What do you see through the eyes of the Gods?
The virtue of star winds approaching our land
Is the earth to change, are new times to come?
Oh please I want to know!
I see disease will grow
In crystallised deserts their shrines they will build
The Masters of fire will conquer and rise
In sterilised birds they will sail the skies
What do you see? - I want to know!
Fear I the iron Gods of war?
Fathers, the blood on my hands
It’s my offering my suffering…
It’s the blood of my people, please heed
Faith, have you betrayed me too?
In obscurity and emptiness
You’ve left us to fight angry Gods
People, our cries were not heard
Nor our offerings - our Temples
The time it has now come to fight!
Fathers, to fight is no sin
You guided us through war and life
Now we have found Wisdom to rise
Changes occurring, we’ve lost what was ours
We dreamed on for centuries believed we are alone
Now we are praying in these final hours
And hope it’s a nightmare and soon it ‘ll be gone!
We are not alone…
I walk through the places that my fathers have walked
I feel like never before!
I know I am alive!
The song of the Pan-flutes still sings through the trees
The Gods remember our name*
My people are still alive!

Allow me to copy Pagan Altar's third album title to describe not only III:Pentecost but the whole discography of Wytch Hazel so far: well, yes, it's Magical and Mythical!!! A must-have for the lovers of 70's hard sound revival. BoneWalker

Absolutely in love with the full length album (check it out too!!) "The Conquest..." I decided to get the demo too. A bit unfair that I discovered the newest first, so this is biased in a way, but the demo definitely sets the solid ground for what is to come next. Wish Century a century of success !!! sachavonkarl74

Chevalier is no doubt one of my favorite up and coming acts, playing an off the beaten path brand of raw sounding speed metal. Go back to their first LP here, self recorded. Sure, it doesn't have the same production level as "Destiny Calls", but it's still a great listen in it's own right. Bloodied But Unbowed
