The Sword - Sea of Spears

[buddhastalin]

seen them live twice, the sword don't fuck around! A+

[MikeMcMikerson]

This sounds like a big Game of Thrones reference to the war between the Lannisters, Starks, and Boratheons.

[TheHighwayRider]

Damn, this makes me wanna go pillaging!

[smirch]

They opened for Metallica on their last tour...I wanted Metallica to go backstage and bring The Sword back out....fucking epic.

Each and every one of their songs should be listened to while swinging a broadsword.

[LankanLatino]

these guys opened for kyuss last night in toronto..thanks to that, i'm here..they did an awesome show

[GrandRiffAuto73]

It's like...they took Sabbath...and made it thrashy and heavier....I fucking love The Sword. Hopefully I get to see them with Kyuss Lives in Nov.

[MrMetalbeast123]

I guess I should know this cuz I'm 15, but who's Bring me the Horizon? Is it another faggy screamo band?

[DemcieH]

speaking on behalf of my fellow 15 year olds i apologize for emos, crabcore, and hipsters.

[h00dak]

have they ever performed this live?

[SkeeZo13]

that small riff starting at 0:50 is fucking EPIC!!!!

[WHISKEYMAN603]

got turned on to this band from an old highschool buddy. the sword where have u

been all my life

[freelancefiend66]

So fucking epic!

[SOCsaint07]

whats with all the 14 year old kids wanting everyone to know how sweet they are...oh and just so we are clear there was a time when metallica was cool but now they are a bunch of washed up copyright whining assholes...they are to metal what a .22 is to guns...starter metal

[ShoveDaddy]

@SOCsaint07 THANK YOU

[ElNick09]

These guys are amazing, I know Warp Riders is still glowing red hot its so new, but I still can't wait for their next album!

[00Mayes]

@ElNick09 Lol, is that a blacksmith reference?

[Garamondable]

I'm 14 years old and I listen to this and more underrated bands. People are like 'I like metal because I listen to Bring Me The Horizon!' teenage scum these days. I'll just stick to creepin around like a goon listening to good music.

[adamw3893]

This is the best Sword song IMO...by far...

[SeaHorseGypsy]

new drummer blows

[invictusonline]

@SeaHorseGypsy he's good dude.  have you seen hime live?

[jfoley715]

FUCK YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nyrigliph1c5]

Seriously!! Where can you find a mp3 of this song!!??

[thewoolycontacts]

@nyrigliph1c5 just convert the video on google. Thats what I do. I dont feel guilty because I have already bought all of the albums on cds

[pattonPwr]

@ZXC77777 no

[Timcollis78]

Really Good stuff

[vendetacos]

Beatiful.

[SirBrittanicvs]

This music stomps through assholes and headbutts toddlers into other dimensions.

[rdavi021]

@SirBrittanicvs - This is the single greatest quote I have ever read.

[bonofasitch72]

@SirBrittanicvs That is the most profound thing I have heard in a long, long time.

[Nygmjd]

where can you get this? ive looked on I-Tunes, and the Sword website, and couldnt find it

[TheCRRiddle]

@Nygmjd I could give you a link to a torrent if you download torrents.

[EyeOnTheTV]

@TheCRRiddle I'ld like that link....

[dflip87]

ALL HAIL THE SWORD (and then tell me where i can download the stuff from this album with witchcraft [who also rule])

[vonheller]

The Sword Fucking Rules..period...

[6Goat6Skrote6]

this is a good witchfinder general cover band.

[ospididious]

Sounds a lot like COC. I dig it.

[TheCRRiddle]

@ospididious Are you high?

[ospididious]

@TheCRRiddle

Yes... quite so... probably drunk too. What's your bag?

[ospididious]

@TheCRRiddle

And after listening to the first thirty seconds, yes, it totally sounds not only like Corrosion of Conformity, but also elements of Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Sound Garden, and if you can't recognize or appreciate the predecessors of your current rock stars then you need to do some homework kid.

[Eltieth]

@ospididious Hahaha, I love that comment and I agree completely

[ThrashRoC]

yeah , they`re great , i saw them supporting metallica , 2 years ago , but now i realize how great they are , i actually bought the new album , fucking brilliant !!

[lulutalkingdolphin]

The Sword should be mandatory listening for anyone that calls themselves a "metalhead". Kids these days don't know what real metal is.

[thegranitebison]

@lulutalkingdolphin the sword should be mandatory for every human being

[AcidDvl]

@lulutalkingdolphin look, i am 17 years, I love trash metal, and start today listening to The Sword, OMG its amazing, good music can still be made!! I am one of the few teenagers that listen to metal!!! I'm proud to be one of the 8% of teens that know what real music is...

