Die griechischen Melodic Death Metaller offenbaren den zweiten Track `A Throne Of Melanch0ly´ aus ihrem kommenden Album „Remains Of A Dead World“ nach `Euphoria Within Chaos´. Der zehnte Longplayer des Fünfers erscheint dann am 31. Mai.
Marios Iliopoulos:
„We love great hooks and melodies, and I feel that this song has these 2 elements that we are always trying to portray on our songs, trying to find the perfect balance between ethereal melodies and big metal riffing. The song structure is pretty simple and almost coming to the heavy metal territory, love Konstantinos vocals are very melodic and aggressive with nice overtones, and the chorus hits hard with mine and Fotis Benardo clean vocals, something that I’m trying for the first time on a Nightrage album. The song talks about the fact that even if we are on our worst possible state in our life’s journey, there is a lot of hardships that we have to face every day in our lives, but we need to remember that there’s a light always shining for us at the end of the tunnel, and no matter what how many times we are down, we need always to find the inner power to stand up and face our fears and live our life for what it is, with courage and patience, with no darker corners and no agendas.“
Konstantinos Togas:
„The song „A throne of Melancholy“ is one of the most melodic songs of our album. When I first listened to the melodies and heavy riffs that Marios came up in the guitar I instantly realized that this is a song that requires more colorful brutal vocals. Also, the clean vocals that Fotis Benardo and Marios did, enhance this melodic feeling even more without changing the origins of the song. The lyrics of the song, are dark and gloomy as always, are about seeking hope in a dark state of self and overcoming sorrow. The balanced combination of the above elements (melodic heavy riffs, colorful vocals and dark lyrics) is what fascinates me the most and proves to be the perfect recipe of a great melodic death metal song!“

Lyrics:
Farrago
the utter end
my loneliness
casts my own defeat
Among them
they knew the truth
but they turn their backs away
silence my idea
letting life obscure
Into my own grief
just another cloud
hear what night has to say, you can face tomorrow
in your eyes
escape the shadows hunting you
I can see the venom through the face of pain
Wounds of self-deception
Waiting for the final sign
A Throne of melancholy
I can see the venom through the face of pain
Is my only guide
Waiting for the final sign
Being none
my innocence
is taking over
i’m becoming something new
in power now
i rest myself
and cast aside
All the things I used to be
All the things I used to see
Intricate waves of sadness
I can see the venom through the face of pain
Wounds of self-deception
Waiting for the final sign
This quiet night, you can face tomorrow
in your eyes
escape the shadows hunting you
I can see the venom through the face of pain
Wounds of self-deception,
Waiting for the final sign
A Throne of melancholy
I can see the venom through the face of pain
Is my only guide
Waiting for the final sign
A Throne of melancholy x2
