Viking - "Do or Die" (audio)

I know you're taken
With a burden
And you don't know
Your head from your tail
But if you're gonna do it,
Do it right
You've got to hit
The head of the nail

If it ain't worth dying for
It ain't worth doing
Aren't you tired
Of waiting in line?
Take us to the top
Or straight to hell
Do or die

Make it or break it -
That's our battle call
That's the way you've got
To live your time
If you won't do it now,
Don't do it at all
Wasting days is a moral crime

If it ain't worth dying for
It ain't worth doing
Aren't you tired
Of waiting in line?
Take us to the top
Or straight to hell
Do or die

Make it or break it -
That's our battle call
Give it your best
Or you'll fail
If you won't do it now,
Don't do it at all
You've got to hit
The head of the nail

If it ain't worth dying for
It ain't worth doing
Aren't you tired
Of waiting in line?
Take us to the top
Or straight to hell
Do or die

Viking: Αμερικάνικο thrash metal συγκρότημα που είχε κυκλοφορήσει δύο δίσκους στα τέλη της δεκαετίας του ογδόντα: το "Do or Die" (1988) και το "Man of Straw" (1989). Στην συνέχεια διέλυσαν. Προ δεκαετίας επανασυνδέθηκαν και επανήλθαν στο "μουσικό προσκήνιο" με δισκογραφικό αποτέλεσμα το album "No Child Left Behind" που "βγήκε" την άνοιξη του 2015. Εστιάζουμε στο ντεμπούτο τους, το οποίο γνώρισε αρκετές επανακυκλοφορίες με πλέον πρόσφατη εκείνη του περασμένου Απρίλη από την High Roller Records σε βινύλιο...
