Подробнее о видео

“In the Shadow of the Storm” is a Dark Folk Western song based on the first chapter of the game “Red Dead Redemption 2”. It follows the Van der Linde gang as they battle against a relentless blizzard while struggling to survive after the failed Blackwater heist. Through Arthur Morgan’s eyes, the song captures the tension of their desperate journey—encounters with the O’Driscolls, the burning of a homestead, the dangerous rescue of John Marston, and a high-stakes train robbery. The lyrics paint a tale of hardship, loyalty, and the looming fractures within the gang, set against the unforgiving power of nature.

Lyrics:

Verse:
Arthur leads through the blizzard’s bite
Snow-carved trails vanish into the night
Horses stumble, their breath turns to frost
Blackwater’s shadows remind him of what’s lost
The cold whispers secrets the dark keeps alive

Verse:
A cabin glows through the freezing haze
Dutch rides beside with his calculating gaze
Inside the walls, the O’Driscolls lie in wait
Micah smirks as he tempts their fate
Arthur steadies his hand, steel gleams in the dark

Pre-Chorus:
Through the frost, they march as one
Bound by blood, though the damage is done
Every step weighed by the sins they carry

Chorus:
In the shadow of the storm, they ride
Through the frozen dark, with fate as their guide
Outlaws to the end, they stand as one
Chasing salvation before the rising sun
With frozen hearts and spirits unbroken
They carve their trail in ice unspoken

Verse:
The gang storms in, and the gunfight begins
O’Driscoll blood stains the snow-covered sins
Silence falls as the last body drops
Micah’s greed sparks fire as he loots their spoils
Arthur pulls Sadie out as the flames consume it all

Verse:
Arthur climbs through the icy expanse
John’s voice echoes, faint in its stance
They find him battered, the frost in his veins
A brother bound by the harshest chains
Through the storm, they pull him from death’s embrace

Pre-Chorus:
Through the frost, they march as one
The fire of hope flickers, though almost gone
Every mile fought for the promise of dawn

Chorus:
In the shadow of the storm, they ride
Through the frozen dark, with fate as their guide
Outlaws to the end, they stand as one
Chasing salvation before the rising sun
With frozen hearts and spirits unbroken
They carve their trail in ice unspoken

Verse:
The engine roars as it pierces the night
Cornwall’s riches shine in the moonlight
Arthur stands firm, his revolver raised
Gold spills like fire, the gang’s spirits ablaze
But the rails run red with the price they pay

Bridge:
Arthur feels the cracks begin to grow
Dutch’s words falter, his voice starts to slow
The storm’s not outside, but within their souls
And the weight of it all begins to take its toll

Final Chorus:
In the shadow of the storm, they ride
Through the frozen dark, with fate as their guide
Outlaws to the end, they stand as one
Chasing salvation before the rising sun
With frozen hearts and spirits unbroken
They carve their trail in ice unspoken
