lyrics
Age of the Mabden
for centuries the old races lived in peace and prosperity. no conflict for hundreds of years. but it's the conjunction of the million spheres and all things are possible, the age has come of gods, men, and death!
the prince in the scarlet robe will leave his home
as the earl and his savage hordes pillage the land
blood is spilled upon the stones and castles are burned
tortured and maimed, the last of his kind
it's the age of the Mabden!
the sword rulers will play their games
age of the Mabden!
brings doom upon the old races
age of the Mabden!
chaos spreads across the land
age of the Mabden
so says the duke!
awaken in agony, waiting for death is this a dream? set free by the giant beast of Laahr. brought to a Mabden sanctuary but things are not quite what they seem thoughts of revenge are never very far!
seasons came and seasons passed, some feelings changed some stayed the same. the earl brings a thousand sword force!
the soldiers are rust, defenses are not what they used to be. the Margravine's last resort was sorcery!
in the age of the Mabden!
the sword rulers will play their games
age of the Mabden!
brings doom upon the old races
age of the Mabden!
chaos spreads across the land
age of the Mabden
so says the duke!
the tribes flee from the summoning, the princes joins the dead. they sail by night to Svi-an-Fanla-Brool. a faint green glow upon the sea, his lover trapped how can this be? only a pact with the
sorcerer will set her free...
with the hand and with the eye of the lost gods. sailing beyond the thousand-league reef! journey through the Flamelands into the lions mouth. for a chance to steal the heart of Arioch!
it's the age of the Mabden!
the sword rulers will play their games
age of the Mabden!
brings doom upon the old races
age of the Mabden!
chaos spreads across the land
age of the Mabden
so says the duke!

Times of Obscene Evil and Wild Daring

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way.

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good.
