Highway Cavalier 02:36
lyrics
I ride the highway of life Living carefree Going down life's back streets Being what I want to be And I'm meeting people People like me Everyone who feels the need to be free No authority can check me On my crash course to hell Nobody needs to save me Don't wanna hear that bell Living free and easy That's how it's gonna be Yeah free - free to be me! I am moving so fast You'll never catch me I'm just a blur before your eyes Sailing on the breeze Living free and easy That's how it's gonna be Yeah free - free to be me!

The Time Lord 08:08
lyrics
I am the Time Lord I can take you to places you'd never dream Freedom is my world Through time and space where no man has been Climb aboard with me And together we'll fly in my astral machine We'll conquer infinity With ten times the speed of a laser beam Across the universe we'll scream Yes, at ten times the speed of a laser beam We'll journey through space To the end of the furthest galaxy To the time and the place Of future dreams, forgotten reality No distance is too far Out in the stars we can make it with ease Time can hold no bars To someone who's free as a cosmic breeze Barriers crumble, we go where we please Rocketing free as a cosmic breeze

Judgement of the Dead 06:51
lyrics
Galleries of dead are smiling, Candlelight is shining, Judgement of the dead. Hooded corpses form the jury, Point with pent up fury, Judgement of the dead. A courtroom filled with the dead. Judge Satan sits at their head. A cloak of black, that hangs to the ground. Sentence is passed without even a sound. Torn soldiers stand in the aisles, War heroes or fools, yesterday’s child. Dismembered limbs that are lost to deaths glory, Each to his own, the same stupid story. Politicians standing in line, Generals following behind. Chained to the dock with the leaders of religion, Heads bowed low awaiting the decision. Galleries of dead are smiling, candlelight is shining, Judgement of the dead.

The Black Mass 05:36
lyrics
Through the corridors of darkness On the wings of man's desire Conjured by the soulless ones At the everlasting fire Borne on waves of insanity From man's primeval past The mantra of the tumult Has awakened him at last Drawing near in the gloom Comes the twilight of all shame The ravens of night have flown away To set Valhalla aflame For too long now the right hand gods Have fought between themselves With paths that lead to paradise From this demented world This is the age The age of Satan Oh now that the twilight is done (This is the age) (The age of Satan) Oh now that Satan has come Blue velvet shrouds the altar Black candles pierce the dark The skulls of the unbelievers Peer sightless, bleached and stark The inverted cross of burnished gold The burial urns of light The pungent smell of incense Wafts out into the night This is the age The age of Satan Oh now that the twilight is done (This is the age) (The age of Satan) Oh now that Satan has come This is the age The age of Satan Oh now that the twilight is done (This is the age) (The age of Satan) Oh now that Satan has come

Reincarnation 08:57
lyrics
Time on the world had just begun The earth’s lost its role as the universe’s sun, Storm clouds build for impending rain, The birth of the earth begins again. Just like before in the distant past, The hand of the sculptor begins to cast. Shapes of lands, islands and seas, Mountains and valleys, flowers and trees. Dawn!, surging light, brightening up those darkened hills, Bringing life, to the charred remains, A long dead sun now alive again. A long dead sun, now alive again. Trees!, once stark and bare, now spread their wings high in the air. A sea of green over rolling plains, The chain of life begins again, The chain of life, all over the world. Shapes, astral forms now roam the earth, implanting gold. Eternal greed and selfish minds, Leave the seeds to tempt mankind, Leave the seeds, all over the world. Life awakes again, evolving through endless sleep. The fires of hell, the eternal flame, Started it up to begin again, Started it up, all over the world.

Night Rider 04:10
lyrics
Standing high on a pillar of stone, Persephone stands all alone. A figure unravaged by time, Waiting for midnight to chime. Her Hair flows caressed by a gentle breeze, A rustling like the wind in the trees. Her arms slowly point to the sky, It's time for Persephone to fly. Night Rider, casting her mystical spell, Night Rider delivering you into your Hell Streaming miles of flowing shrouds, Mingling in with the clouds. Riding the moons silken beams, Delivering out all your dreams. Night Rider, casting her mystical spell, Night Rider, delivering you into your hell.

about

DYING VICTIMS PRODUCTIONS is proud to reissue PAGAN ALTAR’S cult releases, Judgement of the Dead and The Time Lord, on CD and vinyl LP formats.

While the band is working hard on the upcoming new album, these reissues kick off the collaboration between the British Doom Metal pioneers PAGAN ALTAR and Dying Victims Productions. Based on the beautifully crafted releases on Canada’s Temple of Mystery, these important recordings will finally return into circulation.

Originally recorded back in 1978-79, "The Time Lord" features Pagan Altar’s earliest recordings. Two of these flawlessly executed tracks are from a 24-track recording session, and the rest of the album are early, atmospheric versions of songs that were later re-recorded on Judgement of the Dead. This LP includes a long-lost, never-heard before version of "Night Rider", from the same era as the other songs! This is pure doom metal sorcery.

Originally recorded in 1982 during the NWOBHM movement, Pagan Altar’s debut album, Judgement of the Dead, is a timeless classic of macabre heavy/doom metal centered around magic, witchcraft, and the occult. This holy grail album is one of the purest, most magical records that were ever written, and had a tremendous influence on the heavy/doom metal scene.
