Crimson Glory

Crimson Glory is an American progressive metal band that formed in 1979 under the name Pierced Arrow (later changed to 'Beowulf'). Their current line-up features long-time guitarists Jon Drenning and Ben Jackson, bassist Jeff Lords, drummer Dana Burnell and singer Todd La Torre. The band formed in Sarasota, Florida. As a pioneer of the American progressive metal movement, Crimson Glory rose to international fame in the 1980s and was ranked as one of the early "flagship bands of progressive metal" along with Queensrÿche and Fates Warning, who were responsible for creating and developing that genre. Crimson Glory has released four studio albums and one EP. They broke up in 1992, but decided to reform six years later. more »

The pain lingers on beyond these castle walls
The red death is taking them all
While the king and his court dance the night away
At the masquerade
The hour of midnight grows near

Masque of the red death
No one is safe from the poisonous plague
That you breed

Dance while you may in the dark of the room
With the stranger
Laugh while you may, laugh at the danger
Is this a message from god
Or fate guiding hideous hands?
Won't you show us your face

Masque of the red death
No one is safe from the poisonous plague
That you breed
Masque of the red death
No one is saved, no one remembers your name
Your name

On and on, one by one we fall
Into the bleeding arms of the stranger
Ripping the masque from your face
I feel your disease running
Through my veins
A new king of death threatens us all

Masque of the red death
No one is safe from the poisonous plague
That you breed
Masque of the red death
The price that you pay for your lust
May be your life
