Six Foot Six has released a lyric-video for ‘The Siege (A Templar’s Tale pt. 2)’, fifth single taken from the new album ‘Beggar’s Hill’ released on December 8th through Scarlet Records.
‘A Templar’s Tale’ is a trilogy of songs and videos based upon Jan Guillou’s books about the Swedish knight templar Arn Magnusson.
Pure anthemic heavy metal at its best: ‘Beggar’s Hill’ is the third Six Foot Six record and the most coherent of their works until this date.
Influenced by classic bands such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Metallica, it’s a guitar and vocal melody-driven album, but still with a powerful up-to-date sound.
The catchy songs take you on a melancholic journey through salt-beaten winding seaside cliffs, medieval battles, decrepitude and abandonment, cinematic glimpses and the general state of the world – a planet of war, love, pollution and wonders!
All drums are tracked by the legendary Snowy Shaw, as a special guest, and he puts his unmistakable mark on the entire album.
