lyrics
Verse I pt.A: Profit! Greed! X4
Bloodied bodies line up for the cut
Corporates dripping profits from their gut
Mindless buying holding their lives shut
Exploiting their lives for this worthless stuff
Verse I pt.B: All systems running, All systems running, Maximize the body count
All systems running, All systems running, Engage the organ grinder
Inject the flesh, Inject the flesh, Exploit the workers bare
Inject the flesh, Inject the flesh, Corporates profits must repair
Turnaround:
Verse II pt.A: Profit! Greed! X4
Deadly secrets driving their stocks up
Backroom dealings bargain for their cut
Hording all the assets worthless junk
Ensure the masses keep their mouths shut
Verse II pt.B: All systems running, All systems running, Maximize the body count
All systems running, All systems running, Engage the organ grinder
Inject the flesh, Inject the flesh, Exploit the workers bare
Inject the flesh, Inject the flesh, Corporates profits must repair
Turnaround: The pain we cause, consumed within
Your final breath, this is the end
Chorus I: All systems live for the world to see
All people die for the end game
Waiting in line for air to breathe
Reeking of shit for the pigs gain
The bodies stacked high I can’t see
Polluted our minds from our back seat
Controlling the masses directing our will
The profits soar high while the earth stands still
Bridge/Solo/Turnaround:
Verse III pt.A: Profit! Greed! X4
Corporate profits nailing their lives shut
Collapsing endless finance pay up
Sacrifice the old their lives suck
Feeding on their greed eyes sewn shut
Verse III pt.B: All systems running, All systems running, Maximize the body count
All systems running, All systems running, Engage the organ grinder
Inject the flesh, Inject the flesh, Exploit the workers bare
Inject the flesh, Inject the flesh, Corporates profits must repair
Turnaround: The pain we cause, consumed within
Your final breath, this is the end
Chorus II: All systems live for the world to see
All people die for the end game
Waiting in line for air to breathe
Reeking of shit for the pigs gain
The bodies stacked high I can’t see
Polluted our minds from our back seat
Controlling the masses directing our will
The profits soar high while the earth stands still

Old school Death Metal in its purest form. Thanks to Transcending Obscurity for this little gem. Found it on Bandcamp Friday. The clean singing part in „Rot of Ages“ is epic - i did not expecting this. Highly recommended for everyone who loves old school Death Metal!

Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore
