There’s two ways to interpret the POV of this song. The first is with this video which was a later addition. A chaos space marine about to join Abaddon’s Black Legion has visions of what Khorne offers. The second is the POV of Khârn which was what inspired the song’s lyrics. I hadn’t planned to write a Khorne song but it just came to me in a wave of inspiration. I tried to mix lyrics that were slightly comical and serious, portraying someone in the depths of the butcher’s nails but also looking back at the their legion’s history.
Musically I went for thrash metal in the style of Slayer, Pantera, Metallica etc but also heavily influenced by DOOM(the solo draws from E4M1 and outro E3M3). The music is meant to portray the World Eaters charging into battle. If you’ve ever seen the film “Gangs of New York” I was imaging Daniel Day-Lewis as Kharn charging the frontlines.
Enjoy!! Another Chaos Legion song is next 🤘🏻
This honestly cam at the perfect time since I'm finally starting to paint my Angron.
Magical! Amazing! As someone who played the original DOOM games when I was young, listened to those bands, and has both read and seen the gangs of new york - Simply, yes! You nailed all those aspects! You do not cease to amaze.
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD, SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE, MILK FOR THE KHORN FLAKES!!!
😂
And whatever Lotara Sorintz wants.
Don't forget the Khornedogs damnit!
MILK FOR THE KHORN FLAKES, SPOONS FOR THE BOWL THRONE!!
this shouldnt have made me laugh but it did.
“We are not the hounds the corpse lord hath made”
Nice reference to the pre-Angron 12th Legion!
I was wondering who would be the first to comment on that. I like to include in a pre-primarch reference when I can.
If anyone is wondering what the others are:
"Men of Iron who tread the storm" Storm Walkers - Iron Hands
"Unbroken, The blades of dusk" Dusk Raiders - Death Guard
"Firstborn" The First - Dark Angels
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE
Krieg: I see your 1 Khornate Warband and raise 5 regiments.
I see your 5 regiments and raise you one Death Guard Vectorium. Show you some real attrition.
Calmest World Eaters
They are just warming up
The heavy and brutal riffs, the bloodcurdling vocals, truly an all encompassing song when it comes to Khorne. I saw the beautiful interpratations that Lorcan has made, as always an artist who envisions the song as a painting and a theatrical play, not just music! Yet, I wish to add once again my own visual: The exalted path of the berzerker, who may have began as a simple marine, who refuses to succumb to his wounds under a corpse emperor, so he took the bribe of a different master - Khorne, the blood god. The song narrates his ascension through battles and campaigns, from empty promises and a sacrament of what must be done, to the ever repeating cry of his task, "pile their skulls to mountainous heights", and the final epitomy of his deeds, his magnum opus, as he goes from a vain follower, to the chosen speaking the sacrament himself.
And now for a lighter addition to the above: The first time listening was "Oh, this is good!", the 888th is headbanging and yelling "PILE THEIR SKULLS TO MOUNTAINOUS HEIGHTS!"
I really like your own visual. It's a really good interpretation of the lyrics and story. Interesting to hear my own song from a new perspective now.
Hell yeah!!!
This came out with perfect timing, I just finsihed making a world eaters shield for my senior prank lol
What’s the prank?
@@sebastianls412 The people who'll graduate go around the school and kidnap friends or other ppl from class, rearrange furniture that kind of stuff and I built a shield to carry around with me just for fun
Unapologetic like a Powerfist to the face. Friggen awesome 🤘🤘🤘
Ha I’m using this is a quote 🤘🏻
I won't lie, for a moment I thought it was going to be almost 4 minutes of "Blood for the blood god!" Though only now am I realizing there's 8 of them, Khorne would be mildly less angry at this song. Never happy is the lord of skulls.
What’s funny is that is exactly how the song started. I thought how a song about Khorne would just be Legionnaires shouting “Blood for the Blood God” until Kharn got pissed and lectured them about words not appeasing Khorne before charging into battle.
@@LorcanWard I havent fully digested all of your songs yet. but would you do one for Garviel Loken? (if you havent already)
@@deityINSTINCT No yet, I still have to do a Lunar Wolves/Sons of Horus song. Originally my Alpha Legion song "I Cannot Say" started as a lodge song with some references to Loken.
My lort, that's a tasty chorus...
Also HOOT is a huge pick for the outro.
One of my personal favs with how it suddenly slows down from the verse but the heavy guitars make sure it has a punch. Some influence from the Bloodquest comic and a reference to their old legion pre-Angron too.
@@LorcanWard Exactly! the first thing it brought to mind was a song called "Sinä et ole yhtään mitään" from Sotajumala. Was honestly kind of lukewarm to the song until the first pile the skulls to mountainous heights hit, but this is definitely right up there with Sojourn and Heretek for me now.
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE LET THE GALAXY BURN
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE! WRATH FOR KHORNE!!
This is a real headbanger
As soon as I opened it up and it instantly started, I knew I was gonna love this song.
"Get... up!" Khârn upon learning of the new Lorcan Ward banger
This is so peak
I found my new ringtone 🔥🔥🔥
I knew I recognized the vocals the aether realm parentheses sold me. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! Tarot remains my favorite album.
Vincent is an amazing vocalist. So happy to have him a part of this project. Tarot is an incredible album 🤘🏻
Dude this was badass. Always thought of Warhammer 40K being great for a metal lyrics premise. 🤘 Grim dark!
