The King Is Dead
Ash and rock, smoke and mud
The last grain fell on bloodstained ground
The king is dead, no heir is left
Marauding hordes burnt our house and stole our brute
without sentence
Justice is what falls first in war
We cannot stay here: Flee now!
And make your way to our assembly point
Life told me a tale about a land of strength,
A king of right, a time of peace
But it all collapses in these days of war
A painful truth: Too few survived!
And winters rage will let us starve to death
The anger grows; who's the guilty one?
Once again it's the bravest man who suffers greatest loss
Justice left this dying land
We cannot stay here: Flee now!
The best defense is still a flight to the front
Life told me a tale about a land of strength,
A king of right, a time of peace,
But it all collapses in these days of war
(May the day come, when in the councils of kings and sovereigns
eventual wisdom defeats their greed and cupidity
And may the day come, when the swordsmen conquer their fear
and let a spark of charity for the weak ones fill their hearts)
But we can't wait
Our need's too great
Taken by the courage
Born form our despair
We will now face
Our task
Life told me a tale about a land of strength,
A king of right, a time of peace,
But it all collapses in these days of war – of war!

Time Will Tell
Will I settle down one day?
Break the sword, forget my kind
Build a house deep in the woods
far away from here
Smoke a pipe and sing
A song for the lost
Tellin' my story every man who is passing by
No one knows the spell to foresee
The path for me that lies ahead
Ahead in the dark
Make up your mind and you'll find the truth:
We're all rusty rooks and we live for this moment
Tell me why we should suffer despair?
The time given to us wasn't made to cry to the moon
to cry to the moon
Will I march with you to war?
And blow the horn till my last breath
Stand my ground, raise my flag,
Kill in the name of kings
One day I'll be too old
Can't hold the shield up high
An arrow in my chest will be the last thing that I'll see
No one knows the spell to foresee
The path for me that lies ahead
in the dark
Make up your mind and you'll find the truth:
We're all rusty rooks and we live for this moment
Tell me why we should suffer despair?
The time given to us wasn't made to cry to the moon
to cry to the moon
Time will tell
Cry no more, find your way
Time will tell

Call For Revenge
What sort of a tale
forfeits its heroes and conceals the ending?
What kind of a man
loses heart and betrays his equals?
I'm not of that kind
I bring you hope and put trust in our task
My deeds will be famed
With every step I'll go down in history
We've passed so many crossroads
A thousand times we could have turned around
But faith's been strong in those days
and will be even stronger nowadays
There'll be no dawn for those
who stay loyal to the throne and the king of disgrace
It's the end of our need, it's the birth of new hope
a torch in the dark to guide this land out of misery
Now answer my call
for our revenge and the fall of the crown
So lest we forget:
Due to our heart's blood we'll enter new tales
We've fended many fate-strokes
A thousand times we've regained our strength
But leave those days behind now
and focus on our tasks nowadays
There'll be no dawn for those
who stay loyal to the throne and the king of disgrace
It's the end of our need, it's the birth of new hope
a torch in the dark to guide this land out of misery
Misery
I've made a promise to each and to everyone:
United we stand and united we'll fall!
And now is the time to keep it
and you shall all stand by my side
to fulfil my word
We've passed so many crossroads
A thousand times we could have turned around
But faith's been strong in those days
and will be even stronger
There'll be no dawn for those
who stay loyal to the throne and the king of disgrace
It's the end of our need, it's the birth of new hope
a torch in the dark to guide this land out of misery
Misery

An absolutely amazing Epic fantasy Power metal band. It reflects the warrior spirit very well. I'm looking forward to their third album.

When you are looking for first class female fronted or gothic metal somewhere between Nightwish and Evanescence you should not miss "Spellbound". ELVELLON's symphonic style is maybe not original but the songs are atmospheric, catchy and finished with just the right portion of pathos. A lot of gothic metal bands try to create emotional impact but only few are so talented to create such a dreamlike and inspiring atmosphere. From zero to the olymp of gothic metal, no weak track here!
