Commentary: Vocal 3 : 16
Ah, finally...Sound Online's rendition of Suwa Foughten Field. With the post-doomsday-like musical score plus the really tense and slow to moderate vocals, I can't help but think of a kingdom destroyed by war. It was once a prosperous, technologically advanced state. It was the country's pride. They felt secure with the gods carrying them on their backs, plus the technology they possessed, they thought they're the race that would never fall and would dominate the lands...that's what they thought, they were wrong. An inland war broke out, throwing the whole country in chaos. Just when they thought it wouldn't get any worse, the other kingdoms saw this as an opportunity to take down this prideful country, and have succeeded in doing so, courtesy of the inland coup. It's inhabitants enslaved, brutally murdered, massacred, abused; survivors of the war have lost their will to fight, to live on...worse, they've lost their faith to their protectors, the gods that suddenly vanished just before the kingdom falls into pieces. Fires burning around, corpses all around, the blood-colored sky illuminates the morning...all is gone, all is destroyed when the gods returned. Life ceased from that day on. It's a pitiful scene, and this is what I saw while listening to this song. This would probably be my most favorite Suwa Foughten Field vocal in the recorded history.
