Mystical R Dragon This record kicks ass! Like Slough Feg had a baby with The Sword. A breath of fresh air on the doom landscape! Favorite track: Ambush at Antarox IV.

JD Quenzer Definitely one of my favourite album releases of 2015. It is "Psy-Fi Metal" as These Hands Conspire call it and I agree - it IS out of this world; taking the listener to places beyond Earth's atmosphere with a stellar concept expressed perfectly through astronomical riffs, rocket-booster rumbling drums and bass and superb, classic rock vocals. Favorite track: Praise to the Nova Rider.

Illior, Son of Athion Known as the splendid one Sublime offspring of the divine gods Hither you come back to life In eternal glory Breaking free from your captivity Your name‘s almost forgotten Undreamed of for ages Your songs have been faded Drowned in obliteration How could they forget you? Deep down in the stone In the heart of the mountain Now that the silence is broken You came down from your world The world of the gods Illior, Son of Athion Known as the splendid one Sublime offspring of the divine gods Hither you come back to life In eternal glory Breaking free from your captivity Almighty warrior You destroyer of stars Tell me where your ship sails In far away distance your songs shall resound To shake uncharted worlds Absorb your power from our lifes Consolidate your will In the temple of stone deep down in the earth We await your triumphal return Your songs will echo in the universe O Nova Rider bringer of the light Follow the call into your fate O Nova Rider Conqueror of Stars Wherever you‘ll go Your glowing sword will guide our way back home Set out into the broad expanse of outer space To liberate the universe from grief Your crystal starship will resist all cosmic storms Curves the space to navigate O Nova Rider - Brightest star of all O Nova Rider - Bringer of the light O Nova Rider - Brightest star of all O Nova Rider - Bringer of the light

The middle sun bursts up As his sword pierces through A million of slivers remain They orbit the core A sole formation of crystals Float in the space The former core of the sun His fountain of force Laronis my friend, my brother in arms Follow your old masters call I summon you back into this world Provide me your service again Black cosmos breaks up A crack in the sky And a purple beam of light Empowers the beast Fueled by these ancient powers The starship responds Descending from above And lands on the ground Ilior mylord destroyer of stars I’ll carry you in this crusade My soul has been trapped in wasteland Idur Now I’m released through your will As Ilior consecrates the beast Splinters conflagrate Amalgamate into a shield To screen his home from harm Pleased and satisfied the giant beholds the scene Encouraged by this sight his powers resurrect Out of Laronis’ maw he takes the crown of gods He crowns himself with it to boost his force still more The planet shield shoots flashes down into his cornute crown The planet shield shoots flashes down into his cornute crown He turns back towards the mountain His sword in a firm grip He strikes out with two mighty strokes And quarters the old stone With the god on his back, the beast takes off into space Right thru the planet shield that opens by the giant's will Inside Laronis‘ paunch four stones wait to be aroused Laronis my friend my brother in arms My will shall be your command Our duty will lead us to far away worlds No one will know our names With the god on his back, the beast takes off into space Right thru the planet shield that opens by the giant's will Inside Laronis‘ paunch four stones wait to be aroused

Can you hear the drums through space and time? The sound‘s swelling on A breath of wind grows into a storm To devour it all They seek redemption this far away world A final outcry from a dying race Since he started his quest aeons have passed Unheard in the outer space But here in the distance… Something is moving… Disturbed by a roar That shakes the mountains afar The rocks burst asunder as the earth begins to quake Three suns eclipsed by green smoke ascends to the sky Unknown creatures fly from the force As the earth opens up wide In fear they look up to the mountains Their tops erupt to the sky Orange rays wrap the jungle in light A graceful scene; the time stands still The planet seems to glow from within And vibrates with life And deep down in the mountain's hole A giant builds silhouettes against green smoke And deep down in the mountain's hole A giant builds silhouettes against green smoke Their call for redemption This prayer is heard The drums are now silent The calling is heard The giant awoken Redemption is near With the strength of a black hole He takes a deep breath Emerging from the crater His head towards the suns Forced into this man-like shape For the first time in 1000 years He jabs his sword towards heaven Pierces through the core Of the middle sun He heard their call He came

