HESS estrena nuevos videos

La banda de heavy metal HESS oriunda de la ciudad de Rosario, ubicada en la provincia de Santa Fe, publicó en su canal de YouTube en lo que va de este 2020 una serie de videoclips de los cuales elegimos a “Chaos At Uruk”, “Hagalaz” y “Atlantean Dreams”.

Formados en 2010, el potente quinteto rosarino nos ofrece una interesante propuesta musical basada en el heavy metal clásico de los 80 donde las melodías y sus composiciones junto con la majestuosa voz de su frontwoman dan como resultado una exquisita y excelente producción de calidad, que seguramente atrapará a todos los seguidores de la vieja escuela ochentera.

También hay que destacar que esas características le permitieron obtener, a lo largo de su década, muy buenas criticas tanto nacional como internacional. Poseen un Demo “Blood & Iron” (2012) y dos álbumes: “ Hagalaz” (2014) y “Harpokrates” (2019). Este segundo y último material de estudio llamó la atención de algunos sellos discográficos, a lo que la banda finalmente decidió firmar contrato con el sello griego Sonic Age Records, el cual lanzará una edición europea del álbum que incluirá un bonus track y se editará en formato CD y vinilo.

En cuanto a los clips, en el primero de ellos observamos a la banda tocando en vivo. Fue dirigido por Eduardo “Hucho” Schefer. La edición estuvo a cargo de Juan Matías Schefer, mientras que el make-up por Florencia Giraudo. El segundo es de formato lyric y el tercero posee imágenes de la banda plasmando el espíritu, el alma y la pasión de sus integrantes.

Letra

At dawn the Kings sailed across the sky
In the calm of the storm-God
The ocean swallowed mountain and land
Darkening all that was bright

The scream of the Goddess of wars
Speaking evil in the hall of Gods

A black cloud from the horizon
Set the land on fire
It is I who spoke evil before Them
Now the lost souls weep with me

The scream of the Goddess of wars
Speaking evil in the hall of Gods
Indeed the past has turned to clay
Like an ox she swept the land of Khem

The scream of the Goddess of wars
Speaking evil in the hall of Gods
Indeed the past has turned to clay
Like an ox she swept the land of Khem.

Letra

Hear the sound of thunder roar
High above, the nine moons whirl in ice and fire
It’s the cry of the mighty aurochs
I’m surrounded by dark like a damned outsider

Icy walls above my head
As I walk along the field of the dead

Misty shadows dancing for me
I stand in the middle of crystal hexes
I hear His voice as the storm grows near
Heavy drops pounding on, “there’s no fear”

My field laid waste with merciless wrath
I call upon the Thrice Born

Hail
Cold sickness to evil snakes
Hail
My golden sleep
For the sake of rebirth

In the aftermath of the storm
I cry out in anger, damage done
The faint hiss of gnawing jaws
The Child crying, “All is not lost!”

My field laid waste with merciless wrath
I call upon the Thrice Born

A seed melting in my hand
A berry, a yew tree growing high
Brought from the Nine Worlds
Brought into unity with the All

By singing the spell of hagalaz
The dawn of ancient times

Hail
Cold sickness to evil snakes
Hail
My golden sleep
For the sake of rebirth

Icy walls above my head
As I walk along the field of the dead

Hear the sound of the thunder roar
High above, the nine moons whirl in ice and fire
It’s the cry of the mighty aurochs
I’m surrounded by dark like a damned outsider

By singing the spell of hagalaz
I know I can come back

[Hail
Cold sickness to evil snakes
Hail
My golden sleep
For the sake of rebirth]

“Standing on the icy mounds, I realize I’ve been saved
For hail is a cold grain
And the shower of sleet
And the sickness of snakes”.

Letra

I walk into the depths of the sacred temple
Trying to earn the keys to immortality

My heart, an ocean of Atmic thought
Like raindrops on the dry soil

I have become the ocean in the calm of souls
With the 18th’s rings, two hearts as one

When heaven meets the earth in Enki’s haven
Listen to the thunder roar

My mind is a spiral
A neverending golden whirlwind
Who am I? Where am I?
Is there a price to pay for eternity?

My mind is a spiral
A neverending golden whirlwind
Who am I? Where am I?
Is there a price to pay?
My mind is a spiral
A neverending golden whirlwind
Who am I? Where am I?
Is there a price to pay for eternity?

There’s always a price to pay

Two hearts as one

For eternity.
