SUNVEIL – Veins of a Broken Empire | Symphonic Metal

Описание: “Veins of a Broken Empire” is a symphonic death metal track that dives deep into the collapse of conquest-driven civilizations, where faith, power, and domination rot beneath the surface of history. This song represents the moment when empires fracture from within, and the land remembers what rulers tried to erase.

Driven by relentless blast beats, low-tuned death metal riffing, and dense, oppressive orchestration, the music delivers continuous aggression with no relief. Dark string ostinatos, dissonant brass, and ritualistic choirs reinforce the brutality rather than soften it. The sound is fast, violent, and ceremonial.

The female operatic soprano vocals stand in stark contrast to the extreme instrumentation, performed with true classical technique, powerful projection, sustained high notes, and dramatic authority. The voice does not comfort — it condemns, narrating ruin and memory from above the chaos.

“Veins of a Broken Empire” continues the conceptual narrative of invasion, erasure, and historical violence, where stone, blood, and soil preserve truths long denied.

LYRICS
--------------------------------

Stone breathes
The ground opens


Veins of a broken empire
Pulse beneath the dust
Crowns collapse into marrow
Faith corrodes to rust

Banners rot in sacred fire
Names erased by law
What was carved in living stone
Is devoured by war

Veins of a broken empire
Blood runs through the land
Veins of a broken empire
No truth survives command

Altars split by marching steel
Scriptures torn in flame
History exhales in screams
Nothing left to name

Gold speaks louder than mercy
Order sharper than prayer
Salvation wears a blade
And calls the wound repair

Veins of a broken empire
Bone beneath the throne
Veins of a broken empire
Stone remembers alone

Ix…
The ground does not forget
The sun does not absolve

Veins of a broken empire
Ash crowns every reign
Veins of a broken empire
All dominion ends in stain

Stone closes
Blood remains
