Track By Tracks: Grindpad - Violence (2020)

1. My Name Is Violence

The album needed a short and aggressive opener.

So, these lyrics are somewhat of a poetic parallel between the evil in the world and the violence of Thrash Metal.

2. Burn the Rapist

A pissed off song based on an actual news item, sadly.

A woman was brutally raped in a bus (FULL of people), and some thought "that she asked for it".

I mean, WTF...

3. Toxic Terror

A nice classic horror story, based, for example, on movies like "Return of the Living Dead" & such.

4. The Knife Is Sharper Than Ever:

A classic party song that the crowd enjoys every time.

5. Justice Part 1: Crime

No lyrics.

6. Justice Part 2: Penalty:

A nice pissed off rant about assholes that disrupt society.

To quote good ol' Clint: "Hang 'em high!"

7. Revuelta:

A violent fictional story about a horrible prison riot. Partly in Chilean Spanish.

Sean Maia (vocalist Disquiet/Oproerkraaiers) is helping us out on this one.

8. Blood, Sweat, and Pride

An almost Hardcore-ish text about staying true to yourself and taking pride in being a member of the beautiful Metalscene.

9. Mature Love:

Ahh.... No comment (for 18+ only ;) )

10. MK Ultra:

A dark and intense narrative about mind control, manipulation, and the devastating effects of these practices. The song explores themes of psychological warfare and the abuse of power, creating a vivid and unsettling picture of a dystopian reality.

11. To Those About to Die:

Here we wanted a fast, razor-sharp song that would be catchy from beginning to end. That's how To Those was born.

12. Cephalopod Idolator:

A Lovecraftian horror story about all the ghastly things, lurking in the depths below...

13. X-Mas Mosh:

A tongue-in-cheek story about a hangovered Santa.

And he is watching you
