I'm pleased to be back with even more Halloween music, in fact a whole EP of it! "Scarlet Vow" tells the story of a village girl who escaped a sentence to be burned at the stake, only to return to that town the very next October to pass a judgement of her own.

Lyrics:
Scared off all the townsmen with a question as to why
We must avoid the night and say a prayer before we die
"There's structure in tradition" cried the minister with rage
While burning every book that carries magic on the page
Said you'd set her right with god and tried to teach her how
Told her be a good girl well she's stronger than you now
Casting off the shackles to reject her given name
The one who burns the witches always ends up in the flame
Lock your doors
She's coming back even out the score
Vengeful spirits do her dark commands
In the devil's hands
Now the fire's in her breath
Scarlet vow
Taken by the girl who you cast out
You're not the only one with chants to sing
Or a prayer to bring
But her patron saint is death
In the night there's howling but there's silence from the pack
The cold wind carries something that alludes to an attack
She's here to light the matches with a new enchanted form
Taking her own action so the victim is reborn
Holding out their crosses at the edges of the town
Believed your faith protected but she's here to burn you down
Pray your final whispers and reflect upon your guilt
The monster you created will end everything you've built
Lock your doors
She's coming back even out the score
Vengeful spirits do her dark commands
In the devil's hands
Now the fire's in her breath
Scarlet vow
Taken by the girl who you cast out
You're not the only one with chants to sing
Or a prayer to bring
But her patron saint is death
Fire high above her head
Red magic back again
When she swore herself to crimson
It granted righteous scorn
Wrapped loose in blasphemy
A tight noose upon your tree
The blood is spilled as justice
And a scarlet reign is born - Hudba
And thus did the harvest spirits say: "Fuck around and find out!"
Feels like the story is based around the phrase "A child cast out by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth", with the added layer of a witch trial leading to a tale of revenge. I like it!
Got an almost The Mariner's Revenge vibe to it.
Beautiful! I like that comparison a lot. What can be more frightening than justified wrath? I love Monster You Create type stories.
@@Arcana_Jester,
As guid as All Hallows that Aviators released a couple years back.
I dunno, it very much feels to me like she uh... might have deserved that burning.
Like, she rejected the idea of prayer, pursued magic after being told it was evil, and as described they try to teach her the right way of living, but she "cast off her shackles" and "reject(ed) her given name", which appears to imply that even after she was initially spared in an effort to teach her right, she returned to the dark forces she was drawn to initially. Then, she manages to escape a witch burning, and flees into the woods where she makes a pact with the devil for power, and uses it to slaughter the whole town.
She was already the monster, seeking dark things and reaching for power for its own sake. She wasn't created by mistreatment, she used her "mistreatment" as justification for the horrors she sought to inflict on others in service of the dark powers she gave herself to.
@@Joural0401Christianity was spread for 2000 years through rape, slavery and genocide. The village deserved it
"Casting off the shackles to reject her given name, The one who burn the witches always ends up in the flame." "Pray your final whispers and reflect upon your guilt, The monster you created will end everything you've built." god damn these verses man, giving me the chills, it's so freaking good.
That first one sounds like it could be a quote from something like Bloodborne or Blasphemous or something honestly.
Honestly I love those lines so much, though maybe not for the reasons the majority do since I'm kinda a social outcast- partly because I'm trans and raised by not the most accepting christians ^^'
@@discordiacreates6669 as a transfem, SAME. It hits so differently and it’s so amazing.
@@iheartblock3792 Oh sick I'm not the only one who thought this! Just love those lines, and the lines "she's here to light the matches with a new enchanted form, making her own action so the victim is reborn" are just so good too
@@discordiacreates6669 I'm rewatching this for the twentieth time for entirely cis reasons /s
I adore the chorus on this song. You can really hear your singing talent on this one! (Also fishpaste's master on this is AMAZING)
The rhythm reminds me of the Nightmare Before Christmas, so it's on the level of Danny Elfman for-sure.
Trying to place the rest of it... Somewhere between Depeche Mode & Lemon Demon???
All are excellent Artists! BRAVO, AVI!

