Song written by Elize Ryd, Olof Mörck, produced by Jacob Hansen, recorded at Hansen Studios, Denmark

LYRICS:
Voices of the Matriarch
A hierarchy outside
Of the status quo
Tormented legions feast
Upon the innocent, entrench the control

The choice of condemnation
Breeds an army of accursed
The dominion will grow
Codified in the circle
So let it be known
She will be enthroned

Watch her ascend
Concede unto her
And now you relent
For she has crossed the oceans of time
Damnation you'll find

Damnation Flame
Burning us down
When we're already bound
And the earth is bleeding
The mark of The One
In the shape of a ghoul
In the pouring rain
See what She wrote
Upon the wall
I'm a true believer
Damnation Flame

Ruled across the centuries
The heresy our mark on the fevered soul
Unearthly specters rise
And a frantic danse macabre you behold

Blackened inquisition
Fall to witchery
A thrall, and all that you sold
Premonition untold
Was your immortal soul
Now you shall behold

Lifeblood is spent
Surrender to her
Now you repent
Her bloodline is damnation divine
Damnation you'll find

Damnation Flame
Burning us down
When we're already bound
And the earth is bleeding
The mark of The One
In the shape of a ghoul
In the pouring rain
See what She wrote
Upon the wall
I'm a true believer
Damnation Flame

Entwine the pain
You're stigmatised
Temerity from dusk to sunrise
Embrace the flame
In dusk reside
Mortality a frailty denied

Watch her ascend
Concede unto her
And now you relent
Her bloodline is damnation divine

Damnation Flame
Burning us down
When we're already bound
And the earth is bleeding
The mark of The One
In the shape of a ghoul
In the pouring rain
See what She wrote
Upon the wall
I'm a true believer
Damnation Flame

Congrats to Mikael for joining the band! Well done on the new song and video :)

[dragonforce]

Still loving this song. Looking forward to touring with Amaranthe :)

[legendarycat]

Elize as a dancing vampire queen is exactly what I needed in my life

[thechurchofmoomin]

Real vampires don’t sparkle. They make metal music. I love whoever gets my reference. Good job, Amaranthe!

[miracleofsound]

Love the high energy! Super catchy chorus too 🤘

[bretrhymer]

This band is wild. Just discovered them a month ago. These guys and Beast in Black are like Euro dance, 80s glam, and modern awesomeness thrown in a blender. I am here for it.

[FatGuyReviews.]

I was really sad when Henrik parted ways but Mikael sounds amazing!

Amaranthe is BACK!

[MrIronman]

Metal Gothic, Horror, Dancecoreografie, Tanz der Vampiere Flair und klingt gut. Ein Meisterwerk ! Gibt es eigentlich einen Oscar für Musikvideos ? Der gehört nominiert.

[polecat]

Following Olof on social media for years now, I think it was way overdue for Amaranthe to do a video with this theme. Olof will always look to me like some kind of count or royal member from some obscure European family. I have to also add that this may be one of the most creative ways to welcome a new member. And the choreography was just a super good cherry on top, *chef kiss*. I loved this!

[Phoenix_]

I was very worried I'd be disappointed by the legendary Henrik's replacement, but in the end the new generation is right up there and it's super cool! 🔥

The song is amazing, I love this rather dark atmosphere as with the song Archangel!

Bravo and welcome to Mikael Sehlin! This new adventure is going to be mythical! 🤘

[mercy]

I'm gonna miss Henrik, but I get why he left. Can't blame him. Family is important. The new growler is definitely filling the shoes well. Looking forward to hearing more of him. 😊

I’ve always thought that Elize was beautiful since Nexus came out which is when I found them, but how does she keep getting more beautiful as time goes? But that aside this sound is everything I’ve wanted from Amaranthe and this is an amazing musicianship and video production. Vocal it was amazing as well ready for the new era of Amaranthe

[BadMoonHorrors]

This checked all my boxes (even 'the hot vampire ladys doing choreographed dance routine' one)! 🤘🦇
And thank you for checking all those coffins until you've found Mikael.

[TheDustyForest]

really enjoyed how balanced the three vocalists were in this song

[salvah.l.]

Amaranthe meets Powerwolf! Congrats for this killer track and welcome home, Mikael! By the way… is there anything sexier than a vampire Elize? ❤

[Itzz-txm]

It’s like Amaranthe meets Nightwish meets Battle Beast. I love it!!🔥

[allanmalloy]

Mikael's highs are absolutely what this band needed.

[michalreznicek]

Woow. What a blast!. You are more than 10 years in my life and you still keep surprising me. I cannot describe how much I like this and everything you´ve ever created. One of your best videos and Mikael seems to fit well and I cannot wait for more songs + CD soon. Long life to Amaranthe <3. You never disappoint.

[lesmty]

Excelent song, and the video matches perfectly! Those fresh, gothic keyboard arrangements, bold and AWESOME!!!! 7 albums later Amaranthe keeps surprising us. Thank you, guys 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[cambridgeport]

I love that wolf howl at the beginning of the song. And that harpsichord...it's an ethereal touch from out of nowhere.
