Symphony X - Iconoclast Lyrics
Rise of the one -
The dark iconoclast
Forging a cult of fear,
With legions unsurpassed
Shouting the word -
Born of illusion and deceit
Fiendish soul of a liar.
The chaos unseen rips
The midnight sky
Infernal machines arise
Flesh and steel collide
We are strong
We will stand and fight
We will stand and fight
With rage we ride into the flames
Striking with spears of hate,
At the heart where evil reigns
Holding the line from the charge
Of armored steeds
Gather around this deadly ground,
Come watch the war god bleed.
The chaos unseen rips
The midnight sky
Infernal machines arise
Flesh and steel collide
We are strong
We will stand and fight
We are strong
We will stand and fight
Victory or death, only time will tell
Synthetic resurrection,
From the heart of hell
Slowly they fall, as we watch
The daylight die
We spit and curse this hallowed earth
With our final battle cry,
The chaos unseen rips
The midnight sky
Infernal machines arise -
Flesh and steel collide
We are strong
We will stand and fight
We are strong
We will stand and fight

Symphony X Iconoclast Comments
X-WEWILLSTAND&FIGHT-X
I only found out about Symphony X about 4 years ago and I've been addicted ever since. Dammit, these guys have got to be the world's most perfect band, and I consider this to be the perfect metal song! If ever I meet someone who is unfamiliar with metal, Iconoclast would be the first song I would put on for them.
5:23 fucking epic
These riffs are vein tapping gold!
Are there any lyrics for the choir at 1:32 ?
6:03 The speed of that scale man! unbelievable, love these guys!
Yeah, its like John Petrucci with alternate picking
WE ARE STRONG!!!
Awesome!!!!!!!!
This song fucking rocks! 🤘🤘🤘
Amazing song, but disappointing album in general, Symphony X’s weakest IMO.
8:40 Victory or death !!!?
insane riffs!!
Killer riff. Best SX solo. Thanks all gods!
love this music
Song of the legion: The wrath of the lambs comes for the false definition of man and woman. All of creation is with us. Use only words to preach and nature will take its course with the war pigs.
Still waiting and hoping for the TESD interview.
Paradise and garden edens are two different themes pls be against them.
Don't ask them.
In my opinion this is the perfect metal song! It has symphonic elements, power metal elements, progressive elements...I could just go on and on. These guys all absolutely shred their asses off on this song!
I tried to do the drum part i could not do it.
The Amazing this music
5:36 my favorite riff in the song. So badass.
Bad ass this is a perfect album
Does anyone know what is the choir chanting throughout the song?
I like the part from 0:01 to 10:51
I like how the side recommendations are Dream Theater. Definitely true, which is a good thing!!
I keep coming back to this song, it's just so captivating. The epic atmosphere, the incredible singing and the absolutely stellar guitar playing. I'm so glad I stumbled upon those guys some years ago, it all just fits so well together. I wish them all the success in the world, they truly deserve it!
Even though this could be my least favorite Symphony X album, this song is definately impressive.
Hell YEAAA
song is so badass it turned my laptop into optimus prime
Can't stop picturing Space Marines when I play this song.
Inhales: Victory or death... ooohhhh!!!
CONSCIOUS THOUGHT YOU AIN'T TRIED DIS B REALITY IS... I dunno it has it's perks. God bless Latuda.
2:12 windmill in 3,2,1
¡Ahhh, I love the drums on this song!!!!! ❤❤❤
Played this song in my car with a friend one day, felt as if we rode a flaming chariot trailblazing into a battlefield!
michael romeo has that effect on mere mortals
I saw these guys live. There were major monitor problems and couldn't hear their parts properly...
Still powered through and played and sang like real pros. It a great performance and it was even more impressive seeing them in adverse conditions. I wish more bands today sounded as good as these guys do live.
VICTORY OR DEATH!!!!
VICTORY OR DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HYPE!
Wow, people didn't like this...?
2:00 so fucking good and satisfying to listen
Amazing!!!
Final Boss fight in a video game where the badguys are machines or robots wiping out humanity.
You don't get it any better than Symphony X.
Been listening every day for two years and some Pagans Mind.
As a guitarist my playing has gone through the roof as a direct result of listening to the great Symphony X.
The Riffs...the fucking glorious riffs.
Fucking awesome song that gives off some heavy System Shock vibes. Rock the fuck on!!!
This song just came out when I left the hospital for one reason I WIN MOTHERFUCKERS!!!
Pd: thanks symphony x for bring me back to life
Dream who?
I like SX a lil more than DT but this comment is as old and petty as the meatheads perpetuating the Metallica/Megadeth debate.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheMetalABCs/
the intro makes me heavily think of 'Dance of Eternity' by Dream Theater.
