Finnish death metal. From the album, "Psychostasia". Released in 1996 by Repulse Records.
The sound of Adramelech's debut album is slightly more evolved than the Spring of Recovery EP. Adramelech ripped a page out of Demilich's book by using a lot of unconventional melody in their riffs. The album is weirdly atmospheric as well. Great Finnish release!
Track 1 - Heroes in Godly Blaze
Odin - the god of nocturnal storms
ranged the sky with his horse
deciding man's fate
When there was a battle on earth
Odin sent his valkyries
to mingle with the combatants and determine
which warriors should fall
And they awarded - victory and glory
to those combatants - who won their favour
After the bloodbath - they returned to Valhalla
announced to Odin - those who would join the troop
In the splendour of his holyness - he rarely appeared
but in a disguise - he travelled the world
creating warriors - so strong and glorious
from ordinary men
grew up so splendid heroes
Heroes in godly blaze
He knew the spells - which cured the illness
magic formulas - which broke the chains
Those which rendered - weapons so powerless
dead could speak, waves could rose
- by his magic spells
