“Sunraven” das zehnte Album der Stockholmer Doom und Heavy Truppe GRAND MAGUS ist auf den 18. Oktober terminiert. Inhaltlich soll sich die Scheibe um die Beowulf-Sage drehen.  Nach der gestrigen Bekanntgabe, folgt dann auch das Video zum ersten neuen Song `Skybound` auf dem Fuße.

JB kommentiert den Song:

„“Skybound‘ is obviously a song about death and going to Valhalla. That’s where Beowulf ended up in the end, because after he defeated Grendel and Grendel’s mother, he was king for 50 years! Then his lands were plagued by a dragon, and by this time Beowulf is fucking ancient, but he’s still mean as a snake. He goes against the dragon and he manages to kill the dragon, but he’s mortally wounded in the process. He’s sky-bound, you know? These are all my own ideas about this. I used the myth as starting point for my own ideas and imagination.“

Lyrics:

When you see me

I’ll be skybound

Touching glory on my way

Feeling so strong

I can’t go wrong

Surging power in my veins

 

‚Cause the last time that you’ll feel me is at dawn

It’s the last time that you’ll see me then I’m gone

 

You know I’m skybound

I’ll never falter

Oh yeah, I’m skybound

To the hereafter

 

Savage yearning

Blood and fire

No restraint as fury grows

Filled with hunger for a new world

Watch me soar to evermore

 

It’s the last time that you’ll see me still in chains

I am leaving but I’ll greet you once again

 

You know I’m skybound

I’ll never falter

Oh yeah, I’m skybound

To thе hereafter
