Domain of the Great One (Re​-​Recorded Single)

about

In light of the recent passing of Trevor Strnad (vocalist of the legendary melodic death metal band The Black Dahlia Murder), we have decided to release this re-recorded version of the second track we ever wrote, "Domain of the Great One". We had been holding out on publicly dropping this version of the song for over a month now, as we felt it may be redundant and unnecessary given how we have progressed since we released the original version. However, seeing as DotGO was heavily inspired by The Black Dahlia Murder, we felt it would be appropriate to release it now in Trevor's memory. Without his contributions to the aforementioned band, it is unlikely that DotGO would have turned out the same way, or even been released at all. We will forever be grateful to Trevor for the impact he made on death metal, and we hope his friends and family find peace in knowing how much he meant to countless people around the globe.

(NOTE: Lyrics have been altered slightly to serve as a loose continuation and conclusion to the story told in our concept EP "A Flame on the Bleak Horizon".)

lyrics

Crawling through the streets
We descend into the sprawling chasm
Our senses overwhelmed
We trudged along into the darkness
Catacombs and formations
Surrounded us upon descent
A terrible grotto opened up
And now we're trapped

Consciousness slips away
The being before us now awake
Feels our pain, smells our fear
It could tell that our end was near

Domain of the Great One
The beast above calls our names
Domain of the Great One
Finally driven insane

“Now you mortal fools must heed
And obey all of my commands
Your mistakes in space have brought you here
Until you breathe your last”
Its voice echoes through the cavern
Biting at our ears
A hellish landscape surrounding us
Our fate was all too clear

A hellish screech
The gate was locked
Screams of pain
Lives are lost
A hellish screech
The gate was locked
Screams of pain
Lives are lost

Domain of the Great One
The beast above calls our names
Domain of the Great One
Finally driven insane
Finally driven insane

(Solo)

Crawling from the depths
We find at last a sunlit passage
Our senses overwhelmed
We grasp our way into the light
Catacombs and formations
Surrounded us upon ascent
Grotto gone, escaped at last
Finally free
