Salve a tutti i derecensionisti sono iras halgor e sono il nuovo acquisto di DeBaser.

Nel 1997 con "Legendary Tales" inizia l'epica avventura dei mighty warrior triestini conosciuti come Rhapsody. Primo capitolo della "Emerald Sword Saga" decisamente il meno pomposo dal punto di vista sinfonico e sicuramente il più metal.

L'album e composto da 10 canzoni.

1. "Ira Tenax": Classica intro che caratterizzarà tutti i full album della band. Tenebrosa ed efficace.

2. "Warrior of Ice": Stupenda, classica canzone power metal meravigliosa la parte cantata dal coro in cui invita tutti i fratelli di Irengard a marciare. Canzone per tutti.

3. "Rage Of The Winter": Intro da paura parte centrale delicata e armoniosa, fino a quando Turilli e Staropoli iniziano una gara di virtuosismo che sembra non aver fine. Visionaria.

4. "Forest Of Unicorns": Forse uno dei migliori testi scritti da Turilli purtoppo la musica non asseconda bene le parole. Sprecata.

5. "Flames Of Revenge": Questa canzone e veramente un fuoco che arde chiuso con uno splendido coro alla fine. Maestosa.

6. "Virgin Skies": Delicata canzone strumentale che si pone come corpo estraneo nel album. Armoniosa.

7. "Land Of Immortals": L'intro e simile a quello di flames of revenge ma il continuo e un susseguirsi di capolavori. Ottima la voce di Lione eccellente il botta e risposta tra la chitarra di Turiili e le tastiere di Staopoli- Capolavoro.

8. "Echoes of Tragedy": Secondo corpo estraneo nel album sembra composta da un'altra band dalle differenze che si riscontrano con le altre canzoni. "Inconsistente".

9. "Lord Of Thunder": Prima canzone dei "Rhapsody" in cui l incrocio tra le sinfonie e il metal si incontrano buona canzone ma: precedente pericoloso.

10. "Legendary Tales": Canzone lunga e ripetitiva poco coinvolgente, brutta conclusione per un album decisamente buono per essere il primo della band. Terribile.

Chiudo qui la mia prima derecensione spero che col passare del tempo di riuscire a scriverne di piu belle ma per adesso BECCATEVI QUESTA!

Demons of abyss wait for my pride
on wings of glory I'll fly brave and wild
I'll stop your madness your thirst for blood
to bring them peace where love must reign

A while ago the elder told dark will fall again
my land will see the light no more my beloved Algalord
My horse run wild the beast is back to conquer my reign
the sea the hills rivers and lakes call my holy name

Fight your holy war raise your mighty sword and ride
You're the chosen face the evil son of holy ice

Mighty warrior for the legend ride again
from the hills for peace and love to the sea of gold

I cross the forest of the elves while my heart pounds fast
sky is grey wind no more time has stopped its race
My horse run wild the beast is back to conquer my reign
the sea the hills rivers and lakes call my holy name

Fight your holy war raise your mighty sword and ride

on the grass where blood we'll shed
flowers of real hope will bud again
And on the grass where blood we'll shed
flowers of hope will bud again

Now leave your soul castles united we'll be strong
I'll lead you to this holy war to save all our thrones
to give our people the joy to be free
to see our beloved sun shine again

Mighty warrior for the legend ride again

05   Flames of Revenge (05:34)

My princess why must I assist at your death
I can't endure this tragic pain
now I close your eyes while thunder strikes the sky
I cry to see the innocent die
Brothers I'm ready the ride can begin
for you I must win

Now the time has come farewell my dear old friends
Ancelot is calling for my help
From the sun of Elgard to the middle plains
for salvation of enchanted lands
I'm looking forward to avenge all those killed
to be face to face

Fire and steel
follow me through my lands
you will burn hordes of hell
in the deadly raging flames of revenge

Come out from your abyss the tears seek revenge
for this cruel tragedy flames are burning high

Brothers I'm ready the ride can begin
for you I must win

Fire and steel
follow me through my lands
you will burn hordes of hell
in the deadly raging flames of revenge

06   Virgin Skies (01:20)

[Part I: Tharos Last Flight]

"Oh, cruel, destiny... The tears soon covered the warrior's face and Tharos,
the beloved dragon, spread his wings for the last time, happy to have found
the freedom at least in death... Fly... fly high, mighty Tharos... Your name
will always be remembered by the people of the enchanted lands... and your
memory will march with us forever against the hordes of the black lord for
the salvation of the enchanted lands.
Goodbye, brother... goodbye...!!"

