5) Thunderstorm: is a Romanian Power Metal band founded in 1997. In 1998, when the boys first entered the studio to record the „Tales From a Dying World“ demo, the 16-year-old guys didn’t have a clue that the next ten years would be like a roller coaster ride. Like any aspiring band, in a totally unfriendly musical context, Thunderstorm has sought for a few years the right members and stylistic direction, and finally consolidating its strong inner core:exceptional vocalist Vlad Necula, bassist Alex Pascu and virtuoso lead guitarist Andrei Gingirof. Not waiting for any support from the local metal labels, the band releases the same year the self-produced LP called „Beyond the Dawn“, which sold out almost instantly, the CD’s from the first edition are now almost of collectible value. Following the release and especially the live appearances around the country, with some air- play and even TV appearances, the band was regarded as one of the country’s best heavy metal groups. Of course, this „label“ compelled the band to raise the standards of their music even more. In 2003, the band releases its first song with lyrics in their native tongue „Ultimul Drum“ (The Last Road), the song becoming an instant hit and attracting lots of new fans. It was a new beginning for the band and, in 2005, with a new powerful line- up with a great chemistry, Thunderstorm enters the infamous Sfera Studios in Bucharest, alongside producer Costin Dumitrache, to record „Vise Digitale“, their first LP with lyrics in Romanian. It was also their first official release, under the label Metalfan Records Divisioon. The LP was released at the Lot of Rage concert, at Bucharest’s infamous Roman Arenas, along- side legendary bands Rage and Lake of Tears. The album got great reviews around the country, but, surprisingly, even better reviews from abroad – the webzines and magazines being absolutely thrilled by the product and especially by the „guts“ to play heavy metal in another language than English. 2007 was also Thunderstorm’s first live appearance abroad, at the Music Arts Festival in Bulgaria. Currently, the band is working on new songs for a new record, that the band will release at the end of this year. In July the band will be opening for Primal Fear and Judas Priest in Bucharest.
The Prophecy
Thunderstorm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
they say... it's not real, it's an illusion
satan has made his conclusion
he's waiting and prepare the war
Humans still believe in liars
slaves of dreams, it's dark desire
lord of the sun, god of fire
the angel is winner of war
heaven on fire.....fallen angels
prophet will destroy the heaven's door
people cry the devil is smiling no more change
now! It's the only way.........
People are in big confusion
they say... it's not real, it's an illusion
satan has made his conclusion
he's waiting and prepare the war
The lyrics to Thunderstorm's song The Prophecy describe the struggle between good and evil, with Satan preparing for war and humans being misled by liars and dark desires. The song suggests that fallen angels will set heaven on fire and the prophet will destroy its door, and that the only way for people to escape Satan's plan is to change their ways. Throughout the song, the lyrics convey a sense of urgency, with the repetition of the lines "People are in big confusion" and "Satan has made his conclusion" emphasizing the gravity of the situation.
The overall message of the song seems to be that humanity is at a crossroads and must choose whether to follow God or Satan. The angel is described as the winner of the war, implying that there is hope for salvation if people turn to God. However, the lyrics also suggest that this decision is not easy, as humans are seen as being slaves to their dreams and dark desires.
In terms of the song's structure, the repetition of the opening lines serves to create a sense of unease and draw the listener in. The use of vivid imagery, such as the description of fallen angels setting heaven on fire, also adds to the song's dark and foreboding tone.
Overall, The Prophecy is a powerful song that explores deep themes of morality and spirituality.
