1. Conquest was formed in 1996 in Kharkov, Ukraine as a solo studio project of the guitarist W.Angel, playing classic hard rock influenced by Def Leppard.
Up to the end of 1997 the staff was complete and on the 7th of January 1998 Conquest performed the first live show. In 1998 the band played lots of gigs in Ukraine, among them the show with Russian heavy metal legend Aria. After a few changes in the staff the band began playing more fast and aggressive music. The first demo, which was released by Russian label Irond Rec. with the title “Endless Power” included fast melodic tracks with some Slavonic folk melodies combined with power-speed riffs and impressing vocals. The band changed the style of music to euro power metal.
The second LP “Frozen Sky” released by Ukrainian indie label “Musical Hall Distribution” was kept in the same aggressive but melodic style. Playing songs from these two albums on different stages of Ukraine and neighboring countries, Conquest became one of the most popular and actual metal bands in Ukraine.
During the first half of 2008 the band recorded new songs and played lots of gigs, including the show with Epidemy in Odessa. In June Conquest performed at the biggest bike show in Ukraine The Goblin Show Fest being the headliner of one of the days.
In the Summer of 2008 the band also took part in the international musical fest Pro-Rock, where the german band Rage played as the headliner.
In the Autumn of 2008 the band accepted the invitation to perform at two gigs of swedish band "Sabaton" that were organized in Poland cities Warsaw and Krakow.
The Spring of 2009 was full of gigs and shows, the most significant of which was the Kiev gig with the band Sirenia from Norway.
The new album Taste of Life, was released June 2015 on Ferrum Records. In the summer of 2012 the band decided to change lead singers. Conquest has since gone re-branding and changed their name to W. Angel's Conquest

I Wanna Be With You
Conquest Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where's the light? I can not see
Madness in my head
I don't know I'm live or dead
I can not hear this voice
I wanna fly
All I need's to die
Nowhere and nowhere again
Now I can feel only pain
I can not live without you
I'll die without you, it's true
I wanna be without you
Lightning broke my mind
I can't fly - it's too high
When the candle fades
I can see your face
I feel your warm breath
On my leaps
All I have - these dreams
[Chorus.]
[Solo: W. Angel]
[Chorus.]
The lyrics of Conquest's "I Wanna Be With You" express a sense of loneliness and desperation. The opening lines depict a nightmare which has left the singer confused and disoriented. They cannot see the light and do not know if they're alive or dead. They feel disconnected from reality, unable to hear a voice that would anchor them in the present. The pain and desperation of the singer are further expressed in the lines -- "All I need to do is die" -- which suggest that they see death as a release from their suffering.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the theme of the pain of separation from the one they love. The line "Nowhere and nowhere again/ Now I can feel only pain" suggest that the singer's life feels devoid of meaning and is filled only with suffering. The repeated line, "I can not live without you/ I'll die without you, it's true" underscores the depth of their longing for their loved one, which is so intense that they feel they would rather be dead than live without them. Yet despite this, the refrain "I wanna be without you" suggests a conflict within the singer, who wants their pain to end even if it means leaving the one they love.
Overall, the lyrics of "I Wanna Be With You" give voice to the pain of separation from someone you deeply love, which can be a powerful and all-consuming feeling. The song also touches on the theme of inner conflict, as the singer expresses a desire to escape their suffering while at the same time expressing the depth of their longing for their loved one.
