lyrics

The creature rages at the sun,
A burning wraith.
Bloodred, haunting face.

Its heart is withered by its greed,
A lust for power.
Wretched, dying eyes.

A want became a sickness,
A need to be the king.
Desire turned to madness,
And selfishness the fix.

Forsook the ones around him,
To get a better edge.
Imprisoned by neurosis,
The walls are closing in.

Psychopathic smile.

Psychopathic smile, psychopathic eyes.

At the top of institutions everywhere.
At the top.
Top.

Grinning as he takes your life,
Not with gun and not by knife.
Byzantine financial system.
Crushed by debt and corporations.

Slow, dark and gloomy as if giant mold ate the Earth alive. Great sound, great arrangements, great muscianship. The right amount of everything in every aspect. To my ears in this genre surprisingly colorful record. Great band deserving our attention! yesfan2

Location made it hard for me to be on the tape trading circuit back in the day, so discovering this band in the 80s would have been hard from rural ohio. Glad I got to hear this now! Rivals all the stateside 2nd wave thrashers ! Recommend ! warchrist30

Amazing release from Chilean avant tech thrash masters. With lot of diversity, spanish lyrics and lines of accordion, piano, and clarinet. Dmitry Nevozhay

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise. zirtonic
