Heretofore, the band has released a promo CD called "Ray of Time" (2004), and their first full length album, "Horns of Silence" (2007). They might be compared to Elvenking by some, especially considering the fact that Elvenking's singer, Damnagoras, appears as a guest singer on a few tracks of the debut album.

Ragnarok
Spellblast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My father will die
Eaten by his wolf son Fenrir
The moon and the sun
Will disappear from the sky
Rainbow bridge will crumble away
A new world will arise
Come back from the reign of death
A snake in the clouds
Has taken his flight
It will come the time
When I′ll have again to fight
Earth will be shaken
Due to the cosmic tree
Loki will sail with hell's warship
While the white guardian god
Will blow in his horn
Valhalla′s army will be forced to march
A new world will arise
Mighty gods will rise again
Come back from the reign of death
A snake in the clouds
Has taken his flight
It will come the time
When I'll have again to fight
Battle will be so cruel
I will avenge my father's death
My great sword will pierce the wolf′s heart
Then my brother will exhale his last tiring breath
While the fire is wasting the life in the world
′Til the end
The lyrics to "Ragnarok" by Spellblast describe the apocalyptic event in Norse mythology known as Ragnarok. It portrays the final battle between the gods and various other mythical beings, ultimately leading to the destruction and subsequent rebirth of the world.
The lyrics begin by foreshadowing the death of the father, who is Odin, the king of the Norse gods. Odin's death is prophesied to be caused by his son Fenrir, who is depicted as a savage wolf. This event signifies the end of days and the impending chaos. The disappearance of the moon, sun, and crumbling of the rainbow bridge, which connects the realms, further emphasize the magnitude of the impending catastrophe.
The song then narrates the emergence of a new world, where the gods, who were once thought to be dead, will rise again. However, there is a sense of impending doom as a snake in the clouds, representing the infamous serpent Jormungandr, prepares for its role in the upcoming battle. The singer of the song acknowledges that he too will have to fight, indicating his loyalty to the gods and his role in the final conflict.
The lyrics continue with vivid descriptions of the impending battle and the destruction it brings. The earth trembles due to the cosmic tree, Yggdrasil, which forms the center of the Norse cosmology. Loki, the trickster god, is depicted sailing with a warship from the underworld, reinforcing the chaos and danger that lies ahead. The white guardian god blowing his horn signifies the call for action, bringing Valhalla's army into the battle.
The singer vows to avenge his father's death, symbolizing his loyalty and determination. He sees himself piercing Fenrir's heart with his great sword, and his brother meeting his end as well. The devastating fire that consumes the world signifies the end of everything, signifying the ultimate destruction that leads to rebirth.
Overall, the lyrics of "Ragnarok" by Spellblast paint a vivid picture of the apocalyptic battle in Norse mythology. It showcases the themes of destruction, chaos, and the subsequent resurrection of a new world.

I just found out Jonathan Spagnuolo is dead, goddammit... Even if Spellblast has taken a different direction, which I still enjoy, Jonathan's voice marked a part of my journey as a power metal fan, especially with the second album, that really felt like a whole adventure.
Rest in peace, viking.
