Melodic Synths, Overdriven guitars, danceable beats and melodic catchy male vocals gives this song a real Retro 80s Synthpop Rock feeling. It tells a story where a girl gets killed by her friend and now her ghost drives wild and let the rivers of blood flow free for her revenge.
lyrics
She has crowned herself queen
Of this wooded domain
And any man who crosses her path will
Be in a shallow grave
She is the predator, and they're the prey
She holds a vicious wrath, for any man
She met her own death, tortured and raped
And now she haunts these evergreens, they hold in her memory
Of the sting of the rope, as he tied her to the tree
The knife across her belly, that's when she began to scream
He grabbed her by the throat, then the tears began to fall
Now her screams are heard as the night falls
I was nothing, and now I am god
I was the shadow, and now I am not
I was the faceless, until they face me
So let the rivers of blood flow free, yeah
She was nothing, and now she is god
She was the victim, and now she is not
She is the whisper behind every tree
She'll make the rivers of blood flow free, yeah
Oh, they don't know the evil that was sown
Of how her body lies rotted beneath the snow
They came to party, and then she was seen
A shadow in the mist, a murderous queen
With the length of a rope, there she tied them to a tree
Ran a knife across their bellies, and then they began to scream
She grabbed one by the throat, and the tears began to fall
With a wild cackle, she told them all
I was nothing, and now I am god
I was the shadow, and now I am not
I was the faceless, until they face me
So let the rivers of blood flow free, yeah
She was nothing, and now she is god
She was the victim, and now she is not
She is the whisper behind every tree
She'll make the rivers of blood flow free, yeah
The power flows through her veins
As another victim's made again
Another shallow grave
Then she returns to being nothing again
Until she's not
Until she's god
Then they will see
Then they will bleed
They will bleed, yeah

Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke

Whoa. Imagine having slugs coming out of your mouth like that. Slug slime probably has some healing medicinal properties. What would it do if it accumulated in the throat. Hail The Mother. Honor The Mother. Respect The Mother. ♥️💜💝 Michael

I recently made a joke on Twitter calling for a new heavy metal sub-genre, depressive suicidal power metal. And someone commented, “Isn’t that just epic doom metal?”. At the time, I just chuckled to myself, but that user was clearly onto something. This EP definitely feels about as close to depressive suicidal power metal as we may get, and it’s rife with elements of power, doom, and trad metal. The new wave of traditional heavy metal is here, and Mourn the Light have a torch burning! Kirk Gauthier
