lyrics

Boots on the ground,
another raid
Would rather be no other place
Than bringing existence to an end
Stained with blood of a thousand dead men
Circle back, we know the drill
Confirm the dead with overkill
My memory razed now it’s hollow
Fall to the back cuz I’m the devil to follow

I’d rather die than let them breathe
Another day on this plane
Exorcise your demons
Come to me and leave with no shame

It’s the rage I want
And it gives me life with a scent that’s sweet like death’s smell
Behind the eyes, an empty space
To contemplate my own hell

Watch the blood, circle the drain
The rhythms of life always end the same
Summon the strength to punch back until they burst
Knowledge is everything, blindness is God’s curse
The moment will come in the blink of an eye
Everything we know is a goddamn lie
Everyone will run into the streets and cry
Because we let mankind control the sky

I’d rather die than let them breathe Another day on this plane
Exorcise your demons
Come to me and leave with no shame

It’s the rage I want
And it gives me life with a scent that’s sweet like death’s smell
Behind the eyes, an empty space
To contemplate my own hell

Predator
by Bionic Cavemen

Bionic Cavemen just plain rock. Although stoner by nature, they incorporate so many other elements. THAL

Moon Curse
by Moon Curse

If you're looking for your Sabbath fix you've come to the right place. They rock hard, but there's also some swing in their groove. Highly recommended. THAL

Recently discovered this band. IF their back catalogue, is as great as this I'll be adding them to my collection. To my ears they sound like someone has blended early black sabbath with led zepplin's bluesier albums. A much welcome trip to the 70s hard blues heavy metal. welshwizzardd