Didn't expect two new songs in the same week! Trick Me and Scarlet Vow are both amazing Halloween songs.
There are even more songs on the EP linked in the description! 😁
So, I have a DnD character I made over 3 years ago who's backstory parallel's this songs lyrics really closely, down to rejecting her given name, magic book burning, and all. She is also a sorcerer who finds strength beyond her hometown. this song speaks to me on a completely different level. hats off to you and what you do.
Sounds really cool, where's the character now?
@@iluxius8216 Learning what she can from the world outside, along with her band of misfits who met stranded on a deadly island. This is also the location she met an incredibly powerful necromancer known as Father, who granted her knowledge and power for a 'small' cost. After finding a way off the island, they're now on an official mission to contact Goliath tribes in the Northern reaches.
I've got the urge to make a character inspired by this song, so I'm excited that you have an established character like this already.
I have a similar experience with his"My Church" song, though my character is a warlock she's basically acting like a cleric and trying to convert people.
Pointed hats off, right? ;)
Something about the way Aviators says "Lock your doors" or "Scarlet vow" just makes my audhd brain so happy!!
EYY, Two Halloween songs in one year? What a treat!
Now we wait for the trick
Just you wait. There's a twist at the end...
@@UrsineBloke see yourself out
@@UrsineBloke I appreciate that
there's 7, check the bandcamp in the description
I have yet to find a more fitting description for this song than when you called it the "All Hallows girlboss version" on stream
It absolutely rocks
Y'know, I didn't see that comment, but it fits really well lol.
noooooooooo hehee
Girl Boss? Is that like a bordello's madam or a pimp's bottom bitch?
@@Mr.Ambrose_Dyer_Armitage_Esq. uh
Lol yeah I was thinking this song is basically a metaphor for feminism fighting patriarchal tradition, it just fits so well! Fun song either way, I love it
I’m equally amazed at how you come up with songs and the narratives the tell. You’re so creative!
The premiere was so fun last night! This EP is one of your best🎃
"The one who burns the witches always ends up in the flames"
and "the monster you created will end everything you've built" have got to be my favorite lines.
What makes you think your God will protect you? Your own failures brought this about, and now you'll reap what your sins have sewn.
This is already a certified Aviators classic
Omggg!!! Great as always, I never get tired of your Halloween songs!! ❤️
Halloween is just a good holiday in general and it stands out from the rest so much.
OH NO!!! The song ended! Hit the Replay button!!!
Honestly your songs are fantastic, I look forward to whatever song you make next in the future! Good luck my friend and thank you for making awesome music over the years!
CK-17,
Note) ye can set it to loop-play y'all know.y
I've had it on auto-replay since I revisited Aviators channel again, as I'm in the process of creating a remix of it for my own personal playlist for when I'm on the road.
Such a fun EP with a ton of spoopy bangers (and an amazing Gaga cover). A worthy spiritual successor to Howling at the Moon!
It’s like a mix of Summon the Choir and All Hallows, love it
THE POWER IN YOUR VOICEEEE❤️🔥
Bro I just got new earbuds and I’m hearing all sorts of stuff in here I’ve never heard before, this is so awesomeee
Vibes so good they send chills down your spine!
like seriously, especially parts like this: 1:27 - 1:43
i can't have a good spooky month without your halloween songs man!
Thank you, Aviators, for giving us another great music piece for our haloween adventures. :)
A delightful song! I thought by the name it'd be about vampires but even better, a vengeful witch is awesome! This'll be stuck in my head for a long while!
My favorite time of year, with an Aviators song on top!
Dude this song is BASED AF. Been listening to it over and over so much that Ive gotten inspired to make homebrew DnD campaign based on this songs story for private games with some friends. It would be nice to have a strong horror campaign for once. God I love October, and it's still September. Next month can't come fast enough.
ima be the one to say it the witch is a bakery
In just under 6 minutes, Aviators manages to show what most authors would take at least 80,000 words to describe.
to be fair it's not the same format, if you take the text of a music to sell it as a novel people are going to clown on you, and it's possible to write it in less words if you make it a poem so that ain't really the praise you meant it to be (I'm not saying Aviators ain't amazing for the story telling of his music tho)
@@myakuza4366 glad someone gets it. Different mediums, people.
