Flat and silent the ocean lies
Pequod's captured in a lull
No gentle breeze blows in the sails
Heated by a salty carpet from above
The crew's emaciated, survival tough
Giant billows bear a mighty whiteness
Screams from the outlook: whale ahead!
I want this whale, I want it dead!
Hysteria on upper deck
Rabid flames in Ahab's eyes
Hustle and bustle, drag and pull
Panic affects the whaler's moves
The harpoon slashes the water's surface
Diving into darkness the prey escapes
Swallowed by the sea
Starboard lies calm
Portside full of wrath
Possessed by unhuman anger
The heart brawly pumps the blood
Through the marionette of rage
Ahab's visage runs red
I want this whale, I want it dead!
A fin erupts from the abyss
Proudly undulates the flesh
Reaches bright horizons
Inviolable, manorial
An arrow loosens
And spirit's away.
The lyrics THE HUNT of AHAB is also present in the album The call of the wretched sea (2006)
Ahab è un gruppo musicale tedesco di doom metal, formatosi nel 2007 a Hamburg. Conosciuti per il loro sound epico e atmosferico, fortemente influenzato dal genere post-metal e dalla musica classica, Ahab esplora temi di isolamento, disperazione e la lotta contro le forze oscure dell'oceano. Il loro stile musicale è caratterizzato da riff pesanti, melodie malinconiche e un uso innovativo di strumenti orchestrali. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si annoverano "The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea", "Oceanic Verses" e "Ebb and Flow". L'album di debutto "The Call of the Void" (2009) ha segnato l'inizio della loro ascesa nel panorama metal internazionale. Ahab è considerato uno dei gruppi più influenti del doom metal moderno, con un seguito fedele in tutto il mondo.
