We’ll melt your metal brain So crank it up, amplify METALPOWER! We’ve maimed and conquered Still you want one more We’re happy to kill you and rock you out the door So crank it up, amplify METALPOWER!

On a White horse, the Antichrist rides Spreading plagues and more With a red horseman by his side, bringing war Black horse the rider is famine and oppression Pale horse he carries Death, color ashen Chorus It is the end of times-tribulation For your sin, judgements here When they begin their ride-world’s ending None shall pass who live in fear By the sword or by the plague 1/4 of all people killed Civil war and empires divide, by the Red Horseman’s will Up goes the price of grain, the poor people suffer Death grins looking on, here to judge and conquer Chorus False gods, false prophets and leper messiahs Spread fear, hatred, a loss of faith Natural disasters multiplying The reign of man falls, the beasts begin Chorus

When I was younger, they told me to pray Don’t waste your tomorrows by wasting today Your soul is too precious to leave up to chance Don’t end up like others, same song and dance Chorus Wrath and Blasphemy, the only things left to me I choose to live this life only for today Wrath and blasphemy, it’s my destiny My final choice? 666 Some people will tell you just how to live Rules to live by and how much to give Holier than thou? Keep out of my way I was never lost, don’t need to be saved Chorus 1000’s of angels on the head of a pin Millions of ways to live a life of sin There’s only one way to live life for me It’s a life I choose, live fast and die free Chorus

At the bottom of the well, encased in ice, guilty of treachery. You betray all love and warmth, you deny your family. Trapped with Cain and Atenor, honor no country or kin. If you didn’t know, it’s cold below, get ready to begin. Descend! Cocytus! Two heads in a hole, both treacherous, liars with sinner’s hearts. Plot together to take control, now forever never apart. The bishop’s skull, bared for all, let his tears stay frozen. Cut the thread from living to dead, this is what they’ve chosen. Descend! Cocytus! In the center of hell, once fairest of all, condemned for the ultimate sin. The three faces of Lucifer, black, yellow, red. In his jaws, three traitors suffer eternal pain. Brutus, Cassius, and Judas forever flayed. Descend! Cocytus!

Forever are the dead! In silent piles the corpses lie Horror stricken, stripped of life No one remains to bury those who died Chorus Full of pity and regret Mother’s grieve and children wept Father’s curse with quiet breath Another battle, another death Naked are the dead! Stripped clean of all worth Vultures, crows, wolves Scatter bones across the earth Chorus Endless is war Thousands of miles from home Generals accomplish nothing Our armies grow tired and old Chorus Soldiers are clashing, shields are bashing No quarter given, none will be asked No hope of winning, just keep killing No prisoners so fight to the last Trapped and surrounded, spears lay broken No quarter given, none will be asked Final stand ready, Blood in a frenzy No honor in defeat, fight to the last.

Thinking machines, programmed to kill Guard the maker day and night until Scrambled wires drives it insane Now there’s only one thing on it’s electric brain Scanning-for all threats Plotting-it’s defense Launching-nuclear death LOCATE & ELIMINATE! With dead reckoning, machine war begins Won’t stop until the living end With cold precision the machines hunt our kind Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide Chorus Bury your dead and fight for your life To survive through nuclear night Machines created to bring peace Now humanity is obsolete

about

1983 was a great year for metal with albums by Slayer, Ozzy, Accept, Iron Maiden, Quiet Riot, Def Leppard and many others. But Metallica's "Kill 'Em All," often called the first thrash album, definitely is one of the more influential albums from that year.

These six songs are a straight up tribute to early 80's metal and a hack job of select tracks from "Kill 'Em All." Think of it like a Lego set that was put together without the instructions. It looks similar to the picture on the box, but not quite.

Have a sense of humor and revel in the reverb drenched guitar solos and the endless riffage. Metal up your Ass!
