Bayonet Wall
03:02
|
|||
|
Sharp as the teeth of a raging wolfpack
Ferocious the hunger, ready to attack
Thrust and cut and pierce the flesh
As we trample the dead in their shrouds of mud
Through gunpowder and acrid stench
The rotten smell of dismembered flesh
Onwards to die for the fatherland
With our rusty knives and bayonets
Bayonets
Forward on these barren lands
Where horror stings with a steady hand
Carnage at the bayonets end
The icy screams in horror and dread
In a rain of shards - In the face of death
Darkest wrath unleashed with hate
Brutal frenzy - skewered on steel
To the spirit of perdition they all will kneel
Dauntless in this brazen attack
The lust for blood, to main and kill
Sharpened blades of rusty steel
The bloodred fangs of a raging beast
On a scarred slope of a battered hill
The reaper and his scythe - a deadly thrill
With a malign kiss god's blood is spilled
His craving for flesh never - fulfilled
His craving for flesh never fulfilled
Sharp as the teeth of a raging wolfpack
Ferocious the hunger, ready to attack
Thrust and cut and pierce the flesh
As we trample the dead in their shrouds of mud
Through gunpowder and acrid stench
The rotten smell of dismembered flesh
Onwards to die for the fatherland
With our rusty knives and bayonets
Dauntless in this brazen attack
The lust for blood, to main and kill
Sharpened blades of rusty steel
The bloodred fangs of a raging beast
On a scarred slope of a battered hill
The reaper and his scythe - a deadly thrill
With a malign kiss god's blood is spilled
His craving for flesh never fulfilled

Sokolov Harvest
04:25
|
|||
|
Unleashed is now its murderous thirst - With venom lead globs spat
The dead fell as a ghastly throng - And countless souls will wake no more
A defence against all attacks - Beholders of the forefront lines
On crimson fields the flesh is torn - Ripped apart by the gears of war
Sokolov harvest - The devil grins
Sokolov harvest - The devil grins
Barrels spit the hellish fire - A steelstorm of unholy hate
Infernal hammers pounding - Cruel their songs of sheer terror
Slash their face and crush their soul - We feast upon their ruins
The gears of war rattle - Hear their torturing wheels
Sokolov harvest - The devil grins
Sokolov harvest - The devil grins
Vanquished dreams – There is no remorse
Murderous depravity – Death rules over all
Death rules over all
Winds of steel, like a hurricane, sweeping over desolate lands
The hungry wolves await their feast in bleak and barren malice
blood and flesh in rotting decay - the awful stench the dying
here remain the mouldering dead - victims of machinegun fire
Sokolov harvest - The devil grins
Sokolov harvest - The devil grins
The devil grins

Osowiec Fortress

|
Strong in resistance - Back to back
But will you hold against a gas attack
Poison them as wretched rats - When the wind is blowing from the west
Retaliate - Break their backs - Drive them out with a chemical attack!
Cough and moan in their trenches deep
The undead rise spitting blood
Their final war - A final breath
Towards oblivion and eternal death
Strong in resistance - Back to back
But will you hold against a gas attack
Smouldering fate in a paradise lost - Vanquished - No quarter given
Life crumbles in a pestilential hiss - They wither and fade with a devils kiss
Coughing blood in their trenches deep
The undead rise to their feet
Their final war - A final breath
Towards oblivion and eternal death
Cough and moan in their trenches deep
The undead rise with rotten breath
Their final war - Internally destroyed
Towards oblivion - They shall not grow old
They shall not grow old

Hussar
03:57
|
|||
|
Endless plains rumble under numerous hooves
Horsemen under the death's head
The thirst of lances soon to be quenched
A lethal union of man and steed
No mercy asked - None will be given
Crudely symbolized - By skull and bones
A steady gallop devours miles on foreign ground
The soil of Courland trembles ominously
All foolish resistance will be trampled
Under a violent deluge of hardened steel
A charge is at hand - Trumpets resound
By a cold lance - Death is dealt
Spearheads drenched in blood
The once barren soil
turned to scarlet mud
True to the Hussar creed
No mercy asked - None will be given
Crudely symbolized - By skull and bones
A charge is at hand - Trumpets resound
By a cold lance - Death is dealt

War is Eternal
02:47
|
|||
|
The blackest pages of history
are written in human blood
There is no Garden of Delights
At the dawn of mankind
But bloodshed and carnage
By increasingly efficient means
Cries of victory and defeat
Resound throughout the ages
War is eternal
The iron of plowshares
Is easily melted
And forged into blades
Modern nations are mass graves
Filled to the brim by fools
Following gods and kings alike
Spurred on by morals and duty
Wooden idols and holy books
Principles and treaties
Victors become ruler s by force of arms
Strife is perpetual and inevitable
War is eternal
The iron of plowshares
Is easily melted
And forged into blades

