The Sword - Lawless Lands [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

The second part of the a trilogy of videos from The Sword's new album Warp Riders. Directed by Artificial Army.

[@jackhammer893]

If this album came out in 1973 it would have gone double platinum.

[@benjaminwarpeha9256]

Wouldda had a Frank Frazetta album cover with a space valkyrie and polar bear in a diving helmet

[@alexcoleman7105]

Truer words have never been spoken

[@atwajesper9434]

Now that you mention it, I don't even know if they still give these Awards. Digitalization of Music backfired the industry. I guess Lars Ulrich was kind of right after all.

[@adrianmarquez8345]

jackhammer893 heck no! More!

[@nightmarishendeavors]

It would have gone triple uranium.

[@nicodemustaylor4480]

Came for the music, stayed for the spaceships and the mustache

[@themictator]

It's BOB, dammit!

[@nolanmalcolm4279]

WEEEEEEEOOOOOOOO "onwards rides the archer , lost in lawless lands"

[@buzzbear822]

An the shreddin!

[@dlm9090]

Don't forget the katanas

[@krisanderson7570]

The most underappreciated band ever.

[@bradbynum7304]

Agreed, but the last album or two were missteps. The Sword is still an All-Time band for me.

[@fanboy50]

That outro solo never fails to give me goosebumps.

[@MrGreenHatDude]

I would destroy my speakers and my ears just to hear this song at the highest possible volume. I want the vibrations to fracture me into a million tiny pieces so that I can ride the wavelengths of this song for the rest of time.

[@deathadder92wotb57]

Every single person I've showed this song to, is now a huge fan of the band. This is just what new age music needs!

[@brianlinville439]

this is better than 95% of any bands out there!!

[@paulawagner3455]

Brian Linville wow!!! I just found a BRAND NEW BAND! I LOVE THIS!! 💀

[@Hashbeast]

And freaking AMAZING live, they played just about every song they have made.

[@censorbot6667]

93%

[@GRILLBUOY101]

good one.its like red velvet doughnuts wrapped with blacklight chocolate

[@jervonics2112]

The Gods of Thunder have smiled on us. The Sword is everything lovers of pure Heavy Metal have been waiting for since 1979.... Incredible song writing with masterful production, that fat analog 70's jam. Thank you for putting out the ONLY music worth listening to these days....

[@Annexishead]

I love the guitar player/singer rocking a Zappa look. "Don't eat the yellow snow."

[@bloo9699]

Yonder rides the Archer Lost in lawless lands Onward rides the Archer Alone in lawless lands Some strange power beckons From beneath the ancient sands No woman will have him No man calls him friend No woman will have him No man calls him friend Exiled and outlawed By his only kin Through twilit skies he rides Searching the darkened side of the world Into the night Never knowing he has been lead astray Through lawless lands he flies Across the burning face of the world Under the suns His life begins to slip away A shining angel descends Down from the sky Her coming was foretold

[@geniusiknowit]

No woman will have him. No man calls him Fred.

[@pohjolanukko1652]

:D

[@thewilbatron]

now i can't unhear this lmao

[@nathanbaca5131]

He prefers Freddy casually. Or Frederick in business type situations.

[@badbillw]

Oh no man. Lmao

[@andyskiles9542]

🤣 Freahd!

[@tywa706]

its so nice to listen to a band without any bad songs.....no really all of their songs kick ass

[@nolanmalcolm4279]

I literally do not know how there at "67 dislikes" of this song , The Sword are badasses and will continue to be!! SKÅL

[@iluvdavegrohl]

Pure rock-n-roll. No gimmicks. Just great music.

[@phil562]

Why am I always a decade late for this stuff. Just awesome.

[@JohnDoe-qt7cr]

I feel ya, brother. Found these guys like six months ago, and its my favorite band not. We could have been listening to this for a long time. However, that just means there is more incredible stuff we have yet to find. We just gotta keep looking.

[@MichaelJohnsenOslo]

Deserves so many more views.

