| 1. Battle-Tested
[G. Feldhausen]
Gunfire from the hill
Will bring the overkill
We're born to fight with a heart of steel
Comrades follow you
That's what we'll always do
One for all no one stands alone, no
Don't you hear me calling you at night
Are you ready to fight
To the glory rais |

Вторая работа немецкого ответа английским Motorhead и Saxon со звуком Iron Savior’a Gun-Barrel получилась ровно такой, какой её и ожидали – рок-н-ролльной, заводной и агрессивной с той лишь поправкой, что почти все это мы уже слышали на прошлом компакте «Power-Dive». Хрипловатый вокал (не Лемми, но где-то около того), задорные мелодии и готов саундтрэк под пивную вечеринку с друзьями. Единственная проблема альбома – его продолжительность: минут через сорок от начала пластинки начинаешь уставать от одинаковых, пусть и веселых песенок, к концу же диска удовольствие сменяется на некоторое раздражение. Так что мой вам совет – слушайте диск в два захода или в рэндоме минут 40, будет только лучше. (Диск предоставлен компанией CD-Maximum) |

Вполне закономерное продолжение дебютного альбома. Все тот же бодрый рок-н-ролл с железным звуком, хрипловатым мощным вокалом, развеселыми гитарами и угарным ритмом. Если вам понравился "Power-Dive" - скорее всего и этот альбом плотно застрянет в музыкальном центре. Некоторый минус - затянутость. В лимитированном издании с парой бонусов он длится около часа. Ближе к концу все сливается воедино.
А так - в строю наличествуют боевики "Battle-Tested", "We Believe In Nothing", "Roll Of The Dice", "Lonely Rider", чисто рок-н-ролльный номер "Party In The Hall Of Fame", грустные медляки "My Last Ale", "Rebel Tune", ненавязчивые "Lover Like A Gun" и "Scream Of The Killer". Ничего принципиально нового по сравнению с первым альбомом мы не услышим, но вполне качественный материал радует. |

