Behold a lone warrior
From a distant land
He approaches the fissure
And hears the Monumental's demand
A demonstration of soul power
Slay every last demon
Claim all their souls
Utilize their sovereignless power
To strengthen yourself against foes
A demonstration of soul power
At the stark iron gates
Of the palace
Soul-starved madmen
Attempt to push him back
He slaughters every last one
And a demonic presence
Lurks beyond the black
The Phalanx
A pile of writhing evil
Sludge surrounding a shining mass
Impenetrable shields surrounding
How could anyone ever get past?
The Slayer of Demons
Calls on the power of fire
The beasts succumb to the flames
And perish in ire
Soul of lead obtained
Long Bow Oolan become abomination
The faithful archer of Allant
Transformed beyond recognition
A rush of power beyond human comprehension
Brought out by the immortal candle maiden
A demonstration of soul power

The Ruined Path

As the slayer of demons carves his way inside the palace gates
A deafening growl approaches
The bridge encased in flame
Mighty red dragon of hell
Has overtaken the lord's path
He seeks to destroy
All who dare to trespass
Upon
The Ruined Path
The bridge leads onward, to a massive wall
Knights of Boletaria and their Archers
Stand tall
A battle rages, Slayer of Demons forging ahead
Into the dark of the corridor
His mind is filled with dread
A curtain of Colorless Fog
Engulfs all that surrounds him
A vision of true terror
The Knight of the Tower

An everlasting hero, locked away in the holy mausoleum
Holds the mythical power of the blade to banish demons
This mighty weapon, Demonbrandt its name
May be wielded to rid the world of its bane
Clashing Blades of the Northern Lands
There is another, more sinister sword
Soulbrandt, channeling the evil of the horde
King Allant brandishes this monstrous blade
For the end of all life, his decision has been made
Battle old king Doran for the chance to prove your worth
At the eternal Altar, the blade to save the earth
If you choose the path of evil, allant awaits below
Inherit humanity's demise as you deal the final blow

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.
