METAL GROTTO EPISODE 55:
“WICKED WALPURGISNACHT OCCULT ROCK SPECIAL”
Walpurgisnacht is upon us once again, and this week, DJ Warlock Hell On Wheels brings back the tradition of Occult Rock shows for the occasion.With the exception of Type O Negative’s cover of Black Sabbath, all of the songs included fit the genre.
Upon the Brocken, Darkly
The night grows darker than normal on this most unholy of nights
We, children of the Devil’s fane do gather at the Brocken in reverence and revelry
Assembled, as though an unholy orchestra, we raise our hands, and give the sign
The call-and-response of the Infernal Names reverberates upon the air
A rumble of thunder and peal upon peal of Luciferian lightning rend the sky
The High Priest deftly leads the rite as the rain begins to drench the earth, never faltering, this erstwhile maestro, conducting through this tempest
As the Black Mass concludes, the storm fades and the air grows still, though the dark shadows still seem to move
Upon the Brocken darkly, Satan smiles
