lyrics
Skies darken above the throne
Fires of rebellion burn in the night
Behind his walls the monarch trembles
Shining steel to crush 'divine right'
Thunder roars and lightning strikes
Freedom calls the king must die
His banners to burn before the morn
In a blazing storm revenge is nigh
(chorus)
The castle walls are coming down
The king today will lose his crown
With spite his illicit rule we spurn
On this night the throne we burn
The last of a long line of usurpers
Finally shall meet with his just fate
The castle soon reduced to rubble
When legions of steel storm the gate
The monarch's reign now ends in blood
His birthright void, his minions slain
The castle burns, the crown is crushed
Our swords the royal bloodline's bane
(chorus)
Fires of rebellion burn in the night
Behind his walls the monarch trembles
Shining steel to crush 'divine right'
Thunder roars and lightning strikes
Freedom calls the king must die
His banners to burn before the morn
In a blazing storm revenge is nigh
(chorus)
The castle walls are coming down
The king today will lose his crown
With spite his illicit rule we spurn
On this night the throne we burn
The last of a long line of usurpers
Finally shall meet with his just fate
The castle soon reduced to rubble
When legions of steel storm the gate
The monarch's reign now ends in blood
His birthright void, his minions slain
The castle burns, the crown is crushed
Our swords the royal bloodline's bane
(chorus)

Phantasmhassgorie
by BlackdeathLatest album from the masters of Russian BM, with whom we had the pleasure of touring together a couple of years ago. Unique, bass-heavy BM executed with the utmost precision!

Road to Infinity (2018)
by SythThis may be the best metal album released in 2018. Very Maidenesque, but by no means a clone. If you are a metalhead, you HAVE to hear this record!

Is it rock? Punk? Metal? Who cares, it's rock & roll! DemonScar are one of those bands that have that thing so few do these days: authenticity. Anyway, they rock so check them out!

Youth in Ribbons
by Revenant Marquissupported by 13 fans who also own “Burn The Throne”
Revenant Marquis continues with the subterranean vocals on this album. Percussion sound on all tracks has a very large sound, especially the bass drum. Guitar is generally very clean. The more I listen, the more I get Xasthur vibes, but with a more rock and roll influence. Still very depressive and chaotic. A cool album!
