    Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Released in August 2007 in Australia / New Zealand by Modern Invasion and in Japan by Soundholic.

    This is the first true band recording of LORD since the demise of Dungeon in 2005. A radical departure from the introspective solo album feel of "A Personal Journey", this album carries on and expands upon the aggressive and progressive style of Dungeon's final album "The Final Chapter".

    This is the Australian release featuring the bonus track 'Shattered' (Pantera cover).

about

The album’s conclusion and the final part of the story surrounding Dungeon’s transition into LORD. This song was very much inspired by the symbolism of the album cover which features the angel/demon rising from the flames, and is also very symbolic of LORD’s ascendence. If you listen carefully to the final seconds, you will hear a nod in the direction of the first LORD solo album “A Personal Journey” as it reprises the outro melody of “Last Rites”. LORD now “sheds the skin of yesterday” as the “legacy begins again today” – the history is important, but the future is there for the taking and with this album the journey begins anew.

lyrics

Cast to my death in flames
But I will never die
Past life is burned away
Stronger man arise

I am shadow, I am light
I’m your world to be
I am angel, I’m your hell
I am me

Oh, so it seems like this world always changes
But I know what’s coming for me
I see with open eyes
How things should be

CHORUS:
Shed the skin of yesterday
My legacy begins again today
Live the dream that drives me on
My destiny, tomorrow will belong to me

I leave the blackness, walk into the shining light
Reach out for my dreams…

SOLOs: LT

Ascend from my trial by fire
Branded and torn
I wear my symbol proudly
Carved into my flesh
I walk the world
A free man

SOLOs: LT

My path now set in stone
As written so shall be
Rise up to claim the throne
Fulfill my destiny

I am angel, I am sin
I’m your Lord’s decree
I am devil, I am light
I am me

Oh, so it seems like this world always changes
But I know what’s coming for me
I see with open eyes
How things should be

REPEAT CHORUS x2