Songs are typically supposed to be faster then novels or books lol
The one who burns the witches always ends up in the flame
The monster you created will end everything you've built
among others, these lines are just pure poetic pleasure!
>proves the village right by being a literal mass murderer using a deal with satan
The lyric “casting off the shackles to reject her given name” always makes me smile deviously
Just heard your whole EP on my way home from my job and wow is these new songs are a banger. This is one of your best works out of all EPs you released over the years.
My favorite track for this EP is definitely Eclipse.
Another brilliant Aviators song with sufficient story and emotional tones to adapt into a full movie/novel
First notes and I already love it! Halloween is seriously your season
Is it wrong this song literal is making my brain wanna make a whole character around this song
I came up with an entire book idea because of this song. So no (thanks avi).
@@thearcanehunter2736 I could probably make a whole book based on the character I thought up set in my Fantasy and Modern connected worlds tbh
not the only one
@@thearcanehunter2736 same lmao (well, this one and Trick Me)
I am now writing a marvel fanfic about a kid whose mom was a mutant that the US soldiers killed.
Your Halloween songs are always my favorite and I have no idea why, but this is everything I love about your music
This Halloween night is going to be a banger with this album.
Aviators always seems to make amazing Halloween songs. So many of the lines are amazing.
“To them, she was just another witch. They executed her without a trial. To me, she was my mom. She’s why the fires burn,”.- a line I thought up for a character I’m working for a marvel fanfiction I am working on which this song helped me think of.
Ok update: I have a name/backstory for this character.
His name is John Z King.
He is a semi-verbal autistic man in his 20s currently but in his origin story occurs when he was 6.
His mom was a mutant and the Mutant Recapturing division killed her in front of him. Because he was nonverbal he was sent to a center to basically shock ‘bad,’ behaviors out of him.
It’s here where he learned that his power is to talk with his mind using all manner of electrical or radio devices. He can even mimic all the voices he hears and thrown the voices so it misdirects enemies.
He can also, if touching a communication device of any kind, hear enemy chatter even if both radios are turned off.
On his 12th birthday, he escapes the center with Magneto’s help. Although Magneto was more of a getaway driver here as Magneto had been attacking the center anyway.
And in this universe, Magneto’s goal isn’t anti-human. It’s anti-state. He’s still incredibly violent but he frequently runs mutual aid food things for the homeless and has humans at all levels of his brotherhood.
I ended buying the album because of this song and god the whole album goes hard, This is my favorite song in it and its just so darn good
I have just recently started listening to your music, please continue to write and produce. Your work is absolutely incredible!
This song has had some of the hardest lines I’ve ever heard Unironically.
Wow, this one is a masterpiece. Beautiful!
Found your music about a year ago now and have be hooked ever since, I love the playfully dark sound of this one.
Whoop what a bop! I love it, Aviators. Can't wait for the rest of the album.
Always a delight to listen to new songs from you. Consistent quality music for me to get lost in.
This song was amazing. When I was listening to this I was picturing what this song was telling me so thank you for another master piece and keep up the amazing work. HAPPY HALLOWEEN 🎃
Perfect for my Aviators & Co. Halloween Playlist. Thank you very much for all your great songs :) Happy Halloweeeeen
Everything this human makes is perfection
Gutted that I had to miss the release party last night, but I’m loving the new tracks! Especially happy that this one got uploaded to CZcams. I absolutely love the storytelling in your lyrics. 🔥
Shoutout to Ablueskittle too! The album artwork is stunning!
Anyone can create a song, but only a few can create a good song. And fewer yet can combine a good song with compelling narrative. Kudos
Every Aviators song has such a lovely vibe
Yet. Another. Instant. Halloween. Classic. How the absolute hell do you manage this each and every year? At this point, I think I'm just an Avi simp...Anyways, it's honestly hard to pick a favorite Halloween song of yours when we get so many amazing ones so consistently. Think about the fans some, would ya? 😒😂 In all seriousness, though, thanks for making songs for as long as you have. Damn hard to believe I've been listening to you for about 9 years now. God damn. One more, and I'm at a decade of Avi! Hopefully you'll still be making music then, and for some time to come. :) As for the comment section, I hope y'all are having a wondering day, and a spooky Halloween! Now, quite like a vampire, I retreat back into the night until a new Avi video is posted. :P
Welp, I guess I've found a new song to obsess over for the next couple weeks, just in time for Halloween, too! Great work on this, guys!
