THE SWORD - GODS OF THE EARTH (CD)The Sword Gods Of The Earth (CD) The highly anticipated sophomore album from the Sword has arrived. With Gods of the Earth, the Sword prepare to build upon the foundation they laid with their critically acclaimed debut Age Of Winters and continue to lead modern day metal's forward change. The are back here with another dose of their stoner tainted metal wall of groove and from the moment the album’s lead track “The Sundering” explodes, it is immediately apparent that they have upped the ante with a sound all their own. More ambitious, more accomplished and simply bigger, Gods of the Earth’s huge, mountain top-friendly hooks, thunderous drumming and oceanic bass lines cut through the air like a scythe, while the ominous vocals of frontman J.D. Cronise weave fantastical tales rife with myth and mythology. Waves of powerful riffs and low-end thunder dominate songs such as; “Maiden, Mother and Crone,” “Fire Lances of the Ancient Hyperzephyrians,” “Under the Boughs” and the paralyzing “The Black River." You can tell the band is from Texas because their sound is as big as the state! The Sword Gods Of The Earth Track Listing 1. The Sundering |
