lyrics

Smashing opponents
And stealing their waelth
Leave nothing but ashes
With nothing to help

Straighten the spines
Of the warrior cast
And believe

Bathing in honor
While striking with speed
Reducing your enemy
For glory you bleed

Wipe out the weak
Until there is no sign
Of disease

Bow down to the daughter of the empire
Restoring former glory to its name
Crushing all your foes with steel and fire
Mistress of destruction, endless pain

Stand in her way
You're lain to waste
She throws the scraps
To the dogs of war
Licking clean the plate

The bodies they fall
Like waves of rain
The wine will flow
The blood will drain
Life and death become the same

Nothing can stop her
It's futile to try

Don't you try

Nothing can save you
In failure you die

Bow down to the daughter of the empire
Restoring former glory to its name
Crushing all your foes with steel and fire
Mistress of destruction, endless pain

Bow down, bow down
To the daughter of the empire
The daughter of the empire

Bow down, bow down
To the daughter of the empire
The daughter of the empire

I'm sad to see this era of Beastmaker close out but this is a phenomenal way to do! Black Butterfly might be the best thing they've ever done. dianonhead

"...Spell liken their music to “hypnotic heavy metal” and it’s a truly spot on description from hem. From the first notes of Tragic Magic to the final ones, it holds you and puts you into a trance like no other that by the end of it you feel different. You gotta sit with what you just heard and soak it in before moving on." Read more on Antifascist Steel: https://tinyurl.com/wd3nfsp karol tolstoy

I didn't realize how great Beastmaker were until I put this in and really gave it a good listen. Man, if anyone ever sounded like the mighty Black Sabbath it's these guys and that's a major compliment! Sabbath made me the metalhead I am today. So super happy to discover these guys. Guitar tone is heavy as shit and the singer has that creepy Ozzy sound that's perfect for this music. Beastmaker are the classic Sabbath sound circa 1970. I play this all the time. knutepanhead

Stumbled upon this gem by accident. The band itself has been recommended to me by a friend many moons ago. So damn catchy. bugomag
