Die Schweizer Folk/Black Metal-Band Morgarten hat gerade ein Lyric-Video für «Tales of My Lands» veröffentlicht, die zweite Single ihres neuen Albums «Cry of the Lost». Morgarten kommentiert die neue Single:
«‚Tales of My Lands‘ is the starting point of the story that ‚Cry of the Lost‘ is based on. It’s about the day a man realizes who he’s meant to be and that he longs for the outdoors. With the song, we want to show this man’s excitement and his dreams, his thirst for great things and for travel, and his will to be a warrior.»
In search of battles and victories, Morgarten has been touring Europe since 2005. In addition to several short European tours, Morgarten has performed at international festivals such as Occultfest (NL), Brainstorm Festival (NL), Devils Rock For An Angel (BE), Mannried Open Air (CH), Winter Armageddon (DE) and Rise Of Trolls (BE). The band was also requested to be the opening act for Finntroll during their visit to Switzerland in 2018.
Now Morgarten is back with their new album «Cry of the Lost», which will surely not disappoint fans of folk and black metal! The album was mixed by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Dimmu Borgir, Amon Amarth) and mastered by Tony Lindgren (Opeth, Eluveitie, Sepultura). For the drums, Morgarten visited Fascination Street Studio’s to have David Castillo (Carcass, Opeth, Leprous) do the recording. The result is a high-quality release that will please fans of bands like Ensiferum, Eluveitie and Wind Rose. Morgarten proves that they are the leading folk and black metal band from French-speaking Switzerland and with their new album, Morgarten is ready to march on the European battlefields once again!
I have been travelling for two days, carried by the bard’s words,
Singing the beauty of our landscapes and the myths related to them
I feel rooted in these lands that have seen me grow up,
Vibrating with these men I call brothers, dancing with the daughters of the villageBut underneath the surface is an old echo that calls
Buried dreams, which in a crash reappearNow that the bard is singing of brave warriors,
I have a feeling that these lands, once so vast,
Have become too small for me
I yearn for my name to be sung in the vigils, tooHow are the sights beyond the mountains?
How would it be to ride across the Great Plains?
How would it feel to be seated at a table with kings?They told me that my dream was too big for me,
I buried it deep down to keep that void quiet
Today, my ramparts are shattered,
Swept away by this cry, which has become too powerfulI will be a warrior, I will travel the earth,
for my destiny to be fulfilled
and my tale to be counted by bards