This sounds great! Love your Halloween songs!
CZcams absolutely loves having me listen to your songs for some reason, to the point where I can identify them on like the first note. Having said this, I don't know how I haven't heard this one before now. Love it.
Shout out to the random person in Tower Unite who introduced me to this band, so glad I stumbled across this amazingness
This was awesome to hear at the premiere stream!! this is very spoopy for this years Halloween
Oh look, another BANGER going on my repeat list! Amazing job!!
you guys never cease to amaze, truly.
this is a gem, thank you so much avi!
I love how this song has the same flow as All Hallows.
This is *perfect,* there is nothing more that needs to be said.
Ok came back here after listening to every song in the album a couple times...
And like, Eclipse and Hell Has an Elevator are so good it's unreal. Like just, damn. Just no getting over these particular two songs. Just astounding work fr.
This is such a groovy song! Definitely my favorite song in the EP, betwixt the masterfully crafted lyrics and the bouncing instrumentals!
another incredible song, it's such a treat to have another halloween one!
Another song to bring a big ol smile to my face as i listen to it.
Your music is awesome. It always inspires me and my writing, thank you
This is why im not a asshole, because the person i was a asshole too would become somthing that will get a very painful revenge.....no thanks......im good
Aviators keep taking shots, and keep hitting
Every song slaps so hard, but this one goes way beyond
New ep!
Was waiting for this for months Avi!
As always, you deliver amazing songs.
This one sounds awesome indeed!
Awesome song Aviators
Dude it bops! Nice! Loved the organ feel and how it meshed well with the other instrumental.
You did not one, not even two, but A WHOLE HALLOWEEN EP?!
Avi you're the best!
I think this is my favorite out of all the new releases
Thanks for this.
I love your Halloween songs.
Entering a spooky path with Aviators 👀
It's spooky season!
Definitely my new favorite song from you! I love your stuff!
One of the best parts of Halloween is the music this man makes during this lovely time of year
First song of yours in a while i've truly truly loved.
Excellent piece, so fuckin synthy and powerful and vengeful.
Another banger I can listen to on repeat, as expected
Hell yeah! Halloween's gonna be great this year with music like this!
It does not make any sense that the Aviators do not have like 10x subscribers… Thank you for the beautiful and spooky Halloween songs!
Well this is a blast on the past I haven't seen any of your music in a while
I can't help but wonder if the title Scarlet Vow has anything to do with the semi-popular classic lit Scarlet Letter? Both seem to have similar features for subject, and I mean... there's also the Scarlet thing.
I dunno. I may be stretching but it's there for me.
this one is gonna be great
I started listening to you in 2020. I love your music man
damn aviators, you have been giving such great music, do your best but dont stress out
YAAASSS 🎉 Can't wait for the rest to pop up!!! 🤩❤️
"These fiends have come for vengance and will bury them instead."
Man just released a song 6 days ago and is already coming out with another, man is crankin em out, just dont burn yourself out avi. But none the less keep up the amazing work
You don't fail to amaze love all your music but my time is autumn with long dark nights and coldness this is when I come alive x
Holy fack that is awesome.
I've been following you since the brony days and you still make my fav songs out there.
I absolutely love this , you're the best avi!
Another great song! I love all of your music!
this is so catchy ive been playing this on replay really puts me in the blood born mood
"Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves" Isaiah 28:15
This passage immediately popped into my head when I listened to this song, I thought I should share it
Your Halloween songs never disappoint
good to know your still alive after the fort myers hurricane.
Yea I was worried when it first hit
Unfortunately I feel asleep midways through the premiere but I'm glad I didn't miss this masterpiece :D
very good this song, you managed to make me have a playlist with only your songs.
I love this song so much, especially the bonechilling intensity.
Amazing song, and a complete bop!