Dash off to your ships and seek refuge in flight This planet is lost, your defence overmastered Now they‘re coming, raiding, destroying The time has come to wailing, bleeding If you don‘t run away The splendid one himself Will judge your head His severity The trait you have to dread Take off with your ships There is no more time The warriors approach Their chantings swell up quick And now they‘re coming, raiding, destroying The time has come to wailing, bleeding If you don‘t run away The splendid one himself Will judge your head His severity The trait you have to dread You‘re caught up in the atmosphere They’ve got you Your ships will never reach the sky They‘ll never reach the sky Every craft is crashed No single one is left Your poor world lies shattered at your feet No idols or resistance to rebuild They blast them all away All your troops went down No single one is left Your poor world lies shattered at your feet No idols or resistance to rebuild There is no second chance Stand back from your ships and search a place to hide This planet is lost, your defence overmastered Now they‘re coming, raiding, destroying The time has come to wailing, bleeding If you don‘t run away Ilior passes the gates of Sûrr His crystal blade is stained with blood, His bearing fierce and obstinate In his clenched hands, a broken spear Former weapon of Ranasul They payed a high price for victory Such a high price for victory

Pulled back in normal space Laronis grunts The fellowship is held up By an evil force A range of small crafts appear, They head to intercept The giant provokes his batt‘lers To get prepared for a fight With sharpenend arms Their wrath unleashed, They rush ahead, spur on the beast Laronis shouts out his war cry The vengefulness glints in his eye He‘s moving fast, he‘s fighting hard, Breaking the first array The band of gods leave his back, Swarms out to form a line Their crystal blades light up the space, Forged to put you in your place Go in and win! Lead off the fight! Eliminate the enemy! Ilior, the time is come The war will start right here They rule this game No one can make a stand Against the band of gods Go in and win! Lead off the fight! Eliminate the enemy! Ilior, the time is come The war will start right here They rule this game No one can make a stand Against the band of gods They rule this game No one can make a stand Against the band of gods Against the band of gods No one can make a stand Their counter-blow destroys your defense line You can‘t halt their onslaught Their holy assembly of powers Makes them unstoppable Your ambush will lead to your doom You cannot survive Take down your weapons and realize The one and only truth There‘s one true lord Ilior King of gods Renounce! Renounce! Renounce! Your, your, your.. Renounce your false gods.... Your, your, your.. Renounce your false gods....

See the shooting stars up there in the sky The master's tears of grief seem like red rain Above the battlefield of Antarox IV The nova rider is in orbit, overseeing his realm True born is gone High lord of Korhan Worship his name In memory of Ranasul We make this claim Feel the pressing gloom lasting for days The masters vibe of sorrow banned every light Down on the battlefield of Antarox IV His banner men sit tight for orders, death watching the tomb True born is gone High lord of Korhan Worship his name In memory of Ranasul We make this claim Ranasul the bearer of hope Second stone of their mighty four Fallen in the battle of Sûrr Our bond ends here You rendered your vows Your glory credits Everlasting fame We mark and honour Your dying day Ranasul the bearer of spear Youngest lord from a noble house Your sudden death was a shock But your sacrifice won‘t be for nothing Your deeds be forever extolled Your mind will enter the hall of gods The earthly presence you lost But we never forget you, the prodigal son Your glory credits Everlasting fame We mark and honour Your dying day Everlasting... Everlasting.... Ilior kneels before the tomb Raises his sword for a last salute True born is gone High lord of Korhan Worship his name In memory of Ranasul We made this claim

These Hands Conspire Berlin, Germany

Disturbed by a roar that shakes the mountains afar.
The rocks burst asunder as the earth begins to quake.
Three suns eclipsed by green smoke ascents to the sky.
