    Wings of the Joyful on CD. (Plus a sticker.)

    Due to a manufacturing error, the CD is missing track 4 "Hunger." The printers will not replace the discs or reimburse us for the error. So we've dropped the price considerably to hopefully move stock and recoup some of the money spent.

    We found out shortly after this that the discs also won't play in some CD players. Please order with caution. Also, FUCK DIRECTCDS.CO.UK

lyrics

Die

Sorcerers of blackened obsolescence
Horrid mind, a labyrinth for worms
Putrefying words spewed down into their hands
And thrown upon a canvas of repugnance

Screaming
Seeking
Dreaming
Believing

THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
NO ODIN UP IN THEIR EMPTY SKY
THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE

The loudest and the ugliest voices crash down
A crescendo of ego stroked vomit
Masters of nothing save their own hyperbole
"Wolves" that are all bark and no bite

Screaming
Seeking
Dreaming
Believing

THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
NO ODIN UP IN THEIR EMPTY SKY
THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE

Self-proclaimed masters
Abominations in the eyes
Those whom they are pledged to
Their dead kings scoff from the grave
Lunatics of a dirty breed
Designing their kingdom from scraps
And those dead kings sigh
"You would have been the first to die"

The first in line

THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
NO ODIN UP IN THEIR EMPTY SKY
THEY ARE THE FIRST TO DIE
