A Hill to Die Upon - Demo 2008 - 1) Season of the Starved Wolf - Video
PUBLISHED:  Oct 07, 2012
DESCRIPTION:
If I had a dollar for every time I wanted to show a friend a cool band, and looked on Youtube to find only crap live videos, I'd have at least... $50.
In all seriousness, we all know the feeling. I had to make another account to remedy this frustrating 10 minutes of widely misspent life.

The nitty gritty fresh and fitty, or something less grindpop-core influenced than that:

1. I upload all genres.
2. I upload all songs from EP's, albums, etc. with the obvious exceptions.
3. I love making lists.
4. I upload the lesser known bands, usually not on Youtube.
5. I also upload usually every band I'm uploading here to my metal/anything music blog, for downloading: http://trvekvltpandas.blogspot.com/

I hope I save you some of that frustrating 10 minutes of wasted productivity... doing whatever it is you people do.

ABOUT THIS BAND:

Meet A Hill to Die Upon, one of the few fine Christian Blackened Death metal acts hailing from the frozen grimness of Eu-- Illinois.
The band is composed of two brothers, Michael on drums, and Adam, on vocals (and now doing bass and guitar).
**This song features Steve Southard of "Ashes of Avarice" on vocals (as stated on a Hill To Die Upon Facebook status).
Some notable past members the band has had are Elisha Mullins, now full time lead guitarist and vocalist for The Burial, and also Ravn (Frosthardr).
They are by far my favorite band of all time. Be sure to check out their 2 full lengths, "Infinite Titanic Immortal", and their newest album "Omens."
(I wrote a mini-review of Omens here: http://trvekvltpandas.blogspot.com/2012/08/dyslexic-pandas-top-10-albums-of-year.html)

Lyrics:

"The strength of the wolf determines the strength of the pack; the strength of the pack determines the strength of the wolf." - Rudyard Kipling

Man's wolfish nature turns upon those closest to him as a survival technique. Some say this is an evolutionary instinct, but sin instinct needs no evolution to breed malice. Steve's lyrics are based upon a dream in which he was a small child in a village stalked by wolves. Such vivid dreamscapes, such animal violence, we truly are a morbid race. Steve's lyrics capture perfectly what we experience human to human.


Another night brings uncertain hunger
And one more moon might satisfy that

My eyes were meant to sift through shadows
With razor teeth I ache and wait for the hunt
My eyes were meant to sift through shadows
The taste of blood sits well on the tip of my tongue

Who's the unlucky mortal whom fate has forgotten?
Around this town, my dear, the hunt is the law
And now you answer to my jaw
What mindless cattle left their behind to come find mine?
For years we've fed by the moon,
Haunting, awaiting the nightfall
We'll allow you days but after dark we claim these woods
Beware the moon!

And I'll lead these wolves, straight through the fire
Right through the belly of hell
And I'll lead these wolves, straight through the fire
Right through the belly of hell itself

Straight through the fire, straight through the belly of hell, straight through the fire

And I'll lead these wolves, straight through the fire
Right through the belly of hell
And I'll lead these wolves, straight through the fire
Right through the belly of hell itself

We are the wolves
We are the hunger
But beware the moon, we are the night

We are the wolves
We are the hunger
But beware the moon, the hunt is law
