lyrics

To set your soul at odds with nature
To take your glory from the danger
Where the mountain peak designs your death
Where the altitude despoils your breath
Where the biting winds of heaven blow
Over bodies mummified in snow
Green Boots waits in the cave
Deathly guide on my way
Frozen hearts, hearts that must dare
Climb this peak, ‘cause the peak is there
To seek the mountaineer’s high altar
To walk alone and ne’er to falter
Through the ropes and rocks I find my way
To make the top alone by end of day
Within the death zone I shall not be cowed
With just my wits I vanish into cloud
Now, ascend the north face
Reach the summit of space
Frozen stars shine on the bold
Now descend, but it’s so, so cold
With the frostbite chewing deeper
With the sickness sinking in
With the cerebral oedema
So, the freezing night begins
Out on the steps, you’re going blind
Basecamp I have to find
Out on the ledge, so short of breath
Just a while I stop to rest
On the peak I’ll remain
Green Boots joined in his cave
Frozen prayers fade up to God
Sleep serene, ‘midst the snows untrod

Dream Quest Ends
by Smoulder

supported by 5 fans who also own “Sharp's Cairn”

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka

IMHO, one of those albums that catches your attention immediately, but needs a few listens to really appreciate how great it is. Getting addicted guys, really! sachavonkarl74

I love myself some classic heavy metal, especially when the vocals are as strong as with Lady Beast. What a discovery! dcdirkzwager
