Kerry King - 'Toxic' (official music video)

Sanity implies
That there’s intelligence
All I ever find
Is pure incompetence
Laws are washed away
Society will bleed
Scorned and left to die
And now the mutant’s feed

Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinions
On other people’s lives

Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites

To your face they lie
Unleash and overthrow
Legal rights denied
And fall like dominoes
Hide behind the cloak
To change your way of life
Liberty revoked
A target for all time

Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people’s lives

Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites

Lead-Demmel

Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites

Biased policy
Aborting history
Exploding at the chance
With rabid arrogance

Lead-King

Words now weaponized
With violence criticize
Ignore the majority
And force feed insanity

Lead-King

Unleash hatred’s wrath
And social aftermath
You penance will be do
It’s time for my own fucking coup

Too many people
Spend too much time
Forcing their opinion
On other people’s lives

Toxic rhetoric
Toxic government
Toxic politics
Toxic hypocrites

Ο εκ των ιδρυτών των Slayer, Kerry King, αποφάσισε να εκφραστεί μουσικά παράλληλα με το Αμερικάνικο συγκρότημα και δημιούργησε (προ πενταετίας) προσωπικό σχήμα. Προ μηνός (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".»