[@kryptonian5539]

My fav tune by them. Them choruses still give me chills 12 years later. Lol and the random ninja swords lol. Kills me

[@grindstone4910]

Totally misheard the opening lyric as "Yondu is the Archer" It's actually almost fitting to the song...

[@Mojopin9]

When music makes you feel like you're whaling a bong in the back seat of a vintage Camaro, well then that music deserves it's praise. The Sword is like a delicious cake served in a box made of black-light posters. Nobody eats a cake that good every day. But when they do, they know it's something special as fuck.

[@wadeguidry6675]

Damn! The subtle Heavy Metal references in the musical passages are too cool. The videos cool too. And I thought Frank Zappa was dead, he sings geat!

[@08metropolitano]

U know when u hear something which is different and unique. Xplosive stuff by these guys. Just stumbled upon them a couple of hours ago. And I am still here

[@burningbeard9478]

metropolitano dinamo .....this song is on WARP RIDERS and it's chock full of killer riffs, solos and it's one hell of a concept album....cheers

[@jollycobra]

This is such a good song. Rock on dudes!

[@konstantindellas5318]

I just love The Sword. Pure love.

[@ForeverYoungKickboxer]

Just did bong rips on my deck, working on my gamma world campaign. This was such a kick ass find!!!

[@kerrybrown7398]

I really dig their sound.

[@blsfan1973]

This whole trio of video tres brujas.... lawless lands....night city has a very catchy riff

[@Hashbeast]

Best album in my opinion. Awesome band!

[@noworldforeric]

imagine this, but live. big yes.

[@whitneycrow9075]

These dudes always deliver some amazing music I love these dudes

[@Spitllamaspit]

by far one of their best songs

[@FlashPac17]

Love this song. Discovered The Sword in 2010. Been hooked on them ever since.

[@dancingbear614]

End of this month I will be seeing them for the fifth time. Cannot wait!

[@buckycore]

I love this classic rock vibe almost more than their doom sound. It takes more balls to play with less overdrive and standard tuning like the old days

[@francoforte-67]

Absofuckinlutely! 💪

[@ldoubleg2006]

I like it has that 70-80s vibe along with modern work... Rock!!!

[@grindstone4910]

I don't even smoke pot but The Sword gets me high

[@Hashbeast]

Imagine them together! Sublime tunes dude.

[@grindstone4910]

@@Hashbeast Believe me, I have a playlist waiting for federal legalization.

[@Hashbeast]

@@grindstone4910 Come on down to Colorado!!

[@grindstone4910]

@@Hashbeast I live in Oklahoma, believe me we're good on that. Again, I need federal decriminalization. As a gun owner and a federal employee.

[@m2pmd70]

To paraphrase SoaD, "The weed makes me feel like I'm on this song." :)

[@brianvosburgh1720]

Pandora is a hell of a thing.... 57 years old and up comes this tune. Remember when we had to listen to the radio to find something new??? If it didn't get airtime you probably never heard it then years later here we are. Good stuff and my mission is now clear. 👍🇺🇲

[@invin7215]

Every part of this song is incredible; I can't get enough of it.

[@Fattorso]

I,m 53 yrs old I,ve been buying and listening for 40 yrs The Sword was worth waiting for.

[@crispin323]

frontman looks like Frank Zappa :) love this song, yes they make good music in present age , just gotta dig .

[@P1i1c1h1u]

fuck i love this album

[@Nebulung]

I listened to it for about four years straight. That's the mark of a good album.

[@novastyx8765]

more to it then meets the ear. i play the sword on a daily basis. i love the old stories! i love the sword. more guys, more!

[@kablewire]

When the dungeon master rolls perfect stats for metal, you get this video.

[@deathlife666]

this band is so awesome. Long live Heavy Metal. Long live the Sword

[@cocodrilo1313]

Great sound... Love it... Thanks!!

[@SK8ZION]

I love how they use the Pink Ranger in all of their videos.

[@standish92k]

Dudes fast roping out of a spaceship at the end. 10/10, fantastic fucking idea. The Sword is top notch.

