LYRICS
In humid mold, Troll sits alone—
No friend or kin to call his own.
Troll gnaws on skins;
Raw shanks and shins;
Rips meat from reeking dragon bone.
His reeking dragon bone.

With laughter deep and throaty groan,
He rises from his seat of stone
From darkened cave
A bloodlust crave
Set loose upon the hills to roam,
Far on the hills to roam.

Snap go the bones (Snap! Snap!)
Crunch go the teeth! (Crunch! Crunch!)
Troll cracking spines (Crack! Crack!)
Beneath his feet! (Crunch! Crunch!)

Now the battle horn has blown,
From final fight he has been shown
To darkened cave
A bloodless grave
He sits with heart, a hardened stone.
His heart of hardened stone.

In humid mold, Troll sits alone—
Rips meat from reeking dragon bone.
Troll gnaws on skins;
Raw shanks and shins;
No friend or kin to call his own.
No friend to call his own.

Snap go the bones (Snap! Snap!)
Crunch go the teeth! (Crunch! Crunch!)
Troll cracking spines (Crack! Crack!)
Beneath his feet! (Crunch! Crunch!)

Snap go the bones (Snap! Snap!)
Crunch go the teeth! (Crunch! Crunch!)
Troll cracking spines (Crack! Crack!)
Beneath his feet! (Crunch! Crunch!)

Troll turns foe flesh to meat.

[SanityEclipse]

Jens is a literal primordial monster, never heard anyone sound like him

[PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

It sounds like listening to an orchestra scrambled by Meshuggah 🤘🎼🤘

[DankWolf]

now I want a LOTR-themed Meshuggah album 😂

[metalbears]

Its absolutely fucking We need....NEED a whole album. Who ever thought of this is a fucking genius

[richardwinchester]

I kept waiting for “When there’s a Whip “whakow” there is a way! We don’t want to go to war today but the man with the whip says nay

[codysmith]

This has no business going this hard and I'm here for it... And Season 2 of Rings of Power... LFG!!

[mrmaiden]

I swear all this snap and crunch is the theme tune to me getting out of bed in the morning.

[whoshoo]

Bear compsing death metal for lotr : we do a little trolling

[Ion]

The best metal vocalist ever on an epic orchestral track?! I demand more!

[mithical]

New workout song. This is going to epic in context. I imagine they will cut the vocals in scene but I hope at least a little stays in. Hoping Damrod gets to be the one to hold a certain banner, if he survives the siege

[juddrizzo]

Oh my God, it would be awesome. If movies combined symphonic music a lot of heavy guitars and lots of heavy vocals. That would be incredible.

[BoaeCH]

Genius move right there ❤ Someone needs a raise for this !

[TheIronParasite]

Is orchestrated mountain troll metal a genre?

[mephistopheles-udtd]

This would have been elevated to Graham's number of awesomeness if it was in Black Speech.

[liamodynsky]

FUCK YES. This is what I've been saying; if you're not gonna care about the lore anyways then why the hell not have fun with it and make it your own!!!

[beardybro]

GOD of War+Meshuggah+Drum machine Hoglan+LOTR= PURE FIRE🔥

[RussianSevereWeatherVideos]

Bear McCreary shows his genius once again! Love those taikos <333

[tysoncarpenter]

This is something different I like it!!

[eclipserecords]

The lyrics here are awesome! "Snap go the bones... Crunch go the teeth... CRUNCH CRUNCH"

[HeatherJones-jrpm]

Good stuff! My German/Swede is rockin this!