[zakattack700]

@AcidDvl alot of teens listen to metal

[METALHEAD54100]

@lulutalkingdolphin im 14 and i love these guys and this along with classic metal like black sabbath, judas priest, iron maiden, metallica are real metal is.

[EMERALDanimations]

@lulutalkingdolphin Excuse me,not all kids dude i love The Sword and I've quite a few of their songs on guitar,and I'm 13 and about me and one other person in my high school know this band and can't get enough of it ! :)

[Stratplayer05]

@lulutalkingdolphin You could change the term "metalhead" just "people."

[apatheticbrutality]

@lulutalkingdolphin im 16 and i fucking do, though i do listen to newer metal as well... though these guys are new too.... oh well i dont want my brain overheating



[demonholocaust101]

@apatheticbrutality these guys are NOT new by any means. they released their first demo in 2003, their first full album in 2006, but had been in the underground for YEARS before hand

[punkrockastyle]

@demonholocaust101 go cry with your hipster friends assface

[AcidDvl]

@lulutalkingdolphin I'am 18 hears old, and I started to hear The Sword one year ago. I always liked good music. And I know that my generation don't listen to good music anymore. That's just fucking unacceptable! Metal till dead \m/

[skydolla]

@skydolla also i've seen slayer, megadeath and the ramones

[RACCOONraul]

where the hell do i get that sweet artwork

[dreddbolt]

@RACCOONraul I also want to know where BloodAndThunder00 got that awesome artwork!!

[RACCOONraul]

@dreddbolt look up the witchcraft/ sword split. thats how i found it

[highoctanestoner]

Ok guys, classic metal is the best. I hope nobody here likes grindcore and shit like that because that sucks. Hey, if you want to here something i think is pretty good. Type in "High on Fire-Snakes For The Divine" it is a 8:30 song but its good.

[vietcongtrooper101]

This is what I call music quality pure excellence

[CasketSealer]

Warp Riders August 24th, 2010!!!!!

[ransflegda666]

August 24th fuckin warp riders

[Mustachhe]

NEW THE SWORD ALBUM coming in August 10th fuck yes!!!!!

[ironbehemoth1993]

@Mustachhe incorrect. Iron Maiden album August 10th, Sword August 24. God, its going to be a good month.

[Mustachhe]

@ironbehemoth1993 kewl beans thx man. But more fucking time to wait greeeeeeeeaaaaaaaatttttt.

[kingofquartz]

Where can I find this song??

[EyeOnTheTV]

WARP RIDERS AUG24!~!!!!!!!

[freshmakerrrr]

@EyeOnTheTV I'm fuckin pumped for warp riders i cant wait

[Thehamez]

Holy shit the sword is the BEST

[freshmakerrrr]

good song

[EyeOnTheTV]

This track fuggin rocks!! I believe they confirmed that it will be on their next album. Hopefully it will be out before July.

[wedidntseeanyting]

anyone know the lyrics? ive searched everywhere on the web so dont say google it cuz ive tried a million times!

[whobucky]

Here's what my ears hear (question marks if I'm not sure) we have sent riders ahead to warn of our coming and those who have not yet bled will join us or die we will have our revenge for the wounds we have suffered and when the battle begins you must look in our eyes untie the prisoners have someone dress the wounds then take them to my chambers

[whobucky]

(the rest): ?all traces of your house? will be destroyed you'll answer to the names ?its stricken from its throne? to prove this two methods will be employed none will survive no mercy will be shown there are seers in the cities to the south they have foreseen their own doom which we seek to bring about hordes of men gather unto me ?sail the sea of spears or the waves of enemies?

[Dragonaut111]

"sail the sea of spears over* waves of enemies". Other than that dude nice deciphering.

[MiltonMiggs]

@whobucky "All traces of your house will be destroyed. Your ancestors names will be stricken from the *scroll*." Scroll is the only part I'm not sure about, but Dude you ROCK!! I couldn't find anything with lyrics.

[thedon420333]

just cus it's on a split doesn't mean it has to be on their next album... it could or it couldn't be

[ligerman30]

hope i can get the next album by christmas!!!

[SkeeZo13]

LOL The Sword's 3rd album won't be out untill early 2010.

[mikebeefroy13]

GREAT MUSIC GUY'S. Stoner rock fucking rules. I have never heard any other band of this genre, or even of this sickness, other than KYUSS. Straight the fuck up! I ENJOY, your music. Keep up the great work. And get your fucking asses to SAN DIEGO California! BRICK BY BRICK will definitely book you a show! Awesome band!!!!!!

[Zentraleinheite]

Anyone have the lyrics to this?

