Lyrics:
Welcome to my realm
Hellfire at the helm
Every soul soon shall I reave
A whole world to be grieved
Run the gauntlet of the damned
Under my iron hand
The eternal heavyweight
They're serving Death in Plate

Righteous conquest
Striding dauntless
Life beyond this
Mortal prison
Blood runs shallow
Cursed and hallowed
Share the gallows
I am risen

I'll keep it real bros: I hate mixing. I haven't been keeping count but I think I've had more requests for Morde than anyone else. Kinda wish I hadn't made him one of the Season of Death entries. Deadlines are the enemy of satisfaction. Sorry if this doesn't live up to expectations.
Anyway, I’m very (VERY) new to all kinds of screaming. Went with a false chord growl since it seemed to come fairly naturally to me, but my breath control is ass so I can only manage a couple seconds. I’m not confident enough to have it front and centre, which I think is fine for Morde since his theme is a little more symphonic with its roaring brass section so a mix of metal and classical/theatrical vocals makes sense to me. Don’t think I’d get away with that for Aatrox though.
Also I’m calling out whichever demonspawn Rioter composed the EIGHTEEN AND A HALF BEAT section at the end of the ambience. Bet they thought they were slick sliding that in there. If the timing on the chant/growl sounds weird, blame them.
