Late one night I was fixin' to fight A dirty hustler tryin' to cop my $$$ When from behind a whiskey bottle Cracked me then I hit the floor Barely alive I could feel him drive A black needle in to draw my blood With an evil grin he sang a mojo hymn And left me face down in the mud Dark angel gonna get me Lord, set me free I've been cursed by a voodoo hand Black magic all around Oh mama, pray for my soul I'm dying on this killing ground Cursed by a voodoo hand Death's needle pushing down Oh mama, pray for my soul I'm dying on this killing ground Well, I headed south by word of mouth To a shack down Louisiana way I meet another man with voodoo hands And this is what he had to say I feel it in my bones That your restless soul's Tormented by an evil curse But if this mojo man Got your blood in his hands No way the spell can be reversed Dark angel ain't gonna let me be I've been cursed by a voodoo hand Black magic all around Oh mama, pray for my soul I'm dying on this killing ground Cursed by a voodoo hand Death's needle pushing, pushing Oh mama, pray for my soul I'm dying on this killing ground Oh Lord, I'm dying Cursed by a voodoo hand Black magic all around Oh mama, pray for my soul I'm dying on this killing ground Cursed by a voodoo hand Death's needle pushing down Oh mama, pray for my soul I'm dying on this killing ground👽

man this song is pure evil and agressive, tkx harmonic minor modes

0:48 is the flu do goo he part

Ei nathilson @andin e freskho?

This is neoclassical metal at its finest!

What a voice.

I imagine Bach headbanging to the intro

I love everything about this song forever 💯❤🎸🤘

Johann Sebastian Bach be proud.

Voodoo Hand Is An Excellent Great Killer Straight Up Rock Song By Russell Allen And Totally Rocks It Needs To Be Fully Cranked Up All The Way To Full Maximum Volume.

Passing through the void The darkes grand illusion Chaos is riding on the wind Destroyed in agony They create a maddened lair Summon all to heed their cry Innocence fading away - the dying eyes of the prey Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding All out fate in the night Tempt in sin Shadows then begin to Gather the souls they hold within Victims of desire Pestilence of their invasion Forms then take on evil waves Paralyze, victimize The shadows fall and enter fast from the sky - (from the sky) Summon all to heed their cry Innocence fading away - the dying eyes of the prey Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding All out fate in the night Tempt in sin Shadows then begin to Gather the souls they hold within I've betrayed - slowly fade I repent my inner plea I've denied - sanctified Cannont hide from this monstrosity I'm immersed in a curse Of this jaded imagery Realize that your cries Only jeapordize this legacy Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding All out fate in the night Tempt in sin Shadows then begin to Gather the souls they hold within Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding All out fate in the night Tempt in sin Shadows then begin to Gather the souls they hold within

Discovered this on Spotify. Holy shit man this is my new favorite song! Russel Allen has been in so many projects, of course he had to have had a solo album! This is amazing!

I'm trying to figure out who the fuck everyone is talking to. The old YT system got these comments all over the place

Credo

Best song on the album, and possibly the best song from Russell Allen and Sym X together.

I love the C. P. E. Bach reference in this song. Carl Bach(don't forget Master Johann) and Michael Romeo are the supreme overlords!

If I had a theme song, this would be it

They never overcome this early stuff, by the Gods, could you bring back this Neoclassical stuff and not shitty modern SX metalcore crap, this is fvcking great! \m/

wow what a great piece of music.

best of best music!

4:06 Damn, that was brilliant

nice

Cool

Great song

this was the first song i heard from them and in the process i knew it i gonna like them, top ten here.

This album holds up very good.

I saw these guys live a while ago at Jaxx Nightclub, best show of my life. Recently they were playing at the Fillmore in Silver Spring which I sadly missed.

amazing song

OMG! THEY COPIED SOLFRELUDIO "DELTA"!

Better than the book.

2:14 fuck, that´s great

Damn I love this song! It´s superb! Russell Allen has a godly voice <3 and Romeo on the guitar <3

マイコーロメオ素敵

I DID see SX and DT in the the same gig, in Newport, Wales. I wanted to leave during DT. They were fucking awful.

I've seen Symphony X & Dream Theater live (Separately of course, although that would be an insane fucking show). I would have to raise my horns for Symphony way higher than Dream Theater... FUCKING MICHAEL ROMEO.

I meant the image used for this video. The original album cover is different, mine was just concept art based on the album. Thanks, though :)

I think they would have contacted you before using it..especially when they named an album based on the picture.

So Great!!!

Good likee SOngs

I like both this AND Dragonforce. Fuck the haters.

And Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach influences.Of course it's still good.

The music is just okay...it's not Symphony X that's for sure. Still the best vocalist in modern metal though, even with no music behind him.

whats the piece called at 0:28?? i know its bach or somethingg

Yes, and Iron Maiden is a great band who signed their name on the metal history.

who is dragonforce? you mean studioforce?

Castlevania Influences. Of course its good.

funny you see it that way ~ Petrucci is well known to write solos he can't play, and then practice them until he can as a way of challenging himself. Which is all well and good but if I had to choose between them, I'd go with Romeo without a second thought. Malmsteen was an Idol of mine, when I was 15 ~ he is EXTREMELY stale an formulaic. They BOTH blow him out of the water ~ but again, thats just my opinion

That goes without saying.

true enough. i spent a day on that one xD the satellite 15 solo too.. dave murray is a boss.