[SkeeZo13]

LOL i don't get why you idiots thumbs downed my comment, cuz The Sword ARE making a 3rd album, it should be out sometime in early 2010 and yes this song is one of the tracks on there new album.

[StockdaleMB]

I am pretty sure this is off a split with Witchcraft. I don't know why they would put it on their new album.

[StockdaleMB]

It was already released on a split you dumbass, now stfu and learn to read.

[aaaaaagghhhh]

@SkeeZo13

you sir are so wrong its actually annoying. Just cause a band records a song thats not on any of their albums doesn't mean it will be on their next. Every day bands record stuff that never make it to albums. Also, this song was released, on a 12" split with Witchcraft. Theres alot of recorded music out there on EP's and compilations that isn't on full albums

[jeepstir69]

@SkeeZo13

The Sword would cut your face off for being a douche bag "know it all" ...

And I would laugh because you deserve it

[SkeeZo13]

@jeepstir69 HAHAHA i think you need to read a little more bio on this band before you say shit you fucking faggot.

[kragoraaahh]

aaaaaagghhhh, kragoraaahh!

[invictusonline]

it's supposed to be coming out in spring time 2010. i got to talk to them about it and they said this song was most likely going to be on their

[jeepstir69]

@SkeeZo13

People are giving you a thumbs down because you are ignorant and think you know everything..Obviously a few others agree that your an idiot and need to quit talking trash to everyone. Oh yeah...I almost forgot, GO FUCK YOURSELF!!!

[SkeeZo13]

@jeepstir69

laugh out fucking loud is all i have to say to you HAHAHAHA

[EyeOnTheTV]

loving this track. very heavy. very awesome.

[yutzwagon2]

*facepalm*

This song is from an LP with Witchcraft and The Sword. Read the fucking descriptions for once...

[SkeeZo13]

maybe this song is gonna be on The Sword's 3rd album if they are making one?

[MeTaLhEaD945]

it was on the japanese release of Gods of the Earth

[MrWalkinDude]

they are making one. the band has stated that recording will begin in late 2009 and that the album will be a concept album based on an original science fiction narrative. I personally kind of prefer the fantasy lyrics to scifi stuff, but I'm sure it will be good because it is the music that counts and these guys are great players

[SkeeZo13]

hey thanks for the information dude i appreciate that. i'm looking forward to a 3rd album by The Sword cuz there first 2 have been really awesome i bought both of them in a box set, now i cant wait for there 3rd album =D

[EyeOnTheTV]

I have full confidence in The Sword to produce a quality album. I believe they can blur the lines between traditional sci-fi and fantasy genres very well. Take the lyrics and music video for Fire Lances as an example.

[tiberiplaysguitar]

wow really? and yes they are

[Doomofdoom146]

I have this hoodie

[EvilCain138]

Wow, I just now heard this song. It's amazing.

[EyeOnTheTV]

This track is amazing. I can't imagine it being on either AoW or GotE. The spears are marching by in my head....

[superjoint89]

Their sound reminds me of Down.. they sound a lot alike huh?! :D

[EvilCain138]

Lol, hope you're not serious.

[SkeeZo13]

this is a good song but why isnt it on gods of the earth? =(

[xXsandmanXx7]

i think it is on gods of the earth but only on the australian or japanese version

[SkeeZo13]

oh really?

shit man that sucks ass.

[3BullsAndOneCandy]

this is one of the best songs I have ever heard. No matter what I'm listening to in the day I always wind up listening to this song at least twice in the day. I'm definitely going to have to see them live because this is one of the best bands I've heard in a long time. They truly rock like no other.

[EvilCain138]

They're fucking great live.

[jacob8933471]

where did u get that picture?

[dravin5]

this is there first album

[DrumminGod666]

whats wrong with the drummer??

sounds fine to me... fits perfectly!!!

[mynameisgodihateyou]

@DrumminGod666 he quit

[biebes7]

Fucking hell, these guys could be big one day. I saw them open for Metallica and was impressed. All they need is a decent drummer.

[Fozes]

What the hell is wrong with Trivett? :(

[Naterel]

The Sword is a faster Sleep

[cyborgtroy]

Now I have to get another album.

Stop being awesome.

[Zeldafoo9]

I want them to release a new album asap! but I'm thinking we got another year or more.

[nazgulpenguin]

While we are naming bands let me submit High on Fire, Witch, Saviours, Earthless, Kyuss, Sleep, and Om.

Great song btw, cant wait to pick up that album!

[Sadi357]

Electric Wizard, Orange goblin other 2 ass kicking stoner bands, when i was in high school u used to smoke like 3 joints while listening to those bands, it kicks ass!!

