  • Song taken from the NWOBHM masterpiece LP of Omega, called "The Prophet" (1985, Rock Machine). This marvelous epic track first appeared in the 1983 "Alpha" demo of the band from London. They were previously known as Apocalypse, with the classic and highly sought after "Stormchild" single.
    Line-up:
    Nick Brent: vocals & guitar
    Steve Grainger: lead guitar, keyboards & vocals
    Graham Roberts: drums
    Dave Robertson: bass guitar & vocals
    Lyrics:
    The boy has grown up
    The child has died
    The scales have fallen
    from his eyes
    He sees right through
    your tangled lies
    A blindman cries out
    "I see the light"
    The hand of friendship
    fades in the night
    The web of darkness
    obscures all sight
    Hate renews its
    onward flight
    A blindman cries out
    "I see the light"

      Reminds me a little of Faith No More and Type O Negative. This album needs to be added to Spotify.

    Welcome to the underground NWOBHM cemetery.
    The whole song is great but especially the solo is one of the best I have ever heard as a veteran metalhead with 11 year experience.

    Damn...Omega approaches Queen/Pink Floyd levels of complexity and intricacy in this song....a really awesome song. Kinda reminds me of Deep Purple's Child in Time for some reason...maybe it's just me
