PRIMORDIAL [To The Nameless Dead](2007)

TRAITORS GATE

Borders swell like the oceans
Nations swept away
In the steel rain
Wounds carved in the earth
The silent hands of genocide
Map the years
Forgotten legacies of dust
People remembered in nothing
But fragments of language
Verses of song
And shards of military rust

The gallows cold hands
Tighten old rope
Young men hang in the fetid breeze
Like rotten fruit
Too ripe for harvest
They have marched us
Through the streets
Heralded our death
Proclaimed our end
And brought us to our knees

A host of the willing few
Is gathered at the Traitors Gates
Demanding their pound of flesh
And their weight in gold

The tyrant
Resurrected as King
Who's Midas touch an Iron Fist
All the world proclaiming
Yesterday's man as Traitor
Yet welcome with open arms
His brother as tomorrows Dictator

  • @Mega370HSSV I take it you've never listened to black metal before?

  • The tyrant

    Resurrected as King

    Who's Midas touch an Iron Fist

    All the world proclaiming

    Yesterday's man as Traitor

    Yet welcome with open arms

    His brother as tomorrows Dictator

    -That is the most powerfull set of lyrics. Very relevent

  • I love how his voice gets even more intense for the second half of the verses.

  • "Young men hang in the fetid breeze

    Like rotten fruit

    Too ripe for harvest"

    There is so much power and meaning in those 3 lines of lyrics. I get chills every time I hear them.

  • I forgot about this song after a stroke. Traitors Gate or The Sons of the Moriggon are the best Primordial !

  • Wow epic

  • Really cool band great vocals for a black metal there own style

  • My favorite track in this album. Amazing.
