Samsas Traum – Die Zähne In Der Hand Lyrics 19 years ago
Auf www.aurora-acht.de gibt es in den Interviews einige gute Einblicke in die Bedeutung der Lieder auf a.Ura.

http://www.aurora-acht.de/1024x768/htmldocs/interview_gothic.php

Das Stück „Die Zähne in der Hand" stellt den Höhepunkt der Platte dar. Der Protagonist kehrt von seiner Reise zurück und findet am frühen Morgen sein „Ego" neben der Liebe seines Lebens liegend vor. Es entbrennt ein blutiger Kampf, der auf a.Uras Kosten ausgetragen wird und dessen Ziel es ist, dem Gegner die Zähne auszuschlagen, um mit ihnen in der geballten Faust noch fester zuschlagen zu können. Ich wollte mich am Ende der Geschichte mit mir selbst konfrontieren und den Kampf, den ich in mir innerhalb des letzten Jahres ausgetragen habe, noch einmal Revue passieren lassen. Da dieser Kampf mit äußerst harten Bandagen gekämpft wurde, habe ich die Metapher der „Zähne in der Hand" gewählt.

Sonata Arctica – False News Travel Fast Lyrics 20 years ago
Maybe this song is about rumors and lies someone spread concerning the lyrical ego?

But go ahead and blame the fool
You have beliefs that aren´t true

Seems quite clear to me.

E Nomine – Gottes Beitrag und Teufels Werk Lyrics 20 years ago
As the people of the occident
Settled down, founding their nations
The glory of the old gods began to fade

From then on there ruled only one god,
the allmighty ... the Lord of Christians

But while this one faith
irresisteble conquered the hearts of man
the devil burned his mark into the flesh of the heathens

This the the story of mankind
Gods contribution and Satans work

E Nomine – Das Böse Lyrics 20 years ago
Das Böse = The Evil

Describing the "nature" of evil, how it haunts our very soul, plants horrid thougts and feelings in our mind and such.

E Nomine – Vater Unser Lyrics 20 years ago
I doubt E Nomine are "religious". Some of their songs are quite... distrubing. And some are plain "satanic".

E Nomine – Deine Welt Lyrics 20 years ago
It's a description of the manmade apocalypse, about how we tread our own planet ect.

Denk nach bevor du ihr Urteil fällst,
Sie gehört nicht dir, doch sie ist deine Welt

Think before judging her (The world/our planet)
It doesn't belong to you, but it is your world

Amon Amarth – For The Stabwounds In Our Backs Lyrics 20 years ago
About the warriors of Hel. All those who died "unhonorable". This included per se even those who died of old age or by murder.

They'll rise on the day of Ragnarök to fight on the side of "evil" and, as stated here, to take vengeance on those who betrayed them.

Amon Amarth – Down The Slopes Of Death Lyrics 20 years ago
Amon Amarth's lyrics are kinda obvious.
This one 's about Ragnarök and Odins last battle. Odin knew that one day the end of the world would come, and most of the gods would die, too:
He knows now what is to come
No use to try and run

Odin gets killed by Fenrir:
A beast with sharp yellow teeth
And hateful burning yes

Who, in return will be ripped apart by Vidar, one of Odins sons.

Amon Amarth – Across The Rainbow Bridge Lyrics 20 years ago
From what I know, suicide was considered unhonorable by the norsemen, so he would end up in Helheim instead of Valhalla. ;)

Demons and Wizards – The Whistler Lyrics 20 years ago
A truely evil interpretation of the Pied Piper of Hamelin.
He drives the rats out of Hamelin, drowns them and so on...
The townspeople refuse to pay him, so he takes their children.
The real story just says they were never seen again, but the song suggests what might have happend...

He fed them to rats. Muhahaha, I love this.

Demons and Wizards – Blood On My Hands Lyrics 20 years ago
This is clearly about the Nibelungs.

Siegfried bathed in Fafnirs (a dragon) blood, thus becoming invincible whereever the blood touched his body, but...

A treacherous leaf
And a secret unsealed
It will cause deadly wounds

a leaf fell on his shoulder unnoticed. The blood didn't touch him there, so this was his achilles' heel.
Later on, he is betrayed by his loved one, who knew about the spot on his shoulder. She is convinced by Hagen of Tronje to "mark the spot so I may watch over it in battle." And so on.
