  1. Arctic Wolves
  Followed by a predatory beast
 Wolf tracks in the snow
 I know that the wolves are near
 
 Wolf fangs stained with blood
 Saliva drips a crimson tear
 Carnivores of the North
 Soon it will be time to feed
 
 Follow your predator instinct
 Wolf fang stained with blood
 Our enemies be food for the wolf
 
 Guardians of the North
 Protect the clans purity
 Preserve the pack territory
 All intruders are the prey to feed
 
 The howls in the moonlight
 The sound that scared the night
 
 Bring up the alpha males
 Let them lead the charge
 Sum up their racks
 Ravage like a platoon of tanks
 For arctic wolves fear no human being
 Come forth for the North
 All for the arctic legions
 Go for the throat
 Let blood drip onto the snow
 Scent of blood draws the others near
 
 Wolf bone chills the North wind
 Traditional songs after the feast
 Their howls inspire Vinlandic pride
 And the wolf became part of me
 
 Come forward alpha females
 Whelp for the pack and breed
 Disperse to the south
 And spread the arctic seed
 Multiply for race and species
 
 For arctic wolves fear no human being
 Come forth for the North
 All for the arctic legion
 Go for the throat
 Let blood drip onto the snow
 Scent of a kill draws the others near
 
 
 
  2. Imperial
  At the dawn of a new era
 At the end of the third great war
 Rising from the ashes of humanity
 The empire of storms
 The empire shall rise
 To feed the ambitions of the people
 As the emperor stands tall
 On a throne of skulls
 Of all those who have opposed him
 And met their fate at the end of the sword
 
 The empire shall rise
 As all the old kingdoms fall
 
 It's the rise of the northern empire
 The time has come as others before
 Break the peace and the treaties
 Let your voice be heard
 With bone and steel, sword and shield
 We raise our flags
 
 Legions of the storm
 Gather your armies to the south
 The southern borders lay open
 We must first crush the Christian empire
 
 Grasp the reigns of power
 Form the axis by which the world turns
 Expand the sphere of influence
 Finalize the Imperial Grand Strategy
 
 Mighty northern empire
 A mountain unto itself
 Stoke the fires of conquest
 Cleanse the world in it's purifying flames
 
 Command the reins of power
 Be the axis by which the world turns
 One spake to ignite the fire
 Let the world bend to our will
 
 
 
  3. Death and Honour
  Europe was burning
 Germany was at the height of its power
 A raiding force challenge the raging seas
 To execute Operation Jubilee
 Trained to assault in the light of day
 For one chance to face the enemy
 Naval squirmish fade hope for surprise
 On the beaches of Dieppe
 The enemy was waiting
 
 Landing at dawns first light
 Under intense Nazi fire
 Battalions stormed the flashing inferno of defence
 To fight the blazing bloody battle of Dieppe
 Send in the first wave of Canadians
 
 Your all going to die
 Death and Honour
 Strength and Pride
 They sacrificed their lives
 We salute you
 
 When shall their glory fade
 When face down floating in the waves
 The channel and the sands of Dieppe
 Have been honoured by the blood of Canadians
 
 For all the men that hit the beach
 On that fateful day
 Died in a blaze of glory
 Or surrendered with honour
 
 Truimph was not to be
 And would wait for us another day
 Some escaped the beach
 Many would never leave
 As a testimony to ferocity
 The sacrifice before glory
 And gallantry of Canadians
 
 
 
  4. The Cold Front
  Fortified defensive position
 On the cold front, holding the line
 Tranquility interrupted
 By an artillery barrage
 Winter blitz bombs fall from the sky
 They rocked, trembled, tremored and turned
 The earth
 Exhuming the bodies of the fallen
 And took the lives our comrades
 
 Shockwave scorched flesh falls from the bone
 Unearth, the rotten horrors of war
 The scourge set free
 Spreading plague and disease
 Corpse rats grow fat off dead flesh
 Trench rats stripped the flesh from the bone
 
 Cold steel and concrete
 Hedge hogs and dragons teeth
 Barbwire with trip wires
 Carbines and mixed landmines
 Caught within the crossfire
 Few survived the cold front
 
