[Note: This is a duplicate post, but I'dike to see what people on the ol' original opeth forum think!]
I finally finished recording this song:
http://users.ncable.net.au/~ekmccody/08%20-%20Innus.mp3
This is the last song on the album "Triumphant". I still have to record track 7 for the album, which will be "The Nightress Mourns". Anyways, Throughout the Triumphant album, the first 4 songs are the prequel, then the next 3 songs describe the three heroes of the story, then this, the final track, is the song for the bad guy, the ultimate evil dood. He yells and screams and carries on like a bad person.
Though, I must say, this is the song that I am the lest happy with. It's almost a complete failure in my opinion. I almost scrapped it, but meh, I'll post it anyways. Also, 10 points to whoever can guess what album I have been listening to to influence my more aggressive/cheesy vocals.
Here is the cover I'm going to use for triumphant (for now):
Thoughts?
Also, here are the lyrics for Innus, which were actually followed only very loosely in the actual recording, so if you try to sing along, they probably won't match up. My excuse is I'm just copying devin townsend. I love these lyrics though, My best to date in my opinion:
Innus
-----
Hoardings of valor
Deceptions intoned
Icons inturned
Upon thrice throne
Decrepid host
Notice your field
Spoken like a pose
Heressey in veils
Like it or not I approach
Heed my misanthropic words
You may cringe but not depart
For my song sinks in beyond you
Silence!
Fools and thebians
Sleepers!
Heed my nightmares
Siblings!
Eunuchs of my creed
Miscreants!
I will erase your mistake
Nothing is worth anything
Until I have made everything nothing
I've unmade myself to make this world
I will unmake this world to remake myself
Representatives come forth for thrice times smitten
You try to impose you mystic lies and I will impose oblivion
Cornered essence concerned singularity
Infinate nothings of zero swallow you all
Hang on your tree
Fasten to your cross
Or bury thee in flame
I sit in grey.
Prostrators!
Give up your grovelling
Lyers!
Morbid tales of seeking
Followers!
You can't follow nothing
Philosophers!
Feel the drowning grey
Corrupted Legion of unmade souls
Gouls of old fall forth
With the grey front
Comes a storm of despair
The horde of wraiths heads home
To reclaim the distorted north
Like old times the host proceed
To Decimate all life and souls
Tolling epiphanance
Summit of epitaphs pass
Silent visions of sounds for the blind
Mindless thoughts for muted tongues
Into the sun blind
Writhing we distort
Legions of dishonesty
Ranks of decay
Moving forth with malice
One mind and numbness
Grey and colourless
We conquer
Conquerers!
The path is gray
Beggers!
You will plead for death
Madmen!
Close your ears
Children!
Your minds are mine!!
The shores are ready and the skiffs are strong
Prepared for the arrival of the three alone
Weak to the eye but united in spirit
A foe not to be underestimated
Before the second coming of the unmade
This dish of revenge must first be prepared
For my vision of no vision to prevail
Disasterous hope must be crushed to fail
Come forth weak child
Come forth slutty witch
Come forth old man
Come forth in vain
Come into my child of pain
Bleed from your eyes
Bleed from your ears
Bleed from your mouth
Bleed from inside
Kill into the blood
Kill into the nothingness
Kill into the mind
Kill into mind
Blood drains into I
Blood drains into Me
Blood drains into Everything
Blood drains into None
Feel This Nothingness
Feel This Hate
Feel This Everything
Feel This Grey
Hang on your tree
Fasten to your cross
Or bury thee in flame
I sit in grey.
Killers!
Redemption is near
Sinners!
Rewards are plenty
Failures!
Enjoy my escence
Givers!
Take nothing at all
Soldiers!
The time is at hand
Bleeders!
Send forth your wisps
Omens!
Step aside for truth
Fate!
I am the fate
Villains! Miscreants! Curse You! I Hate You!
Beleivers! Mystics! Curse You! I Hate You!
Godlambs! Weak sheep! Curse You! I Hate You!
Lyers! Murderers! Curse You! I Hate You!
Look what you've made me do
You've brought this on yourselves
Die in pain of oblivion
If that is what you fucking wish
Prostrators!
Give up your grovelling
Lyers!
Morbid tales of seeking
Followers!
You can't follow nothing
Philosophers!
Feel the drowning grey
I am fate
END.
I hope you did or didn't enjoy it!!
