Ταξτε μου..... τι σας εχω, τι σας εχω. Επανακυκλοφορια SORTILEGE ντεμπουτου EP.

When French heavy metal band SORTILÈGE formed in 1981, they were following the example of their fellow countrymen Trust. Musically however, the band from the suburbs of Paris took their musical approach one step further, forging an amalgam of true heavy metal without being influenced by punk rock (like the early Trust), blues rock (Ganafoul) or progressive rock (Océan). “Yes, absolutely,” confirms guitarist and founding member Didier Demajean today, “our influences were mainly hard rock bands, the ones we were covering at the time with Blood Wave.” Blood Wave were the forerunners of SORTILÈGE, playing songs by Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Rainbow, AC/DC, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Kiss, and of course Trust.
According to Didier Demajean, apart from pioneers Trust and SORTILÈGE, France had a whole lot of new and interesting metal bands in the early eighties: “I remember groups like H-Bomb, Satan Jokers, ADX, Vulcain, Blasphème, Warning, Demon Eyes etc. There really was a craze, we had a huge desire to express ourselves. It was a very creative period for French hard rock.”
Apart from Didier Demajean on guitar, the first stable line-up of SORTILÈGE consisted of Christian Augustin (“Zouille”) on vocals, Daniel Lapp on bass Jean-Philippe Dumont, aka Bob Snake, behind the drum kit and Stéphane Dumont on second guitar.
When it was time to search for a label, however, the band had to look outside their home country, as Didier expresses today: “At the time, no French label wanted to sign us. Our manager got in touch with a number of international labels and we chose the Dutch Rave-On Records label, which offered us the best conditions for our first EP.”
The mentioned self-titled EP was issued in 1983 and consisted of five original compositions: “Amazone”, “Progéniture Destructrice”, Gladiateur”, “Sortilège” and “Bourreau”. “We were young musicians, without much experience, but we had the desire and the energy of our youth, all that is felt in the album,” sums up Didier today. “The songs are raw, the sound is direct, and the alchemy between Stéphane's compositions and Christian’s melodies and lyrics have touched the hearts of teenagers of our generation. The vocals, the riffs, the solos and the way of playing on this EP, have anchored our musical identity in the public mind.”
The High Roller edition of »Sortilège« also contains five bonus tracks: “Esclave De La Mort” and “Reine De Sabbat” from the 1981 demo, as well as English versions of three original tracks off the EP (“The Amazon Warriors”, “Gladiator” and “Blade Killer”).



All tracks mastered by Patrick W. Engel at TEMPLE OF DISHARMONY in September 2022.

It's cold down my back
It keeps you from sleeping
You don't know where it comes from
He caresses your nights
From its reddened wings
By the blood of humans

And when suddenly his claws
Close around your body
Burning your tomorrows
He will follow from afar
The agony of the procession
Who takes your destiny

Spell, Spell
Spell, Spell

Sitting on your grave
From its gaping mouth
He will spit on your soul
Sacrificed by your people on the altar of death
He will throw you into the flames

And in your beautiful fire
You look at the wizard
Who enjoys and who swoons
Now you know his name
You know what his name is
It's called Sortilège

Spell, Spell
Spell, Spell

βαριεσαι να πατησεις τα κουμπακια πασακα μου;

Κάνει κρύο στην πλάτη μου
Σε εμποδίζει να κοιμηθείς
Δεν ξέρεις από πού προέρχεται
Χαϊδεύει τα βράδια σου
Από τα κατακόκκινα φτερά του
Με το αίμα των ανθρώπων

Και όταν ξαφνικά τα νύχια του
Κλείστε γύρω από το σώμα σας
Καίει το αύριο σας
Θα ακολουθήσει από μακριά
Η αγωνία της πομπής
Ποιος παίρνει τη μοίρα σου

Ξόρκι, Ξόρκι
Ξόρκι, Ξόρκι

Καθισμένος στον τάφο σου
Από το ανοιχτό στόμα του
Θα σου φτύσει την ψυχή
Θυσιάστηκε από τον λαό σου στο βωμό του θανάτου
Θα σε ρίξει στις φλόγες

Και στην όμορφη φωτιά σου
Κοιτάς τον μάγο
Ποιος απολαμβάνει και ποιος λιποθυμά
Τώρα ξέρετε το όνομά του
Ξέρεις πώς είναι το όνομά του
Λέγεται Sortilège

Ξόρκι, Ξόρκι
Ξόρκι, Ξόρκι

Μου αρέσει που τον πήρες στα σοβαρά

[CountRaven]

Κάνει κρύο στην πλάτη μου
Σε εμποδίζει να κοιμηθείς

Το έχω ακούσει από γκόμενα ...αλλά για πόδια

Πνίγηκα με τον καπνό και τώρα φτερνίζομαι.

Υγ. Το τόπικ έχει πάρει την τροπή που πρέπει.
