Merci - Pillars of Hercules
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- This song was inspired by Homer's Odyssey, or to be more exact, what he didn't tell us in the epic poem: how did Odysseus die? There are several theories about it, but my favorite one is when he sails beyond the Pillars of Hercules (which is forbidden to do) and the gods kill him for his recklessness. I wanted to express what Odysseus could feel when he embarked on the dangerous journey and how he reflected on himself when he got into the deadly storm. Was his stubbornness conscious or a forced wanderlust?
I made this song with two amazing musicians, who have been inspiring me for almost my entire life: Attila Voros and Marton Veress. I am very thankful for them and it was such an honor to work with them!

Pillars of Hercules - lyrics:
I hear the ocean calling,
Ravishing siren lullaby,
Luring back to trouble.
What if I go? And what if I don't?
I will not go further
Than the end of the world.
Who needs devine assent?
I fight all the monsters.
Tarnished serenity,
You know that I can't sit still.
Don't care bout the consequences,
I'm still me, and you can't change it.
I will not go further
Than the end of the world.
Empyrean in the unknown,
Lost lands and sacred freedom.
Maybe this time,
I don't need no prophecies,
I sail without fear,
Without destinations.
Maybe somewhere
I'll get my old self back.
The better, the treasured,
The one who'd been forgotten.
Years of dire ramble,
Becoming a true nobody.
Racing with destiny.
What if we go?
And what if we don't?
I will not go further
Than the end of the world
Before my devastation,
Before my retribution.
Maybe this time,
I don't need no prophecies,
I sail without fear,
Without destinations
Maybe somewhere
I'll get my old self back.
The better, the treasured,
The one who'd been forgotten.
This forced wanderlust,
Don't kill me, please forgive me.
I'm craving, I'm raving,
I had lost all my faith.
Hunger was way too strong
I strained at the leash.
Don't tell me that I'm fallen,
I won't make more mistakes.
If I have to die, then
Please hear my prayer.
I only wish for some peace
For my restless soul.
Absolutely phenomenal track Merci. My neck is sore. Those riffs are merciless.... (see what I did there?) ;)

I had no idea you could do that type of voice as well.
Making a song based on a work of literature is one of the aspects that I really liked.
Keep shredding, our beloved metal queen.
Hi Merci, what a great song! You are very talented, those vocals are so wicked, didn’t know you could scream like that! Again you prove to us that your riffs are sick & that you can definitely shred! So glad I found this channel! 🎤🎸🔥🔥🔥
Wow.... Incredible.
wúúú, de állat a borító!
Jó kis dal. Egész jó, technikás riffekkel, groove-okkal. Modern metal, de van benne a "tanulás a régi mesterektől" . Arch Enemy az amire leginkább emlékeztet, de van benne egy kis In Flames is. Minden tiszteletem a tiéd! 🙂😉🌹🌹🌹🌹
ok i didn't expected that kind song , i should subscribe now XD
Woow, this is one of the best songs I've heard this year, amazing!
Állam a padlón, ez nagyon ütős lett :o
Gratulálok az egész csapatnak!

Hi sweety,
I like your rebel spirit :)
Odyssey is synonym to ones in searching for homeland. Gods will not punish those, but encourage. He didn't die. Cuz he found the sacred island. He just left. That's my interpretation.
Edit:
Without a fight, can't evolve your awareness. That's the law of Evolution. Hope the next time you will make other song but in this way, something like... grand, pompous.
We all deserve it.
