific.
some of the riffs sound in this song remind of parts of "for whom the bell tolls" I guess its a compliment from Metallica since your song was released first.

These lyrics are relevant more than ever in the impending dark age upon us...
RIP Mark Shelton. True underground heavy metal GOD.

I laid myself down into bed
To sleep away the night
A vision from inside my head
A sun with no sunlight
Death would grip humanitiy
A new Solar Ice Age
An Earth that no science could save
I woke sweatrunning down my face
I never felt so strange
To think that this could be our fate
To freeze in darkened pain
Then sleep brought back the dreams to me
Of wars to turn the tide
The world committing nuclear suicide
Inside this hazy world of dreams I've never known
I've seen the wrath come down and turn mankind to stone
And then I realized that this be Eschatus
A holocaust of flames to burn Midgard to dust
It has been called by many names throughout the years
Still they all mean the same, man burning in his fears
The Anti-Christ will come and rise up through the sea
The Dreams of Eschaton have shown this all to me
Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die
Remember well my friend a warlord never cries
These are the words that I've heard inside my mind
When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time
I hope that can see that this is not a game
We don't just sing to thee to win fortune and fame
The souls of all of us are priceless to the last
These dreams could be our fate of living life too fast
And so I say to thee watch the skies above
For when the darkness falls and rivers turn to blood
Then Arthur shall return to fight for peace and truth
To slay the beast of hell and save the righteous few
Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die
Remember well my friend a warlord never cries
These are the words that I've heard inside my mind
When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time
Thank you \m/
Is the band prophetic?
@@LichLordNemo yes, I just wanted to write that. It's like they saw what is about to happen.
Epic, legendary song.
the begining of this song is so good. that I wanted to cry, how much this is good.
Even more now, knowing that this voice is gone.
Remember well my friend
A warlord never cries
@@dirtpoorkiceking7838 call me the weeping warlord man :(
@T-Rex не один
sounds like Yes
This intro is genuinely one of the most epic things I have ever heard. Chills every time.
A cliche tale but I was listening to this album in bed half-asleep until the screaming and tense synth sounds shook me wide awake. It felt like I was having a nightmare in some hypnagogic state. Would recommend.
R.I.P. Mark Shelton. Thank you so much for this, and many other epic/awesome tracks. You're sorely missed.
R.I.P Mike Shelton
May The Road of The Kings will take you to Valhalla
Man I remember listening to this shit back in highschool like freshman sophomore year. Was listening to Crystal Logic and when this track came back so many things came rushing back. That solo is timeless. Crystal Logic is a classic album, shout out to Manilla Road
Farewell Shark.May the Lords of Light be with You
Heavy Metal to the Bone
The man was forged in steel💪🤘😠. VALHALLA beckoned him.
RIP Master :(
These Guys, Cirith Ungol and Legend were all amazing bands that helped pioneer an amazing genre!
Legend! Shame we only got one album.
Rest in Dreams of Eschaton.
I sold my soul to Manilla Road!
Manilla Road: *plays riff at **1:56*
Darkthrone: "I'll take your entire stock!"
The darkthrone guys are huge fans of classic metal, and even borrowed some lyrics here and there as a homage to their inspirations, such as in Earth's Last Picture where nocturno culto sings: We sail the seas of negativity, to banish kindness from this place".
Obviously a nod towards Manilla Road's The Veils of Negative Existence.
The riff is from angel witch angel of death
Leave some for Messiah
This is one of the few songs that you can enjoy as much as the very first time every time you listen to it, so great, a complete masterpiece.
Epicus Metallicus. With a proggy touch. Amazing. 💪🤘❤
Instrumental part starting at 6:30 is like the dungeon crawl music in an old school RPG, especially the bass line
Indeed

2:42 the riff is extremely similar to the main riff of Angel of Death by Angel Witch. The song is perfect
I was listening to angel of death by angel witch and I was reading the comments and someone mentioned this awesome songs riff was similar to angel of death 🤘
It’s not similar, it’s literally blatant plagiarism. However, this is totally fine by me if you happen to improve upon it, and not many could have other than Mark Shelton.
I was listening to the song before and thought to myself "fuck me this sounds alot like AngelWitch's Angel of Death" haha. Both good tunes tho
Rest In Peace Mark Shelton
One of the best metal songs of all time!
This song has expanded a part of my brain I never knew I had I feel as though I have grown as a person just by listening to it and that I share a connection to this piece deeper than that I share with any person or group of people
fucking legend, i will listen to this till i'm dead
Keep their asses metal up there Mark🤘🎸
Real metal!
Most beautiful intro EVER
The guitar riffage in this song is Incredible
But lets not ignore the bass especially in the instrumental part of the song
Its kinda psychedelic
sic transit gloria mundi.........
I will never forget the advice you've graced me with.
Know that true and truly.
May whatever world you end up on be grateful for your musical blessings.
Continue to kick ass, and rest as you shall.
Profetic lyrics!
Such beautiful poetry. The singer was a prophet of sorts
Mlkes auto einai o orismos ths old school metal Respect!! Manila road, Kreator, Diamond Head, Metallica , Iron Maiden, Megadeth
Rip master...
Such a great album. Everything about this album, Manilla Road rules. Thanks Mark, for all the awesome metal \m/
Hearing Sheltons voice and watching that horned skull really can't make me think of anything else than Skeletor fronting a Metal band xD
A true legend, wherever you are I hope you're rocking it out Mr Mark!
R.I.P
R.I.P. Mark Shelton

Επική κομματάρα!!!

Epic Metal bordering on Weirdness
Riff is so heavy perfection
We can all thank Kevin Heybourne for that.
EPIC!!
This is so good... Why didn't I find this band before??
Ouvindo agora 🤟🤟🇧🇷
Not a criticism but there's a riff here that sounds just like the main riff of ANGEL OF DEATH, by Angel Witch.
Both are great songs, and both bands are terrific.
some of the riffs sound in this song remind of parts of "for whom the bell tolls" I guess its a compliment from Metallica since your song was released first.
I would say that the riff is exactly the same of Angel of Death by Angel Witch
Ym, CL was released in '83.
So this was AW inspiration from AoD, but this have more deep lyric and beautiful solo.
wow!
Riff reminds me of Angel Witch, "Angel Of Death."

"""""I laid myself down into bed

To think that this could be our fate
To freeze in darkened pain
