New Osiris (Egypt) song, EP 2017-07-25 by BallsToTheWall | 2 Comments | Long-defunct Egyptian metal band Osiris haveposted their first new song in 20 years. The gloriously bombastic track "Forgotten Stones of Time" can be heard below.
According to the Bandcamp, the song is a single from a forthcoming EP, drawing a parallel from slaves that built the ancient pyramids to modern-day workers being crippled by debt:
This track is about slavery in ancient Egypt and their denial to time.
Slaves are forgotten.
Their existence is lost within time and their names erased for eternity. Although the slaves did the hard labor to build the monuments that glorified once a leading civilization, nobody remembers the prisoners of war, the locals in debt or the criminals deemed to a lifetime of atonement, who were made into slaves.
We can draw an analogy between slavery in ancient Egypt and modern day workers who are inevitably tied to a lifetime of payments. After they cease to exist, modern day workers will follow the same fate as the forgotten slaves of ancient Egypt as far as time is concerned.
