Young man you're in such a rush, focus, unlearn Concentrate, this energy flows through us, we are luminous It surrounds, it binds us, penetrates, it's between you and me Between the rock and the tree and the ship, it's between you and me Remember your failure

prepare for ground assault on the snow AT-AT Snow-speeder melee Yavin proves you're defeatable You'll never take us without a fight Blasters won't work Armour too thick Gotta think, gotta think Tow cables just might work! Metal beasts, bring 'em down One by one, we'll take them out Go round, and round To the fucking ground You'll never take us without a fight Fight this ground assault on the snow AT-AT Snow speeder melee You're not invincible

Dark Side 02:18
Give in (fear) Give in (anger) Give in (hate) Give in give in give in give in give in Give in (darkness) Give in (power) Give in (empire) Give yourself to the Dark side!
5.
It is a period of civil war Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base have won their first victory against the evil Empire. Our spies stole the secret plans to the ultimate weapon, a Death Star to destroy an entire planet... It is a dark time for the Rebellion Imperial troops persue our forces across the galaxy The evil lord, obsessed, has dispatched thousands of probes into the far reaches of space... In secret, the empire constructs another new armored space station even more powerful than the first dreaded Death Star this ultimate weapon will spell certain doom for all rebels struggling to restore freedom to the galaxy...

Death Mark 02:50
Death mark The walls are closing in Not an easy thing to live with Death mark The walls are closing in In more ways than one Just trying to stay alive Everyday he lives with a Death mark The walls are closing in Not an easy thing to live with Death mark Dark forces closing in Gotta stay point 5 past light speed Even if it means leaving you behind And he will not give in Death mark (the walls are closing in)
8.
Attack positions In the battle of Yavin Along this trench we fly Rogue squadron Will not falter Along this trench we fly Stay on target All or nothing In a battle for freedom Along this trench we fly Chain reaction Destroy this terror Along this trench we fly Our lives meant nothing 'til now
9.
In time you will call me master Oh i'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive Strike me down with all your hatred and your journey to the dark side will be complete Your fleet is lost and your friends on the Endor moon will not survive If you will not be turned, you will be destroyed You will pay the price for your lack of vision It is unavoidable, it is your destiny Young fool; only at the end do you understand
10.
Twin Suns 03:39
Oh Tatooine, how long I've known you Oh my home, how i've outgrown you The endless Dune Sea No respite from the dust and the sand - there's nothing here for me All my dreams lie in between the twin suns of Tatooine, and all my friends, have left to join the academy - they've gone and joined, the Rebellion
11.
You've got some ideas that i don't like When it comes down to it, it's the dark versus the light Tighten your grip and we slip through your fingers Your rules don't work for us, it's true Good and evil A balanced force Rebel upheaval It's a clear choice You've got some ideas that i don't like When it comes down to it, it's the dark versus the light Tighten your grip and we slip through your fingers Your rules don't work for us, it's true Good and evil A balanced force Rebel upheaval It's a clear choice The Dark versus the Light

about

BOWCASTER

Bowcaster is a high-yield, rumbling spread of distortion and rock'n'roll destruction performed with blistering rhythmic precision. Awash with an oil slick of white noise guitarism and repeatedly razing venues to the ground, this five-piece encapsulate in sound and lyrics of the original trilogy we all hold dear to our hearts. ... more
