Die Waagschale zwischen Härte und Meldie ausgewogen zu halten, ist nicht immer leicht. Dass es den Schweden THIS ENDING gelingt, wollen sie am am 11. Juni mit ihrem neuen Longplayer “Needles of Rust” beweisen. Jetzt stellen sie ihre Auskopplung ‘Eclipse Of The Dead‘ vor.

This Ending über den Song, der von Gast-Sänger Gord (Darkened) unterstützt wird:

“This is an old song that was first written 10 years ago by Linus N. We have tried to make it work for years and finally it has found the shape it needed. This was one of the first songs originally written after our second album Dead Harvest. We also have guest vocals on this one from Gord courtesy of Darkened. The lyrics deal partly with the issues of environmental destruction and how many ignore their part in this. It also revolves around the issue of accepting the easy answers without question, to blindly trust the so-called leaders.“

Lyrics:

In the wake of devastation
An aura of gloom comes to life

Mass demise awaits in eternal night
Reality dawns upon us
(As) we are drawn into the dark
An emotionless ice age

Pray to your maker (and) ignore the shame
(To) do as you’re told (is) the easy way
The greatest lie – lord of the flies
Your disciples – into the folly

The time has come for life in an open grave
Eclipse of the dead
The time is now follow the path
Paved in deepest red

Lifeless eyes staring into the pale gray sky
All is different, yet the same

Pray to your maker (and) ignore the shame
(To) do as you’re told (is) the easy way
They have nothing but death in common
They are nothing, if they don’t follow