[Part II: The Hymn of the Warrior]

God of dawn, father of thunder
Lord of the wind now blowing on me
Thank you for all, for your holy sign
For mountains and hills, the forest, the sea
for all those dead and for my princess
they'll shed their blood cause finally
the emerald sword is now mine

[Part III: Rex Tremende]

For what you did to them
you will burn in my hate

Son of hell betrayer of light
king of the dark your name is carved on my steel
for your will the innocent die every day
but my sword will soon come for you all
and your kingdom will fall
and you'll be dust again forever

Rex tremende semper inimice
ad gloriam perpetuam brave all we'll march
to give you the eternal agony

Love magic word fill all my dreams eternally use me
Love guide me to ecstasy to victory to infinity
to rhymes of winds to the voice of the dead
to innocence of my memory

Rape of earth I want your head
sadist pig I can't forgive what you did
all the blood you're sucking out of my land
But my sword will soon come for you all
and your kingdom will fall
and you'll be dust again forever

Rex tremende semper inimice
ad gloriam perpetuam brave all we'll march
to give you the eternal agony

[Part IV: The Immortal Fire]

"Go, mighty warrior... The kings of enchanted lands are awaiting your
victory! Ride on the wings of wisdom, ride beyond the middle valleys to
defeat the master of chaos in the name of cosmic justice. Peace and love
forever!"

08   Echoes of Tragedy (03:32)

Where sun creates shadow's games
where tragic echoes speak of death why Lord why
between the ruins through lakes of holy blood
I walk in tears for my wasted land

Echoes of tragedy carved on my steel
in this neverending fight against the beast
soldiers of twilight turn back to hell
burn in your fire of glory for me will be your end

Mothers and children embraced in blood
torture and rape will leave their sign
after the sorrow I call the holy rage
burn in my heart now flames of blind hate

Echoes of tragedy carved on my steel
in this neverending fight against the beast
soldiers of twilight turn back to hell
burn in your fire of glory for me will be your end

09   Lord of the Thunder (05:34)

Born in the time of darkness and evil under the
sign of God glory's my mother fire's my brother
sword my holy law. Into the land of chaos and
hate there is no place for me and for the conquest
of justice and honour I will use my steel

Holy flame burn again for eternity burn my heart to win.
The holy war is awaiting another fiery king

Rage in my heart crossing the forest riding my
black horse Across the valley along the river
where the hot blood flows. Over the lakes and
over the hills I follow the call of the wind uphold
the legend and for my princess I will fight and win

Holy flame burn again for eternity burn my heart to win.
The holy war is awaiting another fiery king

Lord of the thunder please be my guide
before and after my last ride
I'll be your soldier serving the light
riding forever alive and proud

Holy flame burn again for eternity burn my heart to win.
The holy war is awaiting another fiery king

Lord of the thunder please be my guide
before and after my last ride
I'll be your soldier serving the light
riding forever alive and proud

10   Legendary Tales (07:49)

And darkness covers all the land
the silent river flows
the jesters dance around the flame
playing an ancient song

A song of mighty warriors
of epic bloody fights
while moonlight meets the manor's walls
and I must close my eyes

Another tale of infinite wars
for the defenders of holy light
the fire enters my mind
the blood of the innocent before my eyes
spreading the wings of the dream
I want to win between fire and steel
for them all

Some knights sleep near fire
drowned in their own red wine
the elder looks at the high flame
knowing the fight will reprise

The magic twittering of the birds
meets the light of dawn
the ancient song is fading now
but my old dream carries on

Another tale of infinite wars
for the defenders of holy light
the fire enters my mind
the blood of the innocent before my eyes
spreading the wings of the dream
I want to win between fire and steel
for them all
