I did cover some of this in my previous blog, about a
rewrite of an old song that is thirty odd years old. Upon listening to the demo I really like the riff of the track,
and yes I admit the lyrics did need some fleshing out of the subject, as the
song itself was not saying much.
However looking back at my fourteen-year-old self, I thought I had
written a good song. I clearly had not,
so… a rewrite was the best option, I have taken the spirit of the song and
added more stories. The setting is
Medieval about a castle with dark secrets, which where not properly explored in
the original. The topics used here are
murder and conspiracy, and a queen who waits to go to The Black Castle song
title and the story unfolds. I wanted
to create
Something that appears mysterious and
strange, but the ending and the leaves questions hanging so maybe other songs
may be written. It is away from what I
normally write about but I just liked it and think it may work in a future release.
The other two songs dwell in the realms of
trolls which has been discussed herein, the first accounts another battle
between The trolls of Moorsfest and the men of Midvaard, I like these sort of
songs were battle creeps up here and there, the second song tells of the frozen
lands in the far north beyond The Räasvoarbörg mountains about the most
northerly trolls who live on the frozen lands near the great lake Värll. This part of the ancient lands has not been
mentioned in great detail so it is good to be able to start to include them.
