Lyrics: Tale as old as time Misguided humankind Wasted years devising Self-destruction of our own design
Nuclear deliverance We stand on the edge of a knife Our terrestrial prison Will be the grave of all life
Abandoned by the gods We forged a legacy of war Atrocities unnumbered Mutual destruction assured In the wake of decimation, the pages of history burn
Spent our days casting stones Balancing kingdoms on a pile of bones Menacing fate, our time has come Earth in the shadow of a dying sun No escape for mankind, No sign of the dawn
No sign of the dawn, hand has been drawn! For the mortal world there is no sign of the dawn!
Now the dust has set, eternal winter begun Not a soul is left to see the glory of the rising sun Where once there was life, now there is none
Spent our days casting stones Balancing kingdoms on a pile of bones Menacing fate, our time has come Earth in the shadow of a dying sun No escape for mankind, no sign of the dawn
No sign of the dawn, hand has been drawn! For the mortal world there is no sign of the dawn! No sign of the dawn, No sign of the dawn! For the mortal world there is no sign of the dawn No sign of the dawn, hand has been drawn For the mortal world, there is no sign of the...DAWN!
No story remains, no warning boon Only our civilization’s long forgotten tomb A barren world in memoriam of doom
Spent our days Casting stones Balancing kingdoms on a pile of bones Menacing fate, our time has come Earth in the shadow of a dying sun No escape for mankind, no sign of the dawn!
No sign of the dawn! No sign of the dawn! For the mortal world there is no sign of the dawn! No sign of the dawn, hand has been drawn For the mortal world there is no sign of the dawn.

Everlasting, awakened abomination The maelstrom that devours all of trembling creation Opens wide its spiral maw
Guiding fire Steel me against all destruction From wisdom let chaos crawl No force of evil can break my resolve I will outlast them all
Trial by chaos! bound for glory, my purpose is one Trial by chaos! Endure the fury or fall to oblivion
Unafraid I'll never fall When chaos reigns You’ll find me still standing tall
I vow to stand triumphant, let courage bind my bones In this should I fail, my soul will turn to stone And so I descend deep into the unknown Twisting through the darkness with this ancient formless foe
Trial by chaos! bound for glory, my purpose is one Trial by chaos! Endure the fury or fall to oblivion
Unafraid I’ll never fall When chaos reigns You’ll find me still standing tallRAIDER - NEW DOMINION (NEW SINGLE 2023)Raider2023-03-01 | THE FINAL SINGLE FROM OUR UPCOMING RECORD "TRIAL BY CHAOS" ALBUM PREORDER & MERCH: raiderofficial.bandcamp.com

LYRICS: Ancient world now obsolete leviathan circles beneath Indifference clouds once watchful eyes to the rising of this beast It smells the blood of human vice To which our minds are sacrificed Blessed be modernity; subjugation sanctified
All hope of freedom failed New world beyond the pale Final act of betrayal: sword laid upon the scale
Domination born of hate Commandeered fate: initiate
From cataclysm fate is forced upon a new collision course Thundering toward serfdom under abiotic overlords Automatons surveil us all, engage the final protocol Pulverize defiance until the revolution falls
Will you come take a stand? Or your place with the damned? Impact is imminent!
Brace for a state-of-the-art dark age All systems set to force-assimilate We are prisoners of a new dominion over the human race ...One we cannot escape.
Brace for a state-of-the-art dark age One we may never escape... Eternal prisoners of a new dominion over the human race One day, when the last of indifference is spent When fury drives our great dissent We may seize back fate, but until that day Impact is imminentRAIDER - RITE OF CONQUEST (NEW SINGLE 2023)Raider2023-01-25 | When there is no blood left to spill on earth, humanity will turn its insatiable thirst for power...to the stars

LYRICS: One hundred thousand A.D., dreadnought destroyer in lead Set a course for target Alpha: Proxima Centauri B Under the guise of exploration, we spin a new treachery Absolute domination of every galaxy
To your skies we turn a covetous eye Last ultimatum: Surrender or die! Rhyming the steps of our forebears’ genocidal legacy All will bow to the mighty united humanity Centurion superhuman sentinels March to the war drum of the conqueror’s call
Forward to combat, great sapiens war machine From star to burning star, we reap Come baptize your brow in the blood of alien kings Conquering all worlds in the cosmic deep
Godlike descendants Bionic brains fueled by primal malevolence
Forward to combat, great sapiens war machine From star to burning star, we reap Come baptize your brow in the blood of alien kings Conquering all worlds in the cosmic deep
So goes our ominous aim to colonize, conquer, and breed Through ritual violence the cancerous cult anthropocene Our insatiable hunger for power polluting the soul like disease Satisfied by only total galactic supremacy
Colonize, conquer, and breed For all time the sapiens creed Colonize, conquer, and breed For all time the sapiens creed...RAIDER - TRIAL BY CHAOS (NEW SINGLE 2022)Raider2022-12-14 | THE TITLE TRACK FROM OUR UPCOMING RECORD "TRIAL BY CHAOS" ALBUM PREORDER & MERCH: raiderofficial.bandcamp.com

Lyrics: Commence the end of days Let the sacred sovereign fall March on the heavens with furious rage come and heed our heathen call!
I am a slave to no creator Allegiant to no holy law Forged my own path, nothing left in my wake But the blackened bones of the gods!
Violent irreverence of a forsaken bond Undivine abomination, malevolent spawn Damned from the dawn!
Forever the heathen wanderer Bound for annihilation Hunted by shadow and guided by flame All across the endless aeons
Beholden to no destiny Masters, I have none Bound by no fate but the one I create Your prophecy; ever undone
Vile subjugation from our very first breath Robbed of our honour for a prison of flesh Bonded by death Left to the shadows, our world destroyed We must invoke the fire, onward we ride Into the void!
Vile degradation of a forgotten creed Trapped in mindless devotion to their self-righteous greed Silence and sorrow are all that they reap The barren tomorrows of a long rotten seed
Forever the heathen wanderer Bound for annihilation Hunted by shadow and guided by flame All across the endless aeons
Beholden to no destiny Masters, I have none Bound by no fate but the one I create Your prophecy; ever undone
You’re prophecy; ever undone!RAIDER - URGE TO KILL (Official EP Stream 2018)Raider2019-04-24 | Track Listing: 1. Phlebotomized 2. Nebulous 3. Urge to Kill