Once again, I congratulate you gentlemen on your coming-up-band ditty. I STILL HAVE NO COCAINE!
from 5:22 to 7:00 amazing!
8:40, thats a victory! thanks russell!
I could loop that and listen to it all the way to work.
Woah incredible this is epic
Everyone figures that out sooner or later.
10:14-10:51 is just amazing
Rob Palmer Yeah, reminds me of Blackened intro by of course Metallica.
no words for this band. pure gold!!!!
One of my favorite songs by SX and that riff, oh that riff, the best ever...
This song?
+Kiko C no man, which riff
ah thought so. The one that always comes after the chorus. Very groovy and technical...
a riff - what riff
What the Fuck Did you Say ?
I think he means the one at the 2nd minute.
Triplets' part is way sick. The rest of the song is really good, but (except for the intro) it's a copy - paste of various Symphony X' seconds songs (Evolution, Set the World on fire, and now Nevermore too for the very intro, and Domination stop at the same position of that song). Anyway, I like it very much: I guess we can save this track and Reign in Madness of Iconoclast. Oh, and When all is lost too, even if it seems something built on purpose, not moving as Sacrifice or Candlelight Fantasia (or Whispers)
Who cares if this is a copy of other SX songs? The song is too epic.
the beginning of this song makes me go "oh shit, I need to get going!" whatever that means lol it makes me anxious
i had the exact same feeling lol
That's what's great! I always start out the day with a hefty dose of stress hormones, makes me feel alive.
haven't listened to Symphony x for many years but this sounds like Evolution (Grand Design) from their previous album V. Just listen to the verse rythm of each song.
Rome es mi heroe desde el 2004 desde q era un bebe :3 el es compositor siempre lo fue.
Whoever thimb down this shouldn't even be listening to it. F*** off
Слелдлддлдлд
super banda, de mis favoritos.
Loved this video! All the best!!
please rate uss!!! thanks!!! HELLOWEEN - I Want Out (Everbound Cover)
Kinda pumps you up. Hell yeah!
I am addicted to Symphony X
Same here x
Why would you even compare that fat dog to this awsome band?
who the fuck is snooki?
Myrk-o a terrible disease?
snooki is the ugliest thing ive laid eyes on....
awesome song!
Overkill came out of NJ in the early 80s too - let's not lump us all in with Snooki (who isn't even FROM NJ)...
wtf is NJ, must be a real shithole of a country to house such a depraved individual.
blasphemytard New Jersey
Romeo is a god for sure.
TheBest Song
How dare you even compare them. Snooki doesn't even exist compared to this
Fixed. I think
Your lyrics are wayyyyy off
Thanks for formulating my opinion.
I want to add, 'that voice', very powerfull
Michael Romeo = Genius.
fucking awesome lyrics
Laurent CM
Fucking awesome band
best singer ever!!!!!!
Just brill all got to say on the matter
whoa dude, you'd need several km² of paper to write down a number this high
The Spirit Carries On <3
Strange Deja Vu <3
Finally Free <3 :D
Home <3
6:24 ..... fap fap fap fap
Scenes From A Memory is still the best album of all time, along with SX's The New Mythology Suite.. :P (DreamTheater1985QL)
DT hasn't been the same since the 90's sadly and now without portnoy there's just no chance. This album however has strong points mixed in with extremely weak ones that ruin every song for me. I love some riffs and vocals but others just seem thrown in at the last second without any thought
lol dis isnt dt
Well it's not as harsh as death metal. However SX are still evolvolving. I think it helps too when prog bands can venture out and come back together. Brings other things together.
Damn if only I can convince my wife about that theory. LOL
wolfgange63 learn to sing like that and I'm pretty sure she'll go for it
Yes it is since the mainstream will tell ya Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi is the best out of NJ
Yeah, it's kind of like multiplying by zero.
Dude that's not saying much.
Love this song.
I think new stuff better
I find the straight metal feel refreshing coming from their perspective, though I agree if they keep up in this manner it would get a tad boring.
I see. There's a great demand from metalheads for this kind of stuff.
Nevertheless, I still believe that they can still do some metal-progressive tune and still sound totally different from this usual straight-metal feel.
I completely agree... A Dramatic Turn of Events is one of my favourite Dream Theater albums without a doubt.
I think this song is fantastic. Greatly prefer Paradise Lost and Iconoclast to their older material, though by no means am I saying that their old material was bad. I'm just very content with the sound they have achieved with the last two albums.
stupid question:
wjy are you even comparing symphony x to snooki and the rest of jersey shore?
