Nach einer kleinen Ruhepause, die orchestrale EP „Symphonia Deorum“ liegt zwei Jahre zurück, kehren die bayrischen Epic Melodic Death Metaller NOTHGARD mit ihrer brandneuen Single `Opium Dreams´ zurück. Wie immer kombiniert Mastermind Dom Crey Trademarks wie Technik, Härte, Präzision, Atmosphäre, Storytelling, Melodik, Cinematik und Epik in seinem einzigartigen Sound und darf im Video zudem seinen durchtrainierten Oberkörper präsentieren.

Lyrics:
In a crumbling town by the river’s flow,
Where the shadows dance in the twilight glow,
I found her gaze, yeah a haunting sight,
The dark queen of the night.
Rising from the depths of despair,
Will and passion, entwined in the air.
Through the shadows, her spirit does roam,
In death’s cold grip she refused to be home.
As I watched her soul, torn from decay
The void took her, my heart withered away
Yet fate turned cruel, I fled from my grief,
To an ancient place, seeking belief.
Rising from the depths of despair,
Will and passion, entwined in the air.
Through the shadows, her spirit does roam,
In death’s cold grip she refused to be home.
A vision of beauty so bright,
her essence lost in the night.
With opium dreams, I buried my pain,
But the specter of her would not be contained.
Draped in the silence, she lay cold and pale,
Yet a flicker of life broke the deathly veil.
Rising from the depths of despair,
Will and passion, entwined in the air.
Through the shadows, her spirit does roam,
In death’s cold grip she refused to be home.
Through cycles of death, our spirits survive.
She is forever, in darkness we thrive,
We‘re tied together like never before
In the abyss I’ll love you once more.
