about

This song is a tribute to Kentaro Miura and is about the Fantasia Arc from the manga / anime Berserk ! For us, his work is an absolute monument of Dark Fantasy with incredible character development, storytelling and lore. It is one of the best work of Fantasy ever !

This song is part of an EP called "From Midland And Beyond" dedicated to Berserk and it marks our turning point to Power Metal. That's the style we'll compose from now on.

lyrics

The Merrow's Chant

Over the seas they have sailed
To finally find the isle, Elf helm
They will slay abyssal gods, conquer the waves, break all the rocks
That will fall along their way

The broken ship reaches the dreadry shore
From a forgotten place, remnant of yore
The peasants in these menacing times
Scrutinize them, and wait for the fight

The lonely girl finds the sailor
She lost her clan in the icy meanders
And languishes her forgotten mother
She escapes the mad creatures

Over the seas they have sailed
To finally find the isle, Elf helm
They will slay abyssal gods, conquer the waves, break all the rocks
That will fall along their way

On the huge waves of the horizon
Sails the crew for its expedition
Off the lonely and barren coasts
When it was chased by ghosts

The 27 guns thunder
And the brigands are sent from the bottom
Banished into filthy tentacles
Of a god, vile aberration

Over the seas they have sailed
To finally find the isle, Elf helm
They will slay abyssal gods, conquer the waves, break all the rocks
That will fall along their way

Woken up on the fateful day
Its mouth threatens to annihilate
When the warrior and his enchanted friend
Slice into the beast and pierce it to the end

Lost in the pit of their slashed round
The merrows sing revealing sounds
And with their cheerfully rallied daughter
They leap from the water for the winning hour

Over the seas they have sailed
To finally find the isle, Elf helm
They will slay abyssal gods, conquer the waves, break all the rocks
That will fall along their way
