about

Red Cain's foray into black metal - a genre that shaped much of our musical backgrounds. The most aggressive and heavy track on the album, “Baltic Fleet” was written to be a bastard child of Behemoth and Abigail Williams, with Tyler Corbett moulding our initial idea into an absolute black metal beast that means growls will definitely make their way into future RC songs.

“We fall, so others can rise again”. Every war has its forgotten heroes. Within the album, they come to Mstislav’s aid at a crucial time to keep the gates shut against an overwhelming enemy presence.

Inspired by, and commemorative of the concept of the Unknown Soldier, “Baltic Fleet'' is the battlecry of the honoured dead that gave their lives for peace. Many of our grandfathers fought in the wars of the 20th century and it is our great and humble privilege to be able to salute their sacrifice in this small way.

lyrics

We
Are soldiers of Baltic Fleet
And we sail to defeat
Flags
Higher and higher

We
Are echoes of those who tend
The fire in eyes of men
We fall
So others can rise
Again

Halfway we reach, reach to the burning stars
Caught between heaven and hell
All we have left are the ragged wounds
Of brothers, brothers alive/(Many nights)

We stood here (We stood here)
We fell there (We fell there)
And winter winds cover our names

We’re still here (We’re still here)
To watch the pretenders awake!
At the gates... (At the gates!)

We stand!
Not the strongest of men
But we fought for our land

We stand
Behind us is Russia

We
Are soldiers of Baltic Fleet
And we sail to defeat
Flags
Higher and higher

We
Are echoes of those who tend
The fire in eyes of men
We fall
So others can rise
Again

Turn the arclights on
Train them on the horizon above
Set the gunpowder and tungsten alight
And we will bring you down

We
Are soldiers of Baltic Fleet
And we sail to defeat
Flags
Higher and higher

We
Are echoes of those who tend
The fire in eyes of men
We fall
So others can rise
Again

Loose
A thousand wolves
On the frozen North
(Storm the horizon above)

Dead ecstasies live
In this revenant flesh
And we will bring you down!

Loose
A thousand wolves
On the frozen North
(Storm the horizon above)

Dead ecstasies live
In this revenant flesh
And we will bring you down!