Thousand bullets fly
Falling from the sky
We stand together not afraid to die
Riding against the wind
We're on a one way street
Follow the way straight down to hell
Don't you hear me calling you at night
Are you ready to fight
To the glory raise your glasses high
We are battle-tested
We are battle-tested
Yes and we, we are battle-tested
We're never going back
Again we will attack
Firing the gun till the battle's won
We fight at Wounded Knee
We set the spirit free
Born to fight with a heart of steel
Don't you hear me calling you at night
Are you ready to fight
To the glory raise your glasses high
We are battle-tested
We are battle-tested
Yes and we, we are battle-tested
Don't you hear me calling you at night
Are you ready to fight
To the glory raise your glasses high
We are battle-tested
We are battle-tested
Yes and we, we are battle-tested
We, we are battle-tested
Battle-tested, alright, bullets fly, we'll never die
2. We Believe In Nothing
[G. Feldhausen]
Start the show it's time for us to go
Let me hear the sound's made of steel
Heavy songs, long nights and dirty words
Play the music loud until it hurts
Going where the wind blows to the kings of Rock`n?Roll
We stand here as one together we are strong
People scream we wanna do those dirty deeds
We let them live in that belief
One for all and all for one
That's the spirit where we all belong
Let us hear your voices this is your rebel song
We stand here as one your time has come
Alright that's the way to do
We believe in nothing
Come over too
Alright that's the way to do
We believe in nothing
Come over too
Come over too, yeah
Feel the power and get to the groove
Everyone has got a heart of steel
Don't live in dread just bang your head
Round and round we'll turn the iron wheel
Going where the wind blows to the kings of Rock`n?Roll
We stand here as one together we are strong
Alright that's the way to do
We believe in nothing
Come over too
Alright that's the way to do
We believe in nothing
Come over too
Come over too, yeah
Let us hear your voices this is your rebel song
We stand here as one your time has come
Alright that's the way to do
We believe in nothing
Come over too
Alright that's the way to do
We believe in nothing
Come over too
That's the way to do
3. My Last Ale
[G. Feldhausen]
It was late at night when I was coming home
Wherever I may roam I'm always alone
I heard Old Nick calling me: My friend it's time to go
But there's something left for me that I have do
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
When I drink my last ale
I drink my last ale
I've turned the page I've closed that book of life
I'm on a crazy ride but I'm trying to survive
I'll enjoy my life till I have to go take it easy take it slow
I won't forget there's something left to do
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
When I drink my last ale
I drink my last ale
When the time has come to say good-bye
You don't have to cry
Raise your glass to the sky
Cause I will never die
Have a drink on me set the spirit free
And I will hear your call
Now the time is right for me to go
Cause that's the only way of Rock`n?Roll
Going down the wrong way it has been a hard way
That's what I have to do
Living on the edge but never going back
I'm running against the storm
And when Old Nick is calling me: My friend it's time to go
There will be something left for me to do
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
When I drink my last ale
I drink my last ale
When the time has come to say good-bye
You don't have to cry
Raise your glass to the sky
Cause I will never die
Have a drink on me set the spirit free
And I will hear your call
Now the time is right for me to go
Cause that's the only way of Rock`n?Roll
When the time is right to go
4. Roll Of The Dice
[G. Feldhausen]
Heart is beating fast time is standing still
The dice's in my hand the ultimate thrill
I can not resist, oh no
Adrenaline is pumping through my veins
Tonight I will be gambling the game of the games
Roll of the dice
Dancing with the devil
Roll of the dice
He looks at you with his snakes eyes
Roll, roll of the dice
Roll, roll of the dice
Bitten by a snake poison in my soul
I'm addicted I'm out of control
Out of control yeah
Roll of the dice
Dancing with the devil
Roll of the dice
He looks at you with his snakes eyes
Roll, roll of the dice
Roll, roll of the dice
Down and out, broke again
There goes my life down the drain
There will be a few bucks to borrow
Today I've lost so I'm winning tomorrow
Roll of the dice
Dancing with the devil
Roll of the dice
He looks at you with his snakes eyes
Roll, roll of the dice
Roll, roll of the dice
5. Rebel Tune
[G. Feldhausen]
Will you remember the age of the kings
When warriors crossed the land
We stand by your side to fight for your right
Born with a blade in your hand
We will follow your call
We will come when you call us to the war
Tyrants are coming to down us all
Fight to save our souls
Thousands will fall onto the battle
This is the tune of the rebel
Down, down and far away
I can see that Neverland
Hold out and take my hand
We will fight till the end
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Raise your blades for victory
We carry the cross of the death
Hear our battle cry
We're brothers in arms we march for the war
Together we fight or we'll die
Down, down and far away
I can see that Neverland
Hold out and take my hand
We will fight till the end
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Raise your blades for victory
Out on the field
Fall and be reborn
Onto the battle
This is the tune of the rebel
Down, down and far away
We can see that Neverland
Hold out and take my hand
We will fight till the end
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Raise your blades for victory
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Far, far away
Sing the song of the rebel tune
I can see that neverland
Sing the song of the rebel tune
Take my hand
Sing the song of the rebel tune
We will fight until the end
6. Lonely Rider
[G. Feldhausen]
I'm on my way million miles from home
I'm on the run don't know where to go
Who knows where I'll be tomorrow
I have had too many sorrows
Will all the dreams that I've lost
Coming back and who can I trust
I will go home sooner or later
To write my live on a piece of paper
I'm a lonely rider
Coming home to you, alright
Now I'm here and now I'm there
I take the risk but I don't take care
A hell-raiser who broke the rules
Don't need a gun I take other tools
All you girls and all you boys
Listen to my fuckin' voice
Write my live on a piece of paper
The story of a lawbreaker
I'm a lonely rider
Coming home to you
I'm a lonely rider
I'm coming home, coming home to you
He won't stop he's a rider
Don't give it up he's a fighter
Don't you come back lonely rider
Won't you go back lonely rider
Let me walk the only way
Don't tell me that I have to stay
I waste my time too many lies
Therefore I have paid the price
Why don't you listen to my story
I'm a lonely rider but I ain't worried
At one of these days today or later
I'll write my life on a piece of paper
I'm a lonely rider
I'm coming home to you
I'm a lonely rider
Coming home to you
I'm a lonely rider
Coming home to you
I'm a lonely rider
I'm coming home, oh yeah I'm coming home
I'm coming home to you

Lights up the Australian sky
Let the fire burn tonight
Let's get high when the band gets right
Raise your hands into the light

