| Skyclad is a British heavy metal band with strong folk influences in their music. They were formed by former Sabbat vocalist Martin Walkyier, and Satan / Blind Fury / Pariah guitarist Steve Ramsey in 1990 to represent the “ultimate pagan metal band”. From the start, they have incorporated a diverse range of influences from British folk music to German thrash metal which has fed their constantly evolving sound. They are widely considered the inventors of folk metal. The lineup remained stable for the recording of 2000’s Folkémon, but founding member Walkyier left the band in 2001, citing various reasons, such as financial difficulties or the bands unwillingness to tour in South America owing to security concer... more... | |||||||

Think Back And Lie Of England lyrics |

(It's a load of old John Bull) Cruel Britannia ruled the waves, Empire oiled by toiling slaves. White flag stained St.George Cross red, and blues sung for the countless dead God save brave Johnny Company, stiff-upper-lipped he sipped his tea, atop a mound of babes he'd killed, to keep our nations coffers filled. [Chorus] Think back and lie of England. Conceal the evil we have done. Think back and lie of England. Fake alibis for Albion Meanwhile back on British loam, Irish driven from their homes. Persecuted Welsh and Scot, and robbed them all of all they'd got. Bound unto the plough and yoke, they broke the backs of honest folk. Built a gentlemen's Jerusalem. I'm ashamed I share my race with them! [Chorus] Think back and lie of England. Conceal the evil we have done. Think back and lie of England. Fake alibis for Albion So will our future history tell, how we've used this country well? If you ask me, well I think not, unless we watch these bigots rot. In poverty the masses drown; So raise a Dome in Greenwich town? The Cenotaph is strewn with flowers, yet arms-deals struck with fascist powers! [Chorus] Think back and lie of England. Conceal the evil we have done. Think back and lie of England. Fake alibis for Albion |
