Lyrics:
Warriors of Devastation
Music & Lyrics by Leonard Ong

Verse 1:
Men of the rising sun
Embark on to the fields
Endowed for devastation,
With a blade of the finest
For Horror on those ahead
With a soul of no fear
Death has no sense to them.
With Honor they fight

Chorus:
United as a clan, under a banner
They rise and fight
With honor on their side
They fight for their lords
Warriors of the rising sun
Warriors of the sword
Warriors of honor and
Warriors of Devastation

Verse 2:
Call them inhuman, Nor they care
To sacrifice everything for their lords
With a shield of steel, humble to protect their lord.
Honor is everything, More precious then life itself

Verse 3:
Men of the noble
Fierce with the sword
Bound to their souls
Pledge fealty to their lords,
The way of the samurai,
Is found only in death
Without reaching one's aim is the lowest of shame

Chours:
Warriors of the rising sun
Warriors of the sword
Warriors of honor and
Warriors of Devastation

Verse 4:
Taking heads of the enemy,
For rewards of land and gold
A Defeat in battle,
A dishonourable deed
they shall commit seppuku
And die of there shameful acts
and protect their pride
May they write a poem of death

Verse 2:
Call them inhuman, Nor they care
To sacrifice everything for their lords
With a shield of steel but humble to protect their lord.
Honor is everything, More precious then life itself

Chorus:
United as a clan, under a banner
They rise and fight
With honor on their side
They fight for their lords
Warriors of the rising sun
Warriors of the sword
Warriors of honor and
Warriors of Devastation

Really better quality (than the previous version). The kick drums are more audible. =)

But I still think you get to better your vocals, Leonard. Although I LOVE the instrumentals of Shangren.

Cheers...

@thanatos8618 Hey Thanatos, thanks for what you said. i really appreciate others people's opinion. this is just a demo recording and besides the music and drums, the vocals have not been re-recorded. However my vocals have since improved and will be shown in the upcoming album.

This is the song that got me into Shangren

[Mality]

New and original sound, perfect blend of tradition and brutality

[jonaimmigrant]

[SpardaHorrorFreak]

the link to purchase it doesn't work, how can i buy it? and do you do wholesales for labels? i own a french underground label

[QcYnQ]

one of the best songs i´ve ever heard

[marchingmetal94]

@GunnerRouge the great thing about this band is you could hear any one of their songs and get hooked instantly because their so awesome

[JRockGalaxy]

For a debut EP I must say you guys nailed it. Honestly I'm noticing no flaws with the vocals either, plus the instrumentals are very nice, I can't wait until your first album. For an asian folk inspired band in my books you're in league with Whispered, another one of my favourites. :D
