about

The Dark Horde is a collective of internationally recognised musicians, vocalists and actors from Melbourne, Australia. Together they have created The Calling, a concept album written and directed by Andrew "Brewin" Drage.

The Calling is a musical narrative experience featuring a supernatural horror story set to an "eighties heavy metal" soundtrack. It is the prequel to Brewin's award-winning horror novel The Dark Horde, set in south-eastern Australia in 1989.

Introduction is the first track from The Calling album.

lyrics

(Logan/Hanny/Brewin)

I was once an avid believer in many things.
I believed in love, in compassion, in hope.
I even believed in a god watching lovingly over us
and that somewhere, within the mystery of it all,
there was a special place for us.

This inclination towards blind faith was strong in me,
stamped upon my DNA, cultivated through my upbringing.
I was sheltered from the brutal reality of this world,
hidden from the horrible truths of our existence.

(Solo: Logan)

The lucky among us remain sheltered, shielded by ignorance,
but I am not one of those fortunate few.
For nothing, perhaps not even death, can erase from my tortured mind
the far-reaching implications of what I now know.
