about

The Derelict is planned for the third album.

lyrics

Sat in the bay, a new dawn's light
The crew's aboard
The sails raised, the wind it soars
Start drifting from shore
The waves are caressing the bow
The harbour it fades
Looking ahead on the sunrise
Their voyage begins

Off Santa Maria, there's no way home
The wind in the sails, the fate of all these men are chosen

And the finger points at you
As the darkness heaves the waves
And the nightmare's taunting you
As the ember feeds the flames

By the grace of god, a sight is seen
Acquaintance of old
Two souls they board, not a sound is heard
Desertion of all
Nothing disturbed, no provisions served
Situation absurd
Their story goes, nobody knows
A legend it grows

Off Santa Maria, there's no way home
The wind in the sails, the fate of all these men are chosen

And the finger points at you
As the darkness heaves the waves
And the nightmare's taunting you
As the ember feeds the flames

Water filling the hold
Sails tattered and torn
Yawl missing and more
Provisions still in the stores

And the finger points at you
As the darkness heaves the waves
And the nightmare's taunting you
As the ember feeds the flames

The Last Ride
by Hamerex

supported by 5 fans who also own “The Derelict”

Traditional British metal here with a distinctly Maiden flavour to both Steve Blowers vocals and guitar work. But Last Ride is also studded with elements of early speed (Raven?), infused with enough punk snarl to keep the more expansive power metal elements nicely grounded Bloodbath Fanzine
