pinkytheent Red hot, baby!! Blazon Rite unsheathe another gleaming blade of trve flame-bearing heavy freaking metal. Their melodies and movements feel somewhat different than many carrying the trad banner; like if Van Halen were really into DnD. Love their home-crafted melodic sound carrying you forward into vales of wintry adventure, shield slung over shoulder. A truly excellent follow-up to their previous record. Every song is a banger. Excellent work, Blazon Rite! Hope to see you soon! Favorite track: Troubadours Of The Final Quarrel.

I flip the copper piece right in the barmaids hand I slam my silver tankard down and wait for god's big plan The lute man’s tale is getting old, I’ve heard it all before I’m gonna end my night far from this tavern floor Can you blame me? For wanting a bit more out of life? Salvage, what you can of the night. Damage, at the point of a knife Savage, moonlight guides my way I must run forever free, a new quest everyday I walk through the rabble, head past the blacksmiths forge Winding muddy streets I’ve seen a thousand times before I’m looking for anything that I haven’t seen Mystery, a call to arms, a sorceress with eyes of green The alley quakes, the walls they crack My mace it glows as my eyes go black Salvage, what you can of the night. Damage, at the point of a knife Savage, moonlight guides my way I must run forever free, a new quest everyday They pull the blind fold away I was drugged and beaten in a rage And as I my eyes began to clear it’s the shark and I’ve owed money too for years Can’t hold me down! Can’t hold me back! Slip through your ropes! Counter Attack! Savage, moonlight guides my way I must run forever free, a new quest every day
