about

"No quarter" is a pirate phrase meaning "no mercy". The titel of the song is derived from the military practice of showing no mercy to the vanquished opponent and from the brave act of not asking for mercy when vanquished.

Onyx Eyes transform the original ambiental/ psychodelic rock mood of the song into the energetic metal piece with the symphonic and electro elements, guitars inspired by Zakk Wilde and operatic vocals influenced by jazzy and soul singing-style.

lyrics

Close the door, put out the light
No, they won't be home tonight
The snow falls hard and don't you know?
The winds of Thor are blowing cold
They're wearing steel that's bright and true
They carry news that must get through, oh
They choose the path where no-one goes
They hold no quarter
They hold no quarter, oh, quarter
They hold no quarter
Walking side-by-side with death
The devil mocks their every step, ooh
The snow drives back the foot that's slow
The dogs of doom are howling more
They carry news that must get through
To build a dream for me and you, oh, oh, oh
They choose the path where no one goes
They hold no quarter
They ask no quarter, ah
They hold no quarter, uh
They ask no quarter
Dogs of doom are howling more
Without quarter, asking no quarter
They ask no quarter, ah
They hold no quarter, ah
They ask no quarter, uh
Without quarter
Taking no quarter