 High velocity 88 salvos
 Cold front equals ground zero
 Rocket volley arches through the sky
 Crashing down with rolling thunder
 
 As the enemy advanced on all fronts
 We stopped them cold in their tracks
 With fanatical resistance
 Resist them
 No retreat, no surrender
 Not one step back
 
 
 
  5. Divine Wind
  A typhoon brewed in the east
 As zeros take to the sky
 Formations come in waves
 Of men willing to die
 On a one way mission
 For the Emperor Showa
 Unleash the Suicide squads
 
 Ritual suicide, crash and burn, final strike
 Divine Wind
 
 Hordes gathered on the horizon
 With the rising sun to their backs
 Carried by the Winds of God
 Unwavering devotion
 Transcending life and death
 Unyielding allegiance
 Unleash the Suicide squards
 
 At high speed crash into the deck of a warship
 Spirit of dead comrades watch intently
 Ignite the fuel to detonate the bombs
 A final death roll will increase the death toll
 
 A strategy of must is master
 To pave the road to victory
 In order to eradicate the enemy
 Trade one life for many
 
 Hordes gathered on the horizon
 With the rising sun to their backs
 Carried by the Wind of God
 Never to return
 
 Vanguard of an avenging force
 Martyrs that accept the oath
 Samurai die by the code
 Thunder God crash and burn
 
 
 
  6. Frontal Assault
  Concealed in the forest, in the year 1944
 Panzer divisions are deployed ready to attack
 Mechanized formations committed to a great offensive
 Answer the fatherland's call
 Engage in a frontal assault
 
 In a shroud of December's fury
 Under cover of the Winters mist
 Forging men and machine to strike with an iron fist
 Infantry and war machines, smash through the enemy lines
 Into a steel storm of total war
 Engage in a frontal assault
 
 Surround them, destroy them, drive them back across the sea
 
 Tigers spearhead a blitzkrieg, infantry follow in their tracks
 Leveled cities and atrocities will bring the invaders to their knees
 Sound now a truimphant trumpet blast
 Choke on the bitter taste of defeat
 Victory is within our grasp
 Engage in a frontal assault
 
 
 
  7. A Call to Arms
  Like a raging wind
 We scorched the earth
 With a fist of steel
 We swept armies aside
 With hammers of fire
 Set the world ablaze
 In mighty bursts of flame
 Bombs fell from the sky
 
 By the Declaration of war
 We answered the call to arms
 
 For the glory of the Empire
 A dream that one day will be real
 
 The city streets in jubilee
 Parading for victory
 Hysteria the people cheer
 A deafening roar is all you hear
 
 Trumpet and fife
 Marching band lead the way with pipe
 Marching to the beat of the drum
 Chin up, eyes straight, with shouldered gun
 Fathers take their sons by the hand
 Marching off together into foreign lands
 Follow the beat of the drum
 There's a job to be done
 Embrace the call
 
 To hell with the cowards
 They run and hide
 Remembered are those who've fought and died
 Honoured ones who gave their lives
 Their names shall be written in stone
 Preserved for eternity
 The price of victory pays a heavy toll
 Freedom doesn't come cheap
 
 
 
  8. Northern Aggression
  Barricade the gates
 For the true northmen come
 Buckle under the weight
 By the coming of the storm
 When you realize
 You're the cause of these troubled times
 You'll get your just deserves
 For your treachery you pay ten fold
 
 When you realize
 You still the cause of these troubled times
 What choice were we given?
 Capitulate or be destroyed
 
 Bow down before the aggressor
 Brought to your knees, now beg
 Show not mercy but violence
 Succumb to the coming storm
 
 Five times invaded
 Five times you failed
 To pluck that jewel from the northern crown
 You, so many in number
 We, so many in few
 Now we march to the gates of your capital
 
 White flags are waving
 A city incinerated
 The wrath brought down by the aggressor
 Women and children are screaming
 You brought this war to us
 Throw up your hands and surrender
 
 1812, I still remember
 That burning image in my mind
 As we set your capital to the torch
 
 
 
  9. Between the Pincers
