In any case, glorifying heavy metal's prototypical qualities is exactly what the Sword is all about, and their 2006 debut, Age of Winters, sees them joining California's High on Fire, Sweden's Witchcraft, and Australia's Wolfmother (to name but a few) at the forefront of what's gradually become known in the mid-'00s as the "heritage".

Freya" is a song by American heavy metal band The Sword. Written by the band and produced by vocalist and guitarist John D. Cronise, it is featured on the band's 2006 debut studio album Age of Winters. In addition to being released as the only single from the album on September 4, 2007, "Freya" was featured as a playable track on the video game Guitar Hero II, released in November 2006.

Sound - 9 The Sword sound is fairly simple, metallic power chords that sound as if they are going to implode, matching bass riffs, and drums that keep the whole groove together. The vocals are a haunting drone weaving tales of bloody battles, goddesses, wolves, pretty much anything fantasy/medievel related. Their biggest influence is (if you haven't geussed already) Black Sabbath, but unlike some of their peers in the stoner metal/rock genre they aren't as tongue-in-cheek about who influences them as artists. Lyrics - 8 The lyrics in Age Of Winters are very good. Fantasy tales of medievel battles and mythology run rampant on this album.

Next to the boombox is a copy of Age of Winters, the new album by Austin retro-doom metalheads, The Sword. EXAMINE THE CD The front cover of the CD features art by Conrad Keely of And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead, depicting a fantasy-art painting of a nymphet clutching a sword, whilst surrounded by imagery of knights and magic icons. PUT CD IN THE BOOMBOX The CD is now in the boombox. KEEP LISTENING Though the album continues at a steady volume and pace, the guitar work becomes fancier on The Horned Goddess, the first minute or so of which contains some of the most righteous, harmonized soloing you’ve heard in quite some time. BANG HEAD You start to swing your head around like a maniac.

The discography of The Sword, an American heavy metal band, consists of five studio albums, one live album, one compilation album, two extended plays (EPs), one box set, twelve singles and ten music videos. Originally formed in Austin, Texas in 2003 by vocalist and guitarist John D.