[@ZootCat]

Still love this song after almost 3 years. It has the feeling!

[@MindlessTurmoil]

God dammit... these videos, man. I love the absolute hell out of the music, and now I love the absolute hell out of the music videos.

[@nathanbaca5131]

My all time favorite The Sword track right here.

[@LockDOTspot]

HEAVY Billy Gibbons vibes up in here!

[@billybonewhacker]

Cheese pure cheese, and so fucking heavy! Goddamn it these guys are awesome

[@kornelious1]

These guys are bad ass... Love the vintage sound...

[@sayrerowan734]

I could just put all their albums on an endless loop and be in music nirvana. Hope we haven't seen the last of them and that this 'hiatus' is only temporary.

[@luciangerard3025]

this song gives me chills!

[@pimpdaddyscooby]

They sound to me like a new cool version of Corrosion of Conformity only with comic book lyrics. It's refreshing and the grooves are tight. Rock on!

[@colinmcfarland3515]

I don't get how JD's voice is this great

[@keeganharricharan5561]

I can't wait to see these guys AGAIN in Orlando!! Seriously great stuff. This is what metal was supposed to be a violent symphony.

[@miguelcoli6028]

The Sword...Excellent band! but c'mon, why only 350k views?? I can see why the wolrd we have is what it is now..

[@authenticalaskan76]

[@soniakeller5522]

great!!..best stoned heavy rock

[@SmilingCows-dq9zd]

Great band totally underrated

[@Bernie0481USMC]

Love The 70s/80s comments. This is the band your friends older brother played, his badass hot rod, sexy as fux girlfriend with her halter top and daisy dukes, Marlboro Reds and Whiskey for the night and the dank odor of weed drifting from the car. The Sword is blasting from the 8 track or cassette player and life is good.

[@3Dtrauma]

it is crime not to buy original CD from these guys. this type of music need support asap!

[@applecrow8]

This might be the only music video that feels like it was made for the RPG Traveller.

[@72Oswald]

wow. has a sabbathy sound to it. Awesome. I love this band already.

[@adrianstemp9871]

Hmmmm and now they've called it quits...but no cries of 'its not fair' from them...I suppose they got to follow a passion and produce a body of work they can be proud of...having only just discovered them I'm gutted I can't see them live

[@666stevil]

the witch in this video is what I picture when I hear seriously mysterious fucking beautiful

[@BeinRad]

God damn I need another set of hands so I can give this track four thumbs up. Thank whatever power is responsible for ensuring music didn't die in our generation.

[@TheBrofessor]

Man, this video kicks ass. It's got spaceships, dnd-looking wizard babes, and goofy white dudes swinging around samurai swords. No idea what's happening, though...

[@chrisstewart1735]

Watch the original heavy metal movie there son. You'll understand in full

[@frankdeleon4209]

Oh my god song sooooo gooood deeelishish!

[@twistedsevenfold]

This is one of the best songs by the sword and James Gunn if you’re listening this should be in Peacemaker. Fits perfect.

[@DrDemon6661]

Goddamn! Keep getting better everytime I hear it!... Bringing my daughter to see them in the Lou on Mon. 13th... Slowly changing her musical tastes from ICP to this, AND I CAN'T BE MORE THRILLED!!!! Now to keep her out of my music collection! 8P

[@Scyber_Official]

such an awesome band. no need to say anything else.

[@Agent40oz]

THIS BAND IS SO AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CrawfordWray]

a great bar band - keep going guys !!!!.

[@jervonics2112]

THANK THE GODS OF ROCK, that in this modern day of mass produced CRAP, a band like this has arisen from the depths of Oblivion to lay waste to ALL POSERS!!! These guys have got that 70's HEAVY METAL sound down cold. There is hope for Rock N Roll and its name is THE SWORD =I===>

[@Citizen_J]

I agree!

[@bradleyleacock3381]

This band !!! Neeeiiiiice

[@wretchedslippage3255]
