all i can think about when i listen to this song is single handedly fighting an endless force of nazi zombies with a giant minoan axe on a bridge over fire
@darkwolf228 i think that was the best way i've ever heard someone describe not just The Sword, but any band in general. What u said should be a quote on the bands website, foreal
i love these guys and all there songs about Wicca, but technically the goddess and horned god are separate, but the riffs in this song more than make up for it
@666alikat Whatever !!...This is definitly a pagan music. Listen to their song "Freya". Well, Freya is a Goddess. Sword is not only a falic symbol. It is also the Air symbol, courage, knowledge, comunication (in Tarot Cards). So... Male or Female aspect. We all have both ! Kisses. Rose Witch
@Hirasike Whatever one one ... This is definitely a stoner music. The sword not only plays on ORANGE amps, which are a symbol for stoner music, but their logo is also in the style of stoner rock. horned goddess is a slang name for a type of drug.
@666alikat Who fucking cares?! And the moon is made of cheese; Hitler was Mexican; JFK shot himself from the repository.. Fuck man, Just dig it or don't...
@Hirasike I hope you are right, because I am a pagan. So, if these guys were pagan or even just were educated on paganism and happened to write songs about it I would be an even bigger fan of theirs than I already am. The only reason I am skeptical is that people used to say that Black Sabbath were satanist (not saying that paganism and satanism are in any way similiar) when they aren't and never have been.
Its like if Metallica and Black Sabbath Had a Son, and that son had sex with the Daughter of the Beatles and Led Zeppelin and the child produced was the Sword!
I think its just about what you like, I mean i could swear Doomyness is something great, but there are also many bands with 0.00% doom... and they stil rock^^
You cannot hate these guys and have good taste. If you have good taste then you would respect this band for being a band keeping retro-metal alive but with a sharper edge.
I just heard them for the first time today and have listened to at least 10 songs and all have kicked ass.
I have no idea. I think people think they're hipsters being "ironic." I disagree. You can make metal this good w/o being utterly reverent of what has gone before.
People dislike their repetitiveness and the singer's voice. But there is no problem with that cause their music is awesome and is so great to listen to!
I saw them live once before and now im going to see them again in a bigger stage with metallica. If any of you are true metal heads you should definately go out and buy their albums. The first album is a true classic.
EVER? led zeppelin, tool, the mars volta, pink floyd? i love the sword; have their albums. but...."ever"? expand your knowledge of music.
now, i am not here to call you a douchebag idiot kid who only knows what others tell him...making him a sheep that would eat dung if it was labled as "the next big thing". that's NOT what i'm saying about you to everyone who reads this.
p.s.-when i say "knowledge", i don't mean simply knowing the mainstream songs by these artists.
seriously though, i'm not trying to tell people what to like, i just wish people would put things (music, film, politics) into context and stop jumping the gun the very minute the media tells them to jump.
