LYRICS:
To die is to live it
You brought this on yourself
Blood filled blue waters
You hear the roaring sea
To die is believing
You'll see this one yourself
Guns blazing slower
Opponent knows it's here
A latent threat below
Will we see the morning come?
Aim for the head and hold your guns
I'll save the day
And fire
Take us higher
Bring the fire
Heave the long ropes
Fire all guns
Bring this monster
To the depths of the sea
To die is to live it
Recovering beast in sea
Blood filled black waters
You hear the roaring beast
Too high of a captain
Too drunk by power's yeast
Men gazing fearful
Afraid of reckless seas
The tables turned
It comes with all its hunger
It aims to make this sea their grave
Brave men so lost at sea
Brave yet too weak for me
The water moves
It's coming back and strong
Now for its final strike, reload
The creature is on the move
Too far we are from the cove
Aim for the heart, reload your guns
I'll save the day
And fire
Take us higher
Bring the fire
Heave the long ropes
Fire all guns
Bring this monster
To the depths of the sea
Save me!
The rain, it starts
The clouds are cluttering
The night skies falling heavily
The final confrontation
Of this beast, eating worlds
The smell of blood and guns is here
The skies are blackening
Too far we are from our home
Aim for the beast and stand your ground
The reconcile
The last fight of this tale
It starts, it starts with you
Take us higher
Bring the fire
Heave the long ropes
Fire all guns
Bring this monster
To the depths of the sea
No one knows
And no one will
Know this part of the tale
Know this one
My fellow grandchild
There is something, hiding in the sea
They say that no one knows
Eight-armed and vicious
The pain, the price
The maleficent
To live a life scared
Away from waters shadow
I'll tell the tale
Deliverance
Out there on calm wind oceans
In caverns undersea
I smell, I fear
I hear the screaming still
I hear the screaming still
Lamp after lamp it swallows
I hear the screaming still
A sailor's tale of sorrow

Metal isn't dead yet. And these guys are best proof of that.

My instant favorite also OCF brother!

[@ericbogenhagen1153]

I was going to say the same thing. The balance in their songs is just too good! They can take you on a journey in a song. perfectly match the lyrical emotions with the instrumental emotions, just like in rebirth and behold. So glad I found these guys a couple months ago! These guys are absolute genius!

[@Mavvyd96]

I honestly felt that way as well. I didn’t have tears in my eyes but I had literal goosebumps. The 7 minute epic just blew the hell by.

On repeat for the past 32 hours straight and it’s only getting better! This is BEYOND a song! This is PURE MAGIC.

[@MrDrake-ps2yi]

Another 12/10 work from these absolute legends. Discovered these guys shortly after Redfog came out. Thought they couldn't top Nija. The fuckers topped Nija.

[@vventovuori9424]

They are on top of the league right now. Right there next to Metallica, Gojira, Lamb of God, Slipknot etc. Can’t wait for their live shows, metal is in a good hands at the moment and thats fucking great.

[@grimmface12]

If this song was out during my days in RTC (navy boot camp) this would have given the division a serious edge during battle stations. This should be the theme song of any navy around the world. If otter culture just made one reference to the kraken i think i may cream my pants. otter culture, rock the fuck on and ive personally be addicted to the band since my first listen to "north star." Take this to heart, you are something more than just a band and music. You are something the world needs right now because of how fake and boring the current music industry is. Dont change and continue to be what youve all created that is known as otter culture.

YES to ALL of THIS!!! 💯💯💯

[@TheCaner135]

Not a fucking single bad song on their discography. What a consistency. Unbelievable...

[@cerberos76]

I have no idea how these guys did it but they seem to really re-created the heart of metal. Previous albums were shockingly awesome but now with this EP they got to the level they stand on their own. A Sailor's Tale might be best metal song recorded in last 10 years. Thanks guys for bringing this music to us, hope yo see you live some day. Keep up the amazing stuff you do!

[@Mavvyd96]

Although I would personally not say best in a decade but rather one of the best all year, I appreciate your sentiment. These guys will rise as true legends in metal. They’re amazing. Very few bands are held in this regard to me.

At first I was like... okay, that's really good, I love it, that's how to make modern death metal awesome, it's fantastic. When I heard orchestra I was impressed how good that track is, I thought it is done. Then I discovered that there is 2 minutes of the song left... AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. Also... they did it again... the fuckin drop Z or smth haha, they got me again.
