about
This song tells the story of a dying soul passing this life and this world into the hands of the next generation.
lyrics
Conquer & Command
Seize this life
With curious hands
Your breath
fades into foreign lands
Yet to explore
Make your move
Into your very own lore
Take your place and make your stand
Conquer and command
Another day
Is set to fade away
The broken dusk
Grows from a dying sun
Beyond the warming dust
Ignites a flame
Not yet lightened
But soon to come
Deeper into blackness
Grow the blurry shades
Blinded eyes in darkness
No further step, no further way
Set to rest
To pass
This world in anothers hands
Ro rise
To fight
To conquer and command
Another night
Arisen from the aftermath of light
The abscence
Of presence
Turning into the existence
Of the antagonist
Peripherist
Within his distinctiveness
Closer to the edge
A scratch
On the surface of our insides
The blind side of all bright shines
Possessed
By the drive for life
Blessed
By the kiss of the knife
I witnessed
The sickness
Of man evolving further than before
No more
Natural selection
Bearing perfection
Throughout death and a new day
A new chance
Rolling the dices again and again
Endless circulation
Of extinction and creation
You lose, you fade
You win, you mate
Special, special
No one is special
But a coinsidence
An experiment
The next end
In mother natures tournament
Seize this life
With curious hands
Your breath
fades into foreign lands
Yet to explore
Make your move
Into your very own lore
Take your place and make your stand
Conquer and command
Another day
Is set to fade away
The broken dusk
Grows from a dying sun
Beyond the warming dust
Ignites a flame
Not yet lightened
But soon to come
Deeper into blackness
Grow the blurry shades
Blinded eyes in darkness
No further step, no further way
Set to rest
To pass
This world in anothers hands
Ro rise
To fight
To conquer and command
Another night
Arisen from the aftermath of light
The abscence
Of presence
Turning into the existence
Of the antagonist
Peripherist
Within his distinctiveness
Closer to the edge
A scratch
On the surface of our insides
The blind side of all bright shines
Possessed
By the drive for life
Blessed
By the kiss of the knife
I witnessed
The sickness
Of man evolving further than before
No more
Natural selection
Bearing perfection
Throughout death and a new day
A new chance
Rolling the dices again and again
Endless circulation
Of extinction and creation
You lose, you fade
You win, you mate
Special, special
No one is special
But a coinsidence

The next end

It's hard to choose a favourite track, because all of them are amazing, but I guess I love this song most, just great!

What Lasts Forever
by Nyktophobiasupported by 4 fans who also own “Conquer and Command”
German Melodic Death Metal. Non-stop blast beats & tremolo riffs as well as fantastic melodies - what more could you want? FFO Amon Amarth (but better!) & Insomnium. My only problem is it is far too short for a full length & more is needed... :) Lucky I bought their entire discography! Highly recommended!!!

As far as Viking atmosphere goes in metal, I doubt there is a better band than Havamal. Their name suits them. The album keeps boosting the euphoria and ends off with one of the best tracks on it. Never lets go. The only natural thing to do is to set it on LOOP and go through the adventure again. Obligatory gym playlist material.
