about

"The music unleashed by this band is aimed squarely at making the listener either submit or be trampled underfoot by the onrushing horde.”
- Penfold, The Ripple Effect (Nov 17, 2011)

lyrics

Children pick up your swords and fight
Be not afraid
A deadly calm precedes the storm
Tear yourself from your mothers’ womb
Innocent no more

Into the lair of the wolves
Where legends are carved in blood
Into the maelstrom where killers are born
Raised on the blood of their own

By strength of the arms and dint of steel
And warriors’ hearts
We’ll feast on the blood of our foes
And watch them burn

Chanting, Singing, Praising fallen heroes
Shining, gleaming, keen-edged weapons chosen
Killing, Feasting human sacrifices
Onward, forward, come now off to war

Eminent the gathering hordes, our numbers swell
How many of them can we kill before darkness falls
Black-feathered circling carrion crows
Bellow the challenge; beating the drums of war

Into the lair of the wolves
Where legends are carved in blood
Into the maelstrom where killers are born
Raised on the blood of their own

"The foemen’s army draws near;
Lash yourselves to your swords.
The only thing to fear is fear”

Chanting, Singing, Praising fallen heroes
Shining, gleaming, keen-edged weapons chosen
Killing, Giving human sacrifices
Onward, forward, come now off to war

A rushing wave of flesh and steel; will and might
Crashes against the shield wall below
Riding frenzied convulsions of rage.
Stepping in killing
Mangling flesh and breaking bones.

Into the lair of the wolves
Where legends are carved in blood
Into the maelstrom where killers are born
Raised on the blood of their own

By strength of the arms and dint of steel
And warriors’ hearts
We’ll feast on the blood of our foes
And watch them burn
Burn
Watch them burn

Eminent to the gathering horde
Now follow me to hell
Eminent to the gathering horde
I summon thee to die
Eminent to the gathering horde
To carry out my vision
Eminent to the gathering horde
Until Domination
Eminent to the gathering horde

about

A Band of Orcs Capitola, California

A Band of Orcs hail from Hirntodia. They came to Earth realm via a popular role-playing game played by a group of human children, who are now dead. The Game Master's older brother, Jed, saved his own life by offering to teach the Orcs to play guitar. SLAYER's "Reign in Blood" play in the background of Jed's room and eased the rage of the beasts. They use this magic called metal for Domination. ... more
