Witchfinder General...Quietus Reprise

This is one of my favorite slabs of doom metal. This is Witchfinder General's Quietus Reprise. If you have any NWOBHM request I could probably get it for you, just ask.

lyrics:
You're going nowhere
What you gonna do on the run?
I'd hate to be in your shoes now, you've got to run
He's gonna find you, he's gonna get you on the run
He's right behind you
Don't look round, he's got a gun

Servitude you escaped from
Now you've got to hide
His servitors are coming in from the other side
A quick disguise, you get away, just one more time
He'll keep on coming, Oh you know he won't resign

You lie awake at night hard a-thinkin'
You must not sleep just keep your eyes a-blinkin'
Frightened he might come Oh when you're sleepin'
Listen in the bushes, Is that him creepin'?

Irrationally you walk the streets at night
Your mind is irrevokable by daylight
He has a plan to get you it's a treat
He's got you where he wants
You bit the bait

You lie awake at night hard a-thinkin'
You must not sleep just keep your eyes a-blinkin'
Frightened he might come Oh when you're sleepin'
Listen in the bushes Is that him creepin'?

A sudden move the bullet yes it hits you hard
He's impeccable you know he caught you off your guard
A sudden move, another shot Yeah you provoke
It seems to me
It was the death finishing stroke

The last two minutes of Quietus absolutely rules. Metal never sounded so cool, and groovey.

[TemplarsVision]

I definitely agree.

[idolguns]

METAL!!!

Thnx a bunch for uploading this classic!

[TemplarsVision]

Yea man if you want me to upload any more Witchfinder General stuff just let me know. I also have a live version of this song which is so much heavier than this version.

[idolguns]

YEAH! upload it, dude. I fucking love this band! I'm awaiting their new album.

[TemplarsVision]

Alright man I posted the live version, just click on my TemplarsVison link on the top right and it should be one of the first videos.

[Treklon]

This Riffs from that Song are Heavy as Hell!The Voice From Zepp Amazing!Fuck all the Nu Metal Bands!This is real heavy Metal!!!!!!!!!

[Tessmage]

Regarding the debate about Wg sounding like vintage Sabbath...

Yes. We already knew that WG sounded like Master Of Reality (on steroids).

You need to remember that back in 1980 or so, when WG first made the scene, the old Black Sabbath had disbanded and was no more. I think WG probably decided to pick up the torch that Sabbath had abandoned and run with it. Somebody had to... and these guys pulled it off beautifully.

SennMac... please try to keep those issues in mind.

[dabudz420]

[ripsawedcunt]

everytime i hear this, reminds me of into the void

[dannyhood66]

Fuck these guy's were addicted to sabbath toni iommi shit so bad its unreal! !aH But that makes them even more real i think especially coming from late 70s early eighties?

[blacksabbath848]

I LOOOOVE THIS SONG SO HEAVY!! REAL DOOM!

[evilresidence4]

1:00 whats the deal they ran outta riffs or what thats totally ripped off from last chance lol

[AdamHallJR]

@LZOFI Sabbath neva split for 20 years and Ozzy was not a writter- - you shud think before you spout.

[DoomMetalSludge]

Different situation with the sab's - Keep in mind Ozzy already had 8 albums under his belt and later went on to have a highly lucrative solo career. I actually enjoy all eras of Black Sabbath, baring with the fact that Iommi happens to be my favorite guitarist and every era has something nice to offer.
