The music was composed by Zel and Dhilorz. The lyrics on the album are all written by Zel, many of them speaking about the devil, the spirit of the devil and how it influences us in various devastating and destructive ways, as well as some fantasy lyrics, still somehow connected with the &#8220;old Nick subject&#8221;. The album cover shows a hooded figure coming back to &#8220;the land of the dead&#8221; to wake up the &#8220;spiritually dead people there&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The album is 66 minutes long and has 13 tracks, including a cover of Bathory &#8221; 13 Candles&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>ANCIENT anno 2016 :<br \/>\nZel : Vocals, guitar, keyboards<br \/>\nDhilorz : Guitars and bass<br \/>\nNick Barker : Drums<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10378\" src=\"http:\/\/powerofmetal.dk\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ancient-photo.jpg\" alt=\"Ancient Cover Artwork\" width=\"600\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsite.powerofmetal.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ancient-photo.jpg 600w, https:\/\/newsite.powerofmetal.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ancient-photo-200x104.jpg 200w, https:\/\/newsite.powerofmetal.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/ancient-photo-300x156.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This pre-listen of the track &#8220;Death Will Die&#8221;\u00a0is exclusive for the Power Of Metal.dk in Denmark:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/278066828&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;visual=true\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"oneComWebmail-colour\"><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ancientband\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ancientband\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"oneComWebmail-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SOULSELLERRECORDS\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SOULSELLERRECORDS<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"oneComWebmail-size\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.soulsellerrecords.com\/ancient-back-to-the-land-of-the-dead-cdlim-digipack-cdlim-2lpdigital-out-16-09-16\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.soulsellerrecords.com\/ancient-back-to-the-land-of-the-dead-cdlim-digipack-cdlim-2lpdigital-out-16-09-16\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The new album &#8220;Back To The Land Of The Dead&#8221; is a comeback for Ancient, 12 years after the previous release &#8220;Night Visit&#8221;.
