When I saw VOLTURE live my face was melted clean off! This album is a classic for Old school metal heads alike! Hoping for a new VOLTURE release in the near future. Horns WAY the F@&K UP! I bought the CD and a tShirt right away at the show... Finally I will have the vinyl and a NEW t shirt cause I wore out the old one. YES! ❤️ VOLTURE Metal

MindOverFour If Iron Maiden had stuck to the traditional metal/punk fury of their first three albums (and not started writing self-indulgent epics about British history), then they might sound like Volture does here. It is also not campy or silly. The definition of true metal. Favorite track: Brethren of the Coast.

Garian “Wildman” Perry Fantastic album! Makes me want to drive a million miles an hour into a black hole, into the 4th dimension (of METAL). \m/ Favorite track: Brethren of the Coast.

On the Edge 04:56
ON THE EDGE Hit the sirens Spreading panic and fear We're under attack The enemy is here All warriors to the armory Locked and loaded And armed to the teeth Do we run or do we hide? The time is now stand and fight Send reinforcements, can they get there in time If we're left alone can we hold line? Surrounded Backs against the wall Like a cornered tiger We're gonna fight before we fall Now I feel the power of life Driving me forward to the final fight Can’t you see that we are out of time Moving one step closer to the line Only one direction we can go Take the fight to them and let em know… On the Edge! Feel our power as we seize the night Victory is within our sights Our foes die when we are on the edge Holding faster on the edge! Raging onward We retake the halls Taking back what's ours Send them over the walls Our resistance grows stronger by the death Of everyone that we lay to rest No surrender no return They started the kill But the tides have turned We reign triumphant The struggle overcome The traitors failed And the Volture has won Feel our power as we seize the night Victory is within our sights Our foes die when we are on the edge Holding faster on the edge! Feel our power as we seize the night Victory is within our sights Our foes die when we are on the edge Volture's stronger on the edge! Feel our power as we seize the night Victory is within our sights Our foes die when we are on the edge Holding faster on the edge!

RIDE THE NITE Sitting alone after a hard days toil Living in the way of the world Gotta get out and be free from it all Follow the midnight sun Kick start the bike and we can go for a ride Running out of light tonight and all we have is time Speed on our side when the path's open wide Hammer down the pipes on the road left behind We ride the night Roaming the streets till the dawn Nothing in our sight Fueled by desire to go No turning back Heading to the great unknown Our bags are packed Continue the journey we know We chase the night until the dawn breaks up ahead The fire burns inside it drives us to the edge And all I see turns into dust beneath my wheels The motor runs and the road is all I feel Ride the Nite Hitting the rails as I barrel on through Doesn't matter where I go Riding the wind and chasing the moon Leaving all my troubles at home Cruising town I gotta find my girl Heading for the open road Living the dream in my own world Loosen up the heavy load We chase the night until the dawn breaks up ahead The fire burns inside it drives us to the edge And all I see turns into dust beneath my wheels The motor runs and the road is all I feel Ride the Nite

DESERT PURSUIT The age of the wire Has come to an end The dawning of a new empire Is starting to begin   On the hunt for gasoline Tanks are running low Join the legion to succeed Sever ties, you’ll die alone   Face the fight as I roam   Desert Pursuit Open roads that must be ruled Desert Pursuit Own the wasteland, seize the fuel   Savage nomads spotted me Cruising desert sands That's when the chase began Across these spoiled lands My motor's smoking Blackens out the sky Looking in the rear view mirror Running out of time Face the fight as I roam I'm pushing to the red Amidst a cloud of dust Whitefire energy Offensive strike we must Desert Pursuit Open roads that must be ruled Desert Pursuit Own the wasteland, seize the fuel Marauding instinct That makes me spin the wheel My tires grip the road Release a piercing squeal Eyes centered on their hood And kick in overdrive The margin closes fast Sense fear in their eyes Face the fight as I roam...

BRETHREN OF THE COAST   A love of looting ships And a lust for slitting throats Hate for authority The Brethren of the Coast Keep your conduct to the code May the wind be in your sails Hold your oaths or lose a tongue Dead men tell no tales   Cast your lots together Burn a thousand boats Hoist the black flag higher The Brethren of the Coast They pillage and they plunder The riches of the water Stain the seas with blood   Brothers of the sea Deal in treachery Sail into the night Fortunes shining bright   Keep your rudder firm And stay the course Bring them in range And then enforce The mighty blast of cannon With smoke of blunderbuss   Fear not the endless volley Of lead shot past your body Fight like men of salt Take the cutlass to their throat   Seize the ship and burn it Or add her to the fleet The Brethren of the coast Death before defeat!   Brothers of the sea Deal in treachery Sail into the night Fortunes shining bright

