Vredehammer’s combination of aggressive guitars and masterful songwriting has already rewarded the band with a loyal fanbase around the world. On March 6, 2020 they will finally release their third full-length "Viperous", following a highly acclaimed catalogue including a Norwegian Grammy nomination.
First single out from the new album is "Aggressor"!
""Aggressor" is the sequal to "Ursus" which was on our 2016 release Violator. It has the same kind of headbanging-vibe and energy to it as its forefather, but in my opinion the riffs are even stronger in this song." -Per Valla (Guitar, Keyboards, Bass, Vocals, Songwriter)
Lyrics "Aggressor":
His gaze set toward the skies
a shadow of forgotten tales
The ice of ages had enchained him, kept away
A thousand winters buried deep benath the ground
not yet released from fate, a promise held him trapped in dorment state.
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of the stone
Arise, lightning pierces
flesh from high above
Again the sleeper awakens, a giant dwells below.
A different world another time before his eyes
A weak, decrepit place, beset in foul decay
Dark priests now called him, they chanted words
of ancient powers: BEGIN
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of..
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, hail superior
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, wielder of the thunderous skies
As the stories once foretold,
When the hooded priests are gathered.
Underneath the moonlit sky,
By the dancing firelight
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, fearless emperor
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of..
Aggressor, the oppressor, commander, hail superior
vanquisher, subjugator, tormentor, walker of the stone.