[jonnyrocketballs69]

interesting. BloodAndThunder00 i thank you.

[qwerter92]

Stoner metal? i like the sound of that haha

[RufusRamen]

Doom Metal, great!

For doom metal I recommend:

Candlemass, Witchcrat, Pagan Altar and General Witchfinder.

[ianman007]

Candlemass, Witchcraft, and General Witchfinder kick so much ass. But., I have to say that The Sword are the new kings of doom/stoner metal

[almightyjoey]

thanks so much for uploading this. I can't find the 7" where I live, so this is the first time I've heard this song. Pretty damn impressed, so far.

[BloodAndThunder00]

Hey no problem dude. Glad you enjoy it as much as I do.

[coathangermidwife]

saw them support clutch in london, amazing!!! they did look like a bunch of bored teenagers tho :) i forgive them !

[diogosaraiva]

Cool, never got to hear this album and I really like these two bands (especially witchcraft)

[alcajosh]

saw them in saskatoon fucking awesome

[SamuelLJacksonsFish]

god, this is so heavy with out getting into annoying screamo. it's awesome.

[dan24591]

if you want heavy without going into gay screamo, check out viking skull.

[EternityInValhalla]

Viking Skull are pussies now.

They're in with fucking Bam Magera and his faggot crew.

Chapter One was a good album. But now they suck

[xBx1221x]

you are a fuckin faggot

[EternityInValhalla]

I must congratulate you on you extensive use of cuss words, kid.

And it'd make me happy if you could explain to me how you managed to work out that I am a "faggot" from saying that Viking Skull suck.

I await your no-brainer comeback. "cuz u suk dikz lol".

[xBx1221x]

dont get on here just to whine and bitch like a "faggot". if you dont like viking skull then leave the basement and go cry to your fuckin momabout it lol bitch tits

[EternityInValhalla]

Viking USED to be good.

Now they suck.

I can "whine and bitch" as much as I want too, kid. I don't see you being able to stop me from sharing my opinions.

So now run along. ;)

[xBx1221x]

lol dude you totally fit the bill for a dungeons and dragons faggot

[EternityInValhalla]

What's your point?

None.

End of.

I won't be replying to your pointless invalid comments. But feel free to pointless spam. :)

[monkeyboy375]

yeah dawg you are a dungeons and dragons fagmo

[EternityInValhalla]

And that's a bad thing.. because?

Do enlighten me oh cool one who doesn't play D&D.

[roguenoobkiller]

dont diss on dnd personally i dont play it but if other people want to dont judge them for it

[xBx1221x]

ill judge whoever the fuck i want bitch tits lolz

[roguenoobkiller]

ill judge you then, and you are now a simple minded cock cucking little bitch

[Zentraleinheite]

Thanks for this. I'm a huge Sword fan and I've never heard this one. Definitely freshened their sound for me.

[spyke45690]

THE SWORD RULES!!!!!!!

I wonder why stoner metal isn't more mainstream...

[blavaburnulots]

being mainstream isnt necessarily a good or bad thing.

[Zeldafoo9]

probably not mainstream becuase not many people are into the genre. Stoner/doom metal seems to be a pretty niche market

[joelaka3pac123]

whatever u call it its epic as hell

[Zeldafoo9]

oh I agree, the sword is one of my favorite metal bands

[shtty17]

I love this shit. people need to realize that today's mainstream shit is just...well it sux ass. This is legit music.

[roguenoobkiller]

yea this band will definitely be a driving force behind the revival of metal

[stoney42042ss]

@shtty17 wish everybody was as smart as you 17 its about time somebody finally stopped whining and started fucking playin guitar

[ALuckyDonkey]

@shtty17 exactly what i think. where the skill at?! right fucking(bold/italicized/underl­ined/size 1billion) HERE.

[PereiraAtWar]

@shtty17 just because somethin is mainstream doesnt mean its bad. i am agreeing that music now or days does...well suk but ther is some good new stuff thats popular now

[stupidvampiretwat]

@shtty17 To be fair, I'd say all is 'legit' music, but I agree, rock especially has gone down the pan over the last decade.

[darknessofkrish]

@shtty17 Though I like the mainstream stuff too but this stuff is totally awesome and it really isn't fair that I don't hear these bands except by chance :P They are real eye opener.

[TheStarlessAeon]

@shtty17 mainstream in general always sucked.

[Zeldafoo9]

this is one hell of an eardrum assault, rock on!

[mulla583]

this song is amazing. I have both the swords albums and i know this is on the japennse GOTE album, and on the split but does any one where i could get this song?

[mf0178]

i would go fucking nuts when i heard the intro, this song rules

[uberpwnage223]

im seeing them on dec 2
