about

We are a 4 member group located in Korinthos. 2 guitars, bass, drums. Our dream is to tour and share our music allover Greece and World. We are a rock band hitting electric blues, rock, progressive harmonies. Our first EP is recorded and named "KOREDGE I" as our first try to share our music. Mother, Chamdo and Alchemist are the 3 songs included on KOREDGE I. Mother is an hymn to woman, earth, mother. Chambo is an hymn to freedom. A tale for the battle of Chamdo during the Chinese invasion to Tibet. Alchemist is a song for today's socirty and suppression and it is a calling for an Alchemist to save us.

lyrics

Red troops arriving a blood sign they carry on their flags
The parchment refers to invasion for Lhasa to extinct
1949 the winther i strong, Kham is blur now
Will blur even more when we will defend our land.

Colonel orders preparation of all of our horses
“Get ready to give the strongest and last of your fight.
When you see bullets, fly onto you so to kill you
That is the moment to fight back with your light”

Dengke will be our first attempt to reach freedom
Chamdo will silent the end of our prayers for peace
Seventeen points will not return 2 dead million
And 6000 monasteries dead at the East.

Warm is the blood, dripping on the edge of the valley
Hot is the sun, Blended with our troops on the hill
The bullets fly, they penetrate our souls now


Massacred the 1st, Massacred the 3d of our lines
Massacred the 4th, the only remains is line 2
The Monks are strong, devoted protectors of faith
Dead smells so strong, sure they will die too.


When you know that the time is near, and the path is crystal clear
Now we build again this land, on new holy ground and sand
Praying that the roof of world, will remain and will grow old
So do we through faith and time, Mantras we will sing and chimes
Hum mani padme hum, for the soul that left too soon
For invaders made us bad, pray for them not to be sad

Two the reasons for a Hell, to treat itself and heal so well,
May compassion to accept, or on lenity been crept
Then the beasts will seek a cave, and our darkness its own grave
Then until we meet again, light will be our ally and friend.

War, the end of war is near
War, the end of war is near
War, the end of war is near
The waters are now clear

War, the end of war is near
War, the end of war is near
War, the end of war is near
The valley is ours and clear
