Volbeat!
"The Gates Of Babylon"
Awakening a goddess in the dark On a stake she’s been hanging like a doll Tried to reach for the underworld Had to pass through the seven gates of hell
Naked, lost, and deprived of all All the power that she had lost
Dear ancient god, reveal your home At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon
Sent by Lord Enki to find, the goddess Ishtar, and bring her back to life The tale of death and rebirth will become, the walls of kings and the goddess that she was
Naked, lost and deprived of all All the power that she had lost
Dear ancient god, reveal your home At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon
(Ishtar to Erishkigal) Dear sister what have I done to deserve thy anger? I passed through the seven gates, now all I had is yours The underworld that you rule, I became a victim of the messenger from another time has brought me home
Dear ancient god, reveal your home At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon
Dear ancient God release your soul, at the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon At the gates of Babylon

I can't find a full album of these guys on Youtube, but you owe it to yourself to download it.
I will post some favorites in the meantime.

"Let It Burn"
Tell the lonely where to go Kill the inside and let it burn He’s not the only without hope Kill the inside and let it burn
The fire may not open, but the Devil will return Insanity or glory, in a mind that never learns A moment of something where the dark can reverse
Tell the lonely where to go Kill the inside and let it burn He’s not the only without hope Kill the inside and let it burn
The empty eyes are falling down the path of no return In blindness he wanders, if his mind will ever learn A moment of something where the dark can reverse
Tell the lonely where to go Kill the inside and let it burn He’s not the only without hope Kill the inside and let it burn
Tell the lonely where to go Kill the inside and let it burn He’s not the only without hope Kill the inside and let it burn Tell the lonely where to go Kill the inside and let it burn He’s not the only without hope Kill the inside and let it burn

"The Loa's Crossroad"
Breathing, breathing the air from the dead The stench of his soil The sound of him walking his cane
A grey white face painted in a shape of a skull A shadowy Loa, with red eyes, so cold in the dark
A grey white face painted in a shape of a skull A shadowy Loa, with red eyes, so cold in the dark
[Papa Legba:] You are my call of the day Praying to open the gate You’ve been fooled by Marie For years we been sealing the deal You, for immortality
Hear me, hear me Baron Samedi Get me away from this Loa I’m down on my knees
A grey white face painted in a shape of a skull A shadowy Loa, with red eyes, so cold in the dark
A grey white face painted in a shape of a skull A shadowy Loa, with red eyes, so cold in the dark
[Papa Legba:] You are my call of the day Praying to open the gate You’ve been fooled by Marie For years we’ve been sealing the deal Now you called the Baron of Death The crossroad of Loa’s will end We’ll be fighting for what you can’t see Marie’s Immortality
You, for immortality

You got me tied down with battleship chains Fifty foot long and a two ton anchor Tied down with battleship chains Fifty foot long with a two ton anchor
I can't move my arms To hold nobody Hold nobody but you I can't move my legs To chase nobody To kick nobody but you
You got me tied down with battleship chains Fifty foot long and a two ton anchor Tied down with battleship chains Fifty foot long and a two ton anchor
I can't move my eyes To see nobody See nobody but you I can't move my tongue To taste nobody To lick nobody but you
I can't move my lips To kiss nobody Kiss nobody but you I can't move my heart To love nobody To love nobody but you
You got me tied down with battleship chains Fifty foot long and a two ton anchor Tied down with battleship chains Fifty foot long and a two ton anchor
You got me tied, tied Tied, tied Don't you know you got me Tied, tied Tied, tied Baby don't you know you got me Tied tied, Tied, tied You got me tied, tied Tied, tied, Oh baby don't you know You got me tied, tied Tied, tied You got me tied, tied Tied, tied
