lyrics

When you face him, don’t draw your sword
Don’t meet his eye, he will strike you down

Born a killer, his only pleasure
Tyrant’s dog, slave to the crown

Little one,if you meet him,
What will you say? “All he knows is war”

The Hound
Is
At your door

(Chorus)
Sing me a song, little bird, little liar
Of death and war, and lives that expire
Tell me a tale, little wolf, little liar
Tell me of anything, anything but fire

And if the flames burn him away
What would you say? “He deserved to pay”

Twisted man, heartless, cruel
Drunken ass, always played the fool

What did you know? Could you be wrong?
What did he want? Only a song

The Hound
Is
No more

Sing me a song, little bird, little liar
Of death and war, and lives that expire
Tell me a tale, little wolf, little liar
Tell me of anything, anything but fire

I will see my brother die
I will see my brother die
I will see my brother die
I will see my brother die

THE FOURTH SEAL (2017)

Another bad-ass slab of sludge from local Chicago masters Pale Horseman. Their new drummer helps set this record apart from their other offerings. Go ahead and break the seal on this one. Sacred Monster

TRANSCANADIAN ANGER
by DOPETHRONE

supported by 24 fans who also own “The Hound”

This album is an absolute banger. The riffs are especially groovy this time, the vocals are amazing, and the overall thing is supercatchy. If I'd have to list one downside, it's that the mix is so bass-heavy that the sound only truely comes into it's right when listened on good headphones or extremely good speakers. On anything less it can sound like the bass drowns the rest of the music out. 9/10 Buzzario