Hot Wired 03:52
HOT WIRED I've been livin' with a noose around my neck Seems like a matter of time Till the hangman finds the end of my rope Make me foot the bill for my crime Holding out for far too long Finally on my own On the run no where to go And I'll be all alone Holding out for far too long Finally on my own On the run no where to go And I'll be all alone You can't catch me No need for a key Hot wired and the law Can't keep me in these walls Desire to be free Hot wired I will be Cutting loose from the shackles that kept me bound On the way to make my escape Broken are the chains that hit floor It's the gamble I'm willing to take Holding out for far too long Finally on my own On the run no where to go And I'll be all alone Holding out for far too long Finally on my own On the run no where to go And I'll be all alone You can't catch me No need for a key Hot wired and the law Can't keep me in these walls Desire to be free Hot wired I will be Solo (Chains) Repeat Chorus Exiled from conventional society On the loose and having a ball Licensed for debauchery Only renegades hear my call I'll be an outlaw for a lifetime No regrets can pull me down Taking my chances Make a break out of your town Breakout of your town!

Nightrance 03:31
NIGHTRANCE I've seen the creatures in the night Feeding on their hungry minds Illuminate the world you see The brightness of the darkness in their eyes The minotaurs all stand in line Take us to the furnace of mankind Riding the conveyer upon the realm of fire Burning deep inside Racing through the netherworlds Stuck in the astral plane Escape the void that's in your mind Of thoughts that were arcane The more you try to break away The more intense the pain Trapped inside an unknown world Where the mind appears insane The kingdoms of the seven kings Have begun to be forged into one The keeper's of the secrets Of the mysteries of ancient Babylon The oracles of old foretold the plight of man Would be his own demise There will be no turning back The universe has drifted into time Because in my dreams I see it all The height of our power and then the fall So come with me to the end of days Will time expire as they all say? A blood filled moon Over eclipsed skies In blood red seas Shouting painful cries The hand of fate Will be unfurled Reaping its vengeance At the end of the world

Heat Seeker 03:57
HEAT SEEKER You're searching for a thrill  She's a red hot street walkin' cutter Her lovin' pays the bills  Danger lurks on every corner Street lights flash burning red Her hips heat up like fire If the price falls short tonight You will surely catch a burner Heat Seeker Identity Unknown She draws you in from the streets When you walk all alone Heat Seeker Her sites set to explode She shows no emotion as You're about to unload Torn stockings and leather thigh highs  Dark desires that you can't deny You're longing for one taste She's always up to satisfy Her body fueled by lust But her lips you can't touch She'll light you up and drain you dry Take the gamble but you might die Heat Seeker Identity Unknown She draws you in from the streets When you walk all alone Heat Seeker Her sites set to explode She shows no emotion as You're about to unload As you cross into her lair All garments hit the ground  She lets down her dark hair  You hear the primal sound! Blasting off into a world of lust Getting burned never felt so good Leaving the scene without a trace Moving as fast as you could Adrenaline starts pumping The temperature is rising  Your mind now realizing that  That you are hooked Heat Seeker...

ROCK YOU HARD The stage is set The lights go down This crowd is waiting for a heavy sound Tuned up and ready We own the night We've come this far We're gonna do it right Ohhh can't you hear it? Screaming axes fill the hall Ohhh you can feel it Metal disciples heed the call Hit the lights and watch the people roar Pounding fists raised to the sky We know our mission is to rock you hard We'll never stop until we die Rock you hard Rock you hard! Ferocious sonic rage Power unchained Crushing waves of heaviness Echo in your brain Earth shaking decibels Speakers overload Blow the roof off of this place Then we hit the road Ohhh can't you hear it? Screaming axes fill the hall Ohhh you can feel it Metal disciples heed the call Hit the lights and watch the people roar Pounding fists raised to the sky We know our mission is to rock you hard We'll never stop until we die Yeah! You made it happen You make us thrive Your energy is what keeps us alive We hope we gave you What you've been asking for We'll see you soon Cuz we'll be back for more Yeah! Hit the lights and watch the people roar Pounding fists raised to the sky We know our mission is to rock you hard We'll never stop until we die Rock you Hard Rock you Hard Raise your fist into the sky We'll never stop until we die

Deep Dweller 04:44
DEEP DWELLER 300 miles at sea At home upon the waves Endless plains of blue Where adventure brings dismay Traverse the towers tall Oil flows endlessly Stay mindful of the dangers Dying comes so easy Jump into the black abyss 200 feet and fall Just another day living the ways Of a deep dweller's call Into your mind past the skull The pressure starts to creep Feel the friction of your bones It's the rapture of the deep Your mind twists Your body bends Hallucinations draw you in Keep your eyes Toward the sky Deep Dweller you must live Catch your breath Clear your head The things you see are lies Don't you die at the lonely depths Their sending you to standby What can you do? When your life slips away! Jump into the black abyss 200 feet and fall Just another day living the ways Of a deep dweller's call Into your mind past the skull The pressure starts to creep Feel the friction of your bones It's the rapture of the deep Embrace the risk you take Your thoughts lead you astray Enter a strange new world Don't forget its deadly Air turns to poison gas Death lies in your blood You can't move your arms The fear you may succumb Victim of the sea No chance you will survive Forever in the deep She claims another life...
