Wednesday, November 8: Gods Tower, “An Eye for an Eye”

If for no other reason, Gods Tower was notable for demonstrating doom metal’s surprisingly long reach, as Belarus wasn’t exactly a hotspot for the scene. Nonetheless, “An Eye for an Eye” played up the band’s bonafides, delivering a lengthy and dynamic if amateurish treatise on gothic doom.  Perhaps because of their isolated geography, Gods Tower still sounded green even after 8 years of existence and two albums; that said, Lesley Knife howled with conviction, and the rest of the band was clearly enthusiastic about playing metal.  So even if The Turns offered few surprises, tunes like “An Eye for an Eye” remained a striking indication that this style of metal had legs.

It's no less emotional than when I played it as a child.

Belarusian  slavic pagan doom heavy metal

 Free skies – imaginary lies. Imaginary lie - it is when people talk about the events is not what they really were, but how they understand it. One person said that the sky is free; it belongs to everyone, so he was burned at the stake for it. He was imaginary liar, but to understand it, it took centuries to pass. But the sky may belong to only free people, because slaves do not need the sky, slaves are a crowd - it needs bread and circus. They need the auto-da-fe instead of stars. We do not want to once again peopleburns at the stake, we do not want to go back to the Dark Ages. We need freedom and free people. We need to free the sky! Shall I return home alone? Shall I recall what I want? Free skies – imaginary lies Is it my home I return? Is it my life I lived on? Free skies – imaginary lies Shall I fly up to the clouds? Shall I return to the ground? Free skies – imaginary lies Shall I tell them what I've found? Shall I expand up their bounds? Free skies – imaginary lies Liar! They call me Liar! Liar! They call me Liar! Shall I return home alone? Shall I recall what I want? Free skies – imaginary lies Is it my home I return? Is it my life I lived on? Free skies – imaginary lies Liar! They call me Liar! Liar! They call me Liar! Liar! They call me Liar! Liar! They call me Liar!

“Give me wings to learn to fly“

“I know my native mystery My mystery's my fate to fly up My fate to fly up liberty My liberty's my ways in sky Why call me back from Heaven? I am the raven bird of grief I am bird of grief the sorrowbringer Black sorrowbringer misery I am misery the lament singer Why call me back from Heaven? I prayed my Gods to give me wings Give me wings to learn to fly There is the Heaven far away Far away from greed and lies Why call me back from Heaven? There is no evil in the sky In the sky there is no evil Why call me back from Heaven? See raven flies up liberty My liberty is when I'm flying Why call me back from Heaven? I fly” “I Am The Raven” (Gods Tower) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wlYIZmBRYs
