Tyr's offcial website: http://www.myspace.com/tyr1

Lyrics:

I am anger
Under pressure
Lost it cages
A prisoner
The first to escape

I am wicked
I am legion
Strength in numbers
A lie
The number is one

[Chorus:]
I - I - I
Everything that I see is for me

Yes, I am giant
I'm a monster
Breaking windows
In houses
Buildings of glass
Rebel rebel
Holy outlaw
Ride together
Don't try it
The power's in one

[Chorus:]
I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can rock you
I - I - I

On the edge of the blade
But the knife can't cut the hero down

I am virgin
I'm a whore
Giving nothing
The taker
The maker of war
I'll smash your face in
But with a smile
All together
You'll never
Be stronger than me

[Chorus:]
I - I - I
Right here on my own
But I still rock you
I - I - I
Don't follow behind
Just leave me on the outside

I - I - I
I am standing alone
But I can shock you
I - I - I
On the edge of the blade
But no one makes the hero bleed
( No, no , no )

I am hunger
Feed my head
All together
You'll never
Never make the hero bleed
( No, no, no )

Funny. The band is called Tyr. Dio made an album with Sabbath called "Tyr." And this singer sounds like Dio which makes it better. haha. ahaha. I made a funny. aha

[JorisKanters]

@SilentDestruction900 "Frontman Heri Joensen of viking metal band Týr claims to have been influenced by the album cover when designing his own band's logo."

From the wikipedia page about the Tyr album by Black Sabbath.

[kasperg91]

@SilentDestruction900

Wrong. The Singer of the Album "Tyr" was Tony Martin and on the following Album "Headless Cross" too;)

[DinosaurViking]

@SilentDestruction900 You seemed so awkward at the end of that comment. It made me laugh.

[lmegadeath047l]

fucking awesome!

@theyanluzexperience It's ok tyr the albun with tony martin and the one with dio Dehumanizer are both excelente recordings as Black Sabbath is a pioneer band... TYR this band is olso good and the cover they made is excellent... bands like TYR, D Theater, Opeth, and same few others ae making us believe not all music today is comercial or bad music... take care.. and keep on enjoying this good music (apllogize for my bad english I'm from Argentina spanish language)...

[theyanluzexperience]

@yoyotaka14 Ohhhhh! Sorry, I misread or something! I was thinking of the TYR album with Tony Martin in it. My bad! ;)

[yoyotaka14]

@theyanluzexperience this song is not from TYR (de b s albun) it is from DEHUMANIZER and of course Dio was part of B Sabbath but that time......

[theyanluzexperience]

@SilentDestruction900

Dio was not on the TYR album by Sabbath, it was Tony Martin who was with them at the time. A Sabbath hidden gem in my opinion. Cheers!

[pyramidehead666]

absolutely fucking amazing!
