Where is the fighting man?
Am I he?
You would trade every truth
For hollow victories
Maybe I find some solace in the thought that many millions before me have faced similar struggles, as their people fade into obscurity and their empires crumble, like clockwork. Regardless, the one-two punch of the first two tracks on this album (“Empire Falls” and “Gallows Hymn”) are among the most powerful experiences in metal. Enjoy them, and perhaps ask yourself, are you the fighting man? Or are you doing little but growing old?
