Song lyrics...criticisms, comments, flames?

[Lies and Perfidy]

Thanks, led...these two songs were written recently, so I've incorporated a lot of stuff from my poetry unit. If I ever find any of the lyrics I wrote back in 8th and 9th grade, I'll post them so you can all see how atrocious they are.

Yeah, I noticed the Burnt Offerings thing...wanna see REAL unoriginality? Count the number of metal bands with "dragon" in their names.

 

[PlatypusJesus]

Dragonland, Dragonlord, Dragonforce, Dragonheart, Dragonhammer, ah, that's all that I know that begin with dragon. I can't think of any that end or have dragon in the middle. How about all of the bands that have dream in their name. Oh yeah, there's a lot of them.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Dawn Of Dreams
Dream Evil
Dream Theater
Dreams Of Sanity
Dreamtale
Dreamtide
Jacobs Dream

How about "night"?
Blackmore's Night
Midnight Sun
Night In Gales
Nightmare
Nightshade
Nightwish

I'm beginning to sense a lack of inspiration. If I get my band back together, we really should come up with an actual name at some point...I'm thinking Sociophobia.

 

[PlatypusJesus]

Or Dragon Dreams, or Dreams of Dragons, or Dragon Night, or Nightdreams, or Dragons' Dream, or Dreaming Dragon, or Dreamy Nights, or Dragons of Night, or Dragons Nightdream.

 

[Chromatose]

all those bands need to exist.. and throw a big festival together.. the insanity!!

oh and just imagine the kind of music they would all play. hahaha

Nah, I didn't. Thanks for saying it...that's kinda weird! I really thought most Black Metal was not only anti-christian, but anti-religious at all (except Pagan Metal Bands). Somewhat weird.

DREAMING DRAGONCHEESE IN THE NIGHT!! YEEEEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!

 

[dreaming neon darkspot]

[neal]

yeh those have a very 'true'/american/metallica/iced earth kinda seems like its about somthing but kinda not. but i think thats probably what you want as you have a met avatar, quote dave mustaine, and like iced earth a bunch. kudos.

[Lies and Perfidy]

Yeah, most of my stuff is pretty 80's American...I've written a couple things that were more epic, and a sentimentialish ballad or two, but mostly the "images of death and destruction (sometimes with moral message)" style that was so popular among the Bay Area thrash movement.

I've got more, but does anybody else have lyrics to post? I'm interested in seeing what's going on in yer twisted minds.

Incidentally, the Dave quote is just becaus I think the line's hilarious and I hate Ümlautley Crüe.

 

[neal]

heres a song my friend dave wrote in high school and we actually played it in guitar class haha. i had lead vocals. this song is funny.
DECAPITATED

cut the head off
watch it bleed
watch the victim die
violently
mass murder
in the land of the free
decapitated
psychotically


my soul was bound
before my time
destined to commit
this bloody crime
growing collective
of the dead
another sacrificed
bloody head


flesh filled with maggots
fetid decay
eat to live to kill
another day
a piece of mind
is what i got
the pile of heads
grows and rots

IT FUCKING ROTS

the last line was adlibed by me when we played it

[muthafuckin penguin]

that shit was muthafucking COOL muthafucka!

\m/NEAL\m/

the muthafuckin king of muthafucking death metal muthafuckas!

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Better lyrics than the Priest song.

Very Corpse, very fun. Did you do the death growl?

 

[neal]

yeh i tried haha. but it came out more 'gruff yelling' like the first AE singer haha. oh well
-neal

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

The only thing harder on your throat than the death growl is an imitation of Blitz from Overkill as he sounds now. I sang along with Wrecking Everything Live at the top of my lungs one night and couldn't talk above a whisper until the next evening.

That cd rules. I don't usually like live versions of songs better than the original, but Evil Never Dies has so much more energy on WE than YoD.

-mike-

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Yeah, I think Blitz's roughened vox improve a lot of the songs (esp. Deny the Cross & Overkill), and Dave Linsk is just awesome. Do you have the DVD?

 

[Unregistered]

Nah, I just got the two cd's.

mike

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Two CDs? The version I have is only single-disc...is there another version I'm not aware of, or did you mean "Wrecking Your Neck."

Whatever the case, get the DVD if you can find it for a reasonable price...it's an incredible performance with some decent extras.

 

[Unregistered]

Cd one being Wrecking Everything and cd two being Years of Decay (which I had mentioned earlier).