Charge! Charge! Destiny calls!
Storm the enemy with all your fury
Your rifle clenched in your fists
Divine will, spit in the face of god
Dodging flashes of blazing lead
No fear of death, terror denied
The bloodred morning sun
Dancing on the bayonet blade
Eyes of steel locking - The cold glance of fate
Sawback bayonet raised - Teeth delve into your flesh
Thrust! Thrust! Destiny calls!
This is not the coward's way
The ultimate deadly confrontation
In mere seconds you are judged
No comfort of distance or hiding
Hardened steel against mortal flesh
Long gone are all golden rules
Man facing man, devoid of humanity
Eyes of steel locking - The cold glance of fate
Sawback bayonet raised - Teeth delve into your flesh
Sawback Bayonet Raised
Kill! Kill! Destiny calls!
Your comrades falling left and right
A bountiful harvest of souls
No time for mercy, no weakness!
Run the bayonet through his chest
Feel the jagged blade sink in
Blood foaming from his mouth
Victory is yours, you live another day!
Eyes of steel locking - The cold glance of fate
Sawback bayonet raised - Teeth delve into your flesh

Ghost in the Haze
04:40
|
|||
|
The deluded souls, marked for death
I am the deciever of the weak
A ghost in the haze of the wastelands
The trenches fear my stare
Between the fumes, the powder and the led
Under the cover of a ruined land
The deadly wanderer in no man's land
No time for your lord's prayer
I am the executioner – dealer of despair
My bullet punched a way through your neck
Soaked in your blood you choke to death
No time for your lord's prayer
In this maze of sudden death
Hunting and dwelling in no man’s land
Drain them of hope , drain them of life
Death is ever triumphant
Controlled outburst, always unseen
Through the fumes and smoke
A body twisting in pain
No bells chimed to mark his death
I am the executioner - sweeping the lands
My bullet punched a way through your neck
Soaked in your blood you choke to death
Swallowed by this maze of despair

Fallen Comrade
03:56
|
|||
|
Old faithful comrade, laying in the deadly shadows
Under the glowing moonlight - We hear the whispers of the dead
Calling out from their eternal sleep, as we stand grieving
Gazing deep in your empty eyes, our spirits crushed by your sacrifice
Crushed by your sacrifice
Clinging to life, engulfed by a sea of blood
In the cold embrace of death's rattles
Mercy we drowned in this cauldron of war
Filled with mud and barbed wire
Shameless we stood in disregard
No redemption for their dying nation
As brothers in agony - Shoulder to shoulder
Pushed onwards on the wings of death
Fearlessly engaged in battle
You died for your land, loyalty and honour
You died before the flag
And your death will never be forgotten
Your death will never be forgotten
Clinging to life, engulfed by a sea of blood
In a blazing wind, filled with patriotic choirs
Mercy we drowned in this cauldron of war
Filled with mud and barbed wire
Shameless we stood disregard
No redemption for their dying nation

Thirty Tons of Steel
04:29
|
|||
|
A primal force is recreated
Awakened from a deep sleep
Through German engineering
Beyond the powers of your God
Beholding an early spring sunrise
Eager to invoke horrid carnage
Having been dormant too long
The dawn of the panzer has come
Hear the deep growl of this primordial beast
An unearthly hymn of death and destruction
Dual Daimler hearts pumping steadily
Breathing billowing acrid petrol fumes
Led by the devil, death in its wake
Blood and guts left in its trail
Twenty men in the belly of the beast
Bringing a massacre to your world
Test your luck on this fateful day
In a blazing storm of machine gun fire
For your shredded and maimed remains
A crowded mass grave awaits
Spitting lead in blazing fire
Plated skin defying resistance
There is only death or retreat when
Thirty tons of steel mercilessly grind on
mercilessly grind on
Spitting lead in blazing fire
Plated skin defying resistance
There is only death or retreat when
Thirty tons of steel mercilessly grind on
mercilessly grind on

Faustschlag

Wir marschieren - Der Eisenbahnfeldzug
As we march in the barren lands
The eastern front demobilised and stripped of ranks
Shameful they retreat over Russian lands
As the grip of the central powers expand
Like the ever restless predator
Gazing upon the morningstar
Before the lands are overwhelmed with light
We await the return of the night
Faustschlag - Crush the eastern lines
Faustschlag - A fist in the face of the dying bear
Faustschlag - Im Angesicht des Friedens
Faustschlag - Blazing forth on Russian ground
And from the Baltic to the Black sea - We will see their bloodline end in pure savagery
As we march in the barren lands
The eastern front demobilised and stripped of ranks
Shameful they retreat over Russian lands
As the grip of the central powers expand
Like the ever restless predator
Gazing upon the morningstar
Before the lands are overwhelmed with light
We await the return of the night
Faustschlag - Crush the eastern lines
Faustschlag - A fist in the face of the dying bear
Faustschlag - Im Angesicht des Friedens
Faustschlag - Blazing forth on Russian ground
And from the Baltic to the Black sea - We will see their bloodline end in pure savagery

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity. Favorite Track(s): Die Feuertaufe, Grabenlieder
