Kerry King - 'Shrapnel' (official audio)

Down the road I'm told
Certain death is sold
We all must pay the price
I can't
Unsee
The day
My friends died

Limitless human flesh
Scattered for all to see
Thrown away life decays
Stench surrounding me
Climb the walls purely false
Hatred uncontrolled
Irrelevant sentiment
For all that won't go home

I guarantee on death I feed
And my weapons don't care who they kill
Nothing is won until the killing's done
And my blade won't care whose blood is spilled

Silently I grieve
In vengeance I believe
Memories won't suffice
Never
Forget
The day
They all died

I'm insane dealing pain
Taking every soul
Human shield starts to feel
Swinging of control
Suffocate, strangulate
Tightening of the wire
Raining death, final breath
Adrenaline on fire

I guarantee on death I feed
And my weapons don't care who they kill
Nothing is won until the killing's done
And my blade won't care whose blood is spilled

King of war I want more
Addicted to the strife
Politicized, criticized
Killing is my life
Renegade death parade
Blood will quench the dirt
Back on the road that I was told
Forever feed the earth

I guarantee on death I feed
And my weapons don't care who they kill
Nothing is won until the killing's done
And my blade won't care whose blood is spilled

Ο εκ των ιδρυτών των Slayer, Kerry King, αποφάσισε να εκφραστεί μουσικά παράλληλα με το Αμερικάνικο συγκρότημα και δημιούργησε (προ πενταετίας) προσωπικό σχήμα. Προ ημερών (17 Μαΐου 2024) είδε και το ντεμπούτο του σχήματός του σε κυκλοφορία.

Ο δίσκος αποτελείται από δεκατρείς μουσικές συνθέσεις (δώδεκα τραγούδια συν το εισαγωγικό instrumental), φέρει τον τίτλο "From Hell I Rise" και "βγήκε" μέσω της δισκογραφικής εταιρείας Reigning Phoenix Music (στην Ιαπωνία από την Ward Records) σε cd, βινύλιο κασέτα και σε ψηφιακή μορφή.

Ακούμε τον Kerry King στην κιθάρα, τον Mark Osegueda (Death Angel) στα φωνητικά, τον Phil Demmel (ex-Machine Head, ex-Vio-lence) στα τύμπανα, τον Paul Bostaph (Slayer, ex-Forbidden, ex-Testament, ex-Exodus) στα τύμπανα και τον Kyle Sanders (Hellyeah, ex-Medication) στο μπάσο...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Slayer’s co-founding guitarist Kerry King is one of the most instantly recognizable and well-respected musicians in thrash / punk / metal, and over the past near - 40 - years, has pioneered some of the most brutal and revolutionary music ever created.

King wrote or co-wrote some of Slayer’s most beloved songs including "Mandatory Suicide", "Repentless", "Hell Awaits", "Disciple" and "Raining Blood".

Known for his allegiance to the Raiders, his love of snakes, and his taste for Jagermeister, King is outspoken, opinionated and authentic to the core.

Metal flows in King’s veins, he knows how to write what he writes, and he has no interest in changing that. In perpetuity, Kerry King is a self-proclaimed "metal kid".»
