lyrics

The wind is carrying her name through the air. It sounds the way to Hagley Woods where she stands. They say there’s evil in those woods so beware. But Bella is the keeper of the evil and she’s still there.

A hand of glory brings the truth to light. Her body lies within his watchful eye. Everything is not all as it seems, as it seems.

So who, put Bella in the wych elm? She will never wake again. To the elm Bella was condemned.

Through the streets the a sign will burn, for her. Keep the mystery alight, for years. A wedding band means there were tears for her. The wilderness she knows this witch, she cries murder.

In dreams, eyes staring out of trees. Her crooked mouth still screams, look close! Could this be a wartime witchery? Or just a heinous deed?

No face no remains, just a name...they wanted it hidden. No face, no remains, just a name...they're never forgiven.

Just some very quality stoner rock/metal. Excellent riffs, guitar tone, vocals, production, and great hooks. My biggest complaint about a lot of this kind of music is a lot of bands forget to include hooks. Acid Magus didn't. mobesneedmusic

The funk and prog bits sprinkled on this muthalovin' heavy groovy cake make it oh so tasty, and I like a good, unpretentious concept album. I'll have another slice right now, hold the nanobots, thank you ! Coraxio
