Black blades in their hands
Obey his every command
They search for that which was lost
Through realms of rime and of frost
Where no mortal may pass
Atop a dais of glass
Sits a scepter of light
A symbol of titan's might
He comes from cities of darkness
To suffer harlots and fools
Loneliness is his raiment
Solitude is his jewel
He's seen the valleys of solace
Beheld the spires of sleep
He's fed the pyres of the fallen
And heard their widows weep
We come from cities in darkness
To conquer cowards and fools
Loneliness is our payment
Solitude is our due
Walk through valleys of solace
Ascend the spires of sleep
Ignore the warnings of prophets
And for your children I'll weep
Skies blackened with crows
Shadows on winter's snow
Within a temple of ice
Priestesses perform the rites
Witness the setting of suns
The darkest days have begun
Let the seers come forth
At morning's light we ride north
The lyrics EBETHRON of THE SWORD is also present in the album Age of winters (2006)
The Sword è un gruppo musicale statunitense di stoner metal formatosi ad Austin, Texas nel 2003. Il nucleo fondante del gruppo è costituito da J.D. Cronise (voce, chitarra), che aveva già esperienza con la band Those Peabodys. Dopo aver selezionato diversi musicisti, ha trovato l'assetto definitivo con Kyle Shutt alla chitarra ritmica, Bryan Richie al basso e Trivett Wingo alla batteria. La musica di The Sword è caratterizzata da riff pesanti, melodie epiche e un sound ispirato ai classici del heavy metal degli anni '70 e '80. Tra i loro album più importanti figurano "Age of Winters" (2006), "Gods of the Earth" (2008) e "Apocryphon" (2012). The Sword si sono sciolti nel 2016, lasciando un'eredità di riff memorabili e un impatto significativo sulla scena stoner metal.