Thanks! Its such a metal setting. It’s an endless well to draw song ideas from. I’ve been having a blast and barely scratching the surface with the amount of factions and characters.
Fucking sick! I love it. Groove and movement. The part from 2:35 is awesome
I love that part, I was going to write a second solo faster and more shreddy but those riffs won.
LET THE GALAXY BURN!
Yes brother
@@samfire3067 greetings fellow Guardsman! O7
I've imagined World Eaters' song as more shouting and raging, yet I love your gloomy and menacing interpretation of them!
Screaming and chainswords might not be the most listenable song so I settled for the second option thrash metal 🤘🏻
Of course this comes out as soon as I’ve been obsessed with the world eaters for the past month. Thanks Lorcan Ward.
This is proper early 2000s metal. I prefer your metal core stuff but this works great for current 40k world eaters. Kharn vs rebus song on the second album metalcore style "get up". Well done though. Will share.
Thanks! It was fun to write in a style I don’t usually do. Future options also for a metalcore song about Angron.
Gotta say I'm enjoying the riffs and guitar tones in this one a lot. Reminds me of the German death metal band "Debauchery", especially with the vocals. Solid work!
Thanks! I’m really happy how the mix came out on this one, especially with how the guitar tones worked. I like Debauchery 🤘🏻
One day ill get my loyal world eater's
"The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does. That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."
I'm speachless... To say that it's awesome is simply not enough...
Did Khorne himself possess you to create such masterpiece ?
God damn.
The butcher's nails inspired it
@@LorcanWard If you have some spare lying around... I'll gladly take some of that burden on my shoulders... ;)
YES, I've been wanting to hear what the World Eaters would get from you
Finally, someone gets Warhammer metal right.
Thanks!
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!
YES FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING
A Banger from the Banger God, Lorcan Ward? Say it ain't so
Blood for the blood God! For the glory of Khorn!
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
‘Our brothers fell to such pitiful lies,
Deluded dreams of decay and pride,
We were made for just one thing.
Sons of Slaughter: Kill Everything!”
Perfectly encapsulates Kharn’s philosophy surrounding why the Emperor created the Astartes and what they were made for: a weapon that would not tire, would not balk at any massacre or casualties, and would never, *ever* stop.
The deadliness of the Astartes isn’t due to their technology, their equipment, or even their training or strategy, but simply due to the fact that they can endure and keep fighting longer than anything else.
That’s why entire worlds full of trillions of people armed with technological wonders and peerless discipline fall to a few thousand blood-crazed savages…
Great to see this lyric passage hit home. He takes a jibe at the Death Guard and Emperor's Children but the final two lines are addressed to every Astartes Legion.
at this point just assume that a world eaters armour original colour is blank metal and it stays hot rod red by constantly spilling fresh blood
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD. Musica incrível
One of your best, imo
I'm immensely impressed. You've fit the description of Khorne's embodiment to a tea perfectly. this song also is awesome, Although I guess Khorne being the easiest Chaos God to make a tribute song because everyone knows what he is about would be and his demons and legion that unconditionally obeys without any contradiction would be something that any UA-camr with similar calibre can do. But still you beat them to the punch
Originally I wasn’t going to make a song since as you said Khorne is one of the easier ones, that’s when I got the idea to have Kharn interrupt and sing his song. Fun to channel the World Eater’s energy and their many battle cries.
@@LorcanWard Well then, that elevates my evaluation. Also is there one planned for Angron?
Idk what to call it, the way the guitars (? Bass? Idk) sound during the "pile the skulls to mountainous heights" is where it's at. Some impending doom type shit right there. Now im curious what chaos knights will sound like 😈
It doesn't really have a name, you could classify it as groove/thrash metal but it's more of a compositional technique with the vocals following the music and the accompaniment having staccato notes. A Chaos Knight song? I'll have to think about that.
@LorcanWard Yeah I love the chaos knights. Something about big mechs is just dope
Witness me Gorum!
It is the first of your songs that I actually like. Nice
Glad to hear it ha. I'm curious what your favourite bands are?
Epic 🤘
Everytime I get a notification that you uploaded I get extra excited
That’s what I like to hear 🤘🏻
Ok this one is badass really good 👍
Would love to see a word bearers inspired song!
I've got a few ideas for Word Bearers songs. There is a lot to work with since there is Erebus, Lorgar, The Gal Vorbak, even the Word Bearer legion themselves.
@@LorcanWard Awesome can't wait to hear it! The destruction of Monarchia, Lorgar's Crisis of faith and seeking out of other gods that WILL reward his piety are all probably great story beats to key off of.
You are amazing dude, can't wait for more.
If you can can you make more power metal style?
Thanks! I’ve got a lot more power metal songs planned.
@@LorcanWard can't wait man, keep up the great work
This one was really tasty
THIS SONG IS F%#&)*! BRUTAL ! *ANGRY RAGE SCREAM*
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR!!!
man u guys need to make a tition or a knight song
I have some Mechanicus songs in the works.
Huh. You know guys, I think they want blood for the blood god.
Would Night lords be Death Metal or Black Metal, that's the real question
I would say Blackened Technical Death Metal
What do you think about a collaboration with Grimwind, like cover or smth?
I’m not familiar with Grimwind, I’ll check out his/their music
some of the words are more like the beat of drums, but its still an impressive music video.
Damn is your voice ok?
Day 10 of asking for custodies song
That intro man, f**** love it