9. Scream Of The Killer
[G. Feldhausen]
He was fighting for freedom all for the realm
He has heard the knell and he's seen pure hell
Hundreds were killed by the might of his sword
Too tired to fight cause there ain't no reward
Screaming
Scream of the killer
Again they are calling, they call him to war
Will he survive or will they let him die
And after all he has changed quiet a lot
He turned into a beast and the nightmare won't stop
Screaming
Scream of the killer
The scream of the killer that nobody heard
He will come back to take his revenge
Return of the killer always on the run
Everyone dies before the day is done
After the war when he's coming home
With a heart full of rage he hates everyone
Ready to kill he roams through the night
Don't turn your back or he will attack
Screaming
Scream of the killer
The scream of the killer that nobody heard
He will come back to take his revenge
Return of the killer always on the run
Everyone dies before the day is done
In his cold cell he's waiting he's ready to die
In the dark of the alleys you can hear his cry
People are screaming: Burn at the stake
He will return with all of his hate
Screaming
Scream of the killer
The scream of the killer that nobody heard
He will come back to take his revenge
Return of the killer always on the run
Everyone dies before the day is done
Before the day is done
10. The Raven
[G. Feldhausen]
When the raven's in the sky
Black wings let him fly
The raven brought the pain
And many of us will die
In the fear of death
There's nothing left to regret
In the dawn we have to fight, yeah
And the rats come out at night
A cry in the still of the night
Will we ever see the light
I say free us from our chains
We are the broken men
When the raven brought the pain
Like a fallen angel always on the run
One hand for the Bible the other slings the gun
The priest blessed you he's calling us to pray
We'll follow the raven on his bloody way
We're riding down the hill battle's raging high
In the sign of the cross we're all gonna die
The reaper comes to sing his deadly song
That's the fate where we all belong
A cry in the still of the night
Will we ever see the light
I say free us from our chains
We are the broken men
When the raven brought the pain, oh yeah
Break the iron chains
Will you free us from the pain
We are the broken men
When the raven brought the pain
When the raven brought the pain, oh yeah
Break the iron chains
Will you free us from the pain
We are the broken men
When the raven brought the pain
In the night
When the raven brought the pain
11. Save My Heart From You
[G. Feldhausen]
I feel your fire
And it's burning hot
And it takes me higher
Right back to the start
I know you're rotten to the core
But I feel like I've never felt before, it's alright
You tell me I'm a rough boy
Those words that make me strong
But I know you really enjoy
Treating me like a dog
And when you put me down onto my knees
I wanna leave you just to get me free, it's alright
Will I save my heart from you
Can I believe you're being true
Do you wanna tell me lies
And will I see it in your eyes
Will I save my heart from you
Can I believe you're being true
Do you wanna tell me lies
And will I see it in your eyes
You show me that you need me
When you're feeling down
I just hate it but I love it
Don't say I'm the only one
And when you tell me all these little lies
I really hope you will fall through the ice, oh yeah
You're like the fallen angel
Like a devil on the run
And when you tell me that it's over
Please tell me what I've done
Will you miss a man who prays to you
Or will you break another heart in two, and feel right
Will I save my heart from you
Can I believe you're being true
Do you wanna tell me lies
And will I see it in your eyes
Will I save my heart from you
Can I believe you're being true
Do you wanna tell me lies
And will I see it in your eyes
12. Death Knell Dance
[G. Feldhausen]
Inside outside pump up the sound
And don't tell us we're too loud
Feel the power and feel the heat
Bang your head to the metal beat
Burning turning through my brain
Till it's driving me insane
Oh yeah we're breaking the chains
Shout it out we will do it again
I know you love it
We're too young to die
Don't wanna stop it
Come on enjoy your life
Death knell dance, looking for trouble
Death knell dance, come over to fight
Death knell dance, I know that you want it
Death knell dance, join in with all your might
Play it loud to reach the top
Speaker blows we'll never stop
We don't lick anybody's boots
Don't tell us what we have to do
Raise up your voices shout it out
We stand fearless we are proud
Scream it out into the night
Raise up your hands into the light
Do you love it
We're too young to die
We don't wanna stop it
Come on enjoy your life
Death knell dance, looking for trouble
Death knell dance, come over to fight
Death knell dance, I know that you want it
Death knell dance, join in with all your might
