“This is our tribute to songs like “In Union We Stand” (Overkill) or Metal Church ́s s/t anthem from their debut album, with a fast guitar over a stubborn but easy-going beat", says the band about "Leather, Spikes and Chains". "The lyrics deal with a metal biker gang in the style of Mad Max (the movie) or Carnivore ́s post-world-war III (and IV) -scenario. If we would not be a metal band but a biker gang, this would be our club hymn. As so often and as usual, some critics have already slapped us in the face because of the song title - “too clichéd, created with the Manowar text generator” and so on. Anyone who has read and understood the lyrics knows that this is nonsense. And anyone who knows us is well aware that we don't give a shit anyway. We only do this for ourselves and for the people who are into this stuff. And that's why we've packed a lot of fan footage from all over the world into the video. This is basically our photo collage in video format and our thank you to all supporters to celebrate the release of the album. Have fun!“

Lyrics:
Forever charging on barbed wired
Deadly grinding wheels
Bastard sons of steel and fire
Devils on our heels
Maniacs of metal's glory - iron gang let loose
One foot in hell - one in fire
Necks stuck in the noose
And the sun goes down again
As in the twilight ride
Armies of the proud and damned
In battle side by side
Burning leather - spikes and chains
Leather - spikes and chains
Leather - spikes and chains
Don't you see it´s time again
We are riding high again
With leather - spikes and chains
Brothers - we were born together and tonight we'll fight
The enemy is strong but wounded by their unjust pride
Strike with iron fist and hammer
Drink their blood like wine
Quench our thirst in righteous fury
Slaughtering the swine
And the sun goes down again
As in the twilight ride
Armies of the proud and damned
In battle side by side
Burning leather - spikes and chains
Leather - spikes and chains
Leather - spikes and chains
Don´t you see it´s time again
We are riding high again
With leather - spikes and chains
If you fall we'll meet again
Beyond the clouded sky
No beginning and no end
United live or die
Leather - spikes and chains
Leather - spikes and chains
Leather - spikes and chains
Don´t you see it´s time again
We are riding high again
With leather - spikes and chains
