Frankreichs 1979 gegründete Heavy Metal Force NIGHTMARE hat Ende 2022 mit dem Einstieg von Vokalistin Barbara Mogore eine Auffrischung erfahren, die jetzt mit der Ankündigung ihres “Encrypted“ Album konkret wird. Die neue Scheibe ist für den 07. Juni geplant. `Saviours of the Damned` , ihren ersten neuen Track zwischen OS Heavy und etwas Moderne, hat die Band, samt Video an diesem Wochenende veröffentlicht.
NIGHTMARE erklären:
“With the arrival of Barbara transcending NIGHTMARE in new dimensions, we have decided to move to new heights in terms of musical approach to make Encrypted our most ambitious album to date in terms of production, musical direction and achievement… You can find here some traditional power metal riffing in the trademark of NIGHTMARE but also extreme metal parts and some highlights even reaching melodic death metal… making Encrypted our most varied opus so far, beyond all boundaries and expectations…”

Lyrics:
Earth kept our secrets for too long
Only memories will last
History repeats on and on
The burden of the past
I have a dream to change the pathway of mankind
You are the gleam within the darkness in your mind
You are the future and the past
You are the draining hourglass
And now the end is coming fast
We’re the Saviors of the damned
Humanity is mistaken
Thinking there is no ending
Millennial wisdom will have no new beginning
I have a dream to change the pathway of mankind
You are the gleam within the darkness in your mind
You are the future and the past
You are the draining hourglass
And now the end is coming fast
We’re the Saviors of the Damned
We are here as a last reminder
Let’s begin now or drown forever
Lands are empty now
That’s the only issue somehow
Our warnings no deterrent
Death was our final exile
So far away from home
A new dawn has come
Giving the next souls freedom
To choose between the seed and the blossom
I will cry
I will fight
I will rise
I have a dream to change the pathway of mankind
You are the gleam within the darkness in your mind
You are the future and the past
You are the draining hourglass
And now the end is coming fast
…We’re the Saviors of the Damned
