🔥 This is no simple playlist. This is a glimpse into the flame.

Forged in Shadow · Broken by Fate is a curated selection of five chapters from the upcoming 17-track concept album Book One, a mythic metal saga inspired by the legends of Middle-earth.

Each chapter pairs a cinematic spoken-word prelude with a full-length hybrid metal composition, fusing symphonic power, narrative depth, and emotional weight.

These songs trace the forging of the One Ring, the burden it places on its bearer, the formation of the Fellowship—and the quiet unraveling of everything they hoped to preserve.

Included Chapters:
	•	Forged in Shadow – The Ring is born in fire
	•	Shattered Path – The halfling feels the weight of the burden
	•	Oathforged – The Fellowship is formed
	•	The Hunger Between Us – The Son of Gondor begins to question the path
	•	Into the East – The Fellowship fractures. One walks alone—yet not truly alone

🔥 Five chapters. Ten tracks. The full story arrives 11/07/25.

Mythrend Singles (Forged in Shadow, Broken by Fate)

Shhh...

🔥 Interlude I - Forged in Shadow
The tale begins in shadow and fire, as a golden ring is secretly forged to rule all others. This prologue sets the stage for the coming struggle, where oaths, power, and betrayal shape the fate of the world.

Interlude I

⚔️ Interlude IV - Fractured Path
The burden of the Ring grows heavier, pressing down with every step. Shadows lengthen, and doubt seeps into the journey, as the path ahead bends beneath the weight of its power.

Interlude IV

⚔️ Interlude VII – Oathforged
In the wake of peril, a vow is sworn. Voices from every corner of the realm gather, binding themselves to a single purpose. Hope is kindled in unity, though the shadow looms ever nearer.

Interlude VII

Forged in Shadow (Bound by Fire)

One will. One flame. One chain.

Beneath the mountain, 
blood and ash 
The hammer fell, 
the world was lashed 
Not made by gods — but shaped by need 
The fire drank. 
The world would bleed 

One voice spoke 
the death of light 
A ring of gold, a hand of blight 
The shape was simple, smooth and clean 
But held within — a will unseen ⸻ 

Forged in shadow! 
Bound by fire! 
Born to rule, 

to twist, 
and re-wire! 

Not a gift — a hunger fed! 
Not a crown — a voice of dread⸻ 

No soul inside, just echo’s claim 
The world now bends to a single name 
Not love, not law, not rightful reign 
Just silence burned into a chain 

The kings knelt low, the strong went blind
And even gods could not unwind 
What fire built, what dark designed 
A golden curse, a hollow spine ⸻ 

Forged in shadow! 
Bound by fire! 
Born to rule, to twist, and re-wire! 
Not a gift — a hunger fed! 
Not a crown — a voice of dread!⸻ 

One will… 
One ring… 
One eye… 
One king… 
One fall… 
One flame… 
One world… 
One name… 
One will… 
One ring… 
One eye… 
One king… 
One fall… 
One flame… 
One world… 
One name… ⸻ 

It wakes.

Forged in Shadow (Bound by Fire)

Into to the East

One road, two shadows 
No map, no crown, 
no turning back

The trees don't speak our names 
The sky won't hold the flame
Every step is one more scar
And the stars feel twice as far

No songs behind us now
No sword to show us how
Just a ring, a breath, a vow 
And a friend who won't let me bow

Into the east
No light, no rest
Ash on our skin
Fire in our chest
We walk the line, we bear the mark We carry the world into the dark

He said I shouldn't go alone 
I said I have no choice
He stepped through the water anyway 
And I heard my own voice
We've nothing left to follow 
Just the silence and the flame

But if we break beneath it
Let them never speak our names

Into the east
No light, no rest
Ash on our skin
Fire in our chest
We walk the line, we bear the mark We carry the world into the dark
We don't go back 
We don't go back

The fire walks, the fire speaks
We hold the path that no one seeks

Into the east
The silence grows
But still we move
Though no one knows
We walk as one 
Though time forgets

We carry

Into the East

“Fractured Path” marks the first cracks in the journey. After the group departs safety, shadows begin to close in and the Ring’s presence weighs heavier with each step. 

This is not yet open conflict, but the unraveling has begun—inside the heart of the one who carries the burden.

The song follows that inner descent: isolation, paranoia, and the feeling of being cut off even while surrounded by others. 

The riffs grind like footsteps on stony ground, the melodies twist with doubt, and the atmosphere collapses into silence—echoing the haunting realization that this path may be one the hero must walk alone.

This track stands as both a warning and a prelude, a moment where fate bends but does not yet break.

Fractured Path

Zemandan's Midnight Dissonance is a dark, cinematic electronic track blending dubstep and psytrance elements. Inspired by the melody of the great Yasmena’s Sar Mast. Midnight Dissonance reimagines the haunting vocal line entirely with layered synths, creating a hypnotic and immersive instrumental experience. The track delivers analog warmth and futuristic precision piece making it an epic Zemandan journey for fans of dark, emotional, and hypnotic electronic music.

Hindsight Dissonance - (Sar Mast)

A long story short - Mother died, long-term sickness (years ago) - made this song immediately after her passing.

Had lost the original files, now – found one decent sounding instrumental file and combined that with isolated vocal track, timing was different - so had to work on that a bit.

This is our second song... made 2020. 

Mastered using SoundCloud - Aurora.

LYRICS

when this life takes its toll,
you find yourself all alone
now you fight, the fight of your life
now you fight, it’s your time
your time, your time… your time…
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades
yesterday is the past – only memories remain
yesterday is the past – only memories remain
burden that you carried brings the pain
burden that you carried brings the pain
burden that you carried brings the pain
why, why, why
WHY……………..
time after time,
fear after fear,
fight after fight
we leave our goodbyes
time after time,
fear after fear,
fight after fight,
pain that was yours,
now its mine
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades…. I stay

Until it fades

Until it Fades - rerelease (2020) - Lyrics

I’ve seen your fires burning

“Grooving to your heart” Is a romantic, playful electronic song, simply about How much I love my intimate moments with my partner and when we lay in bed together. Enjoying a cuddle/snuggle and feeling her warmth. I love feeling her heart beat and it’s definitely my safe place and what I cherish! ❤️ The thump thump thump inside her chest certainly has been grooving 💃 🎶
