Grave Digger - 'Killing Is My Pleasure' (visualizer video)

As shadows fall
there’s a smile on my face,
unleashing the fury
in this unholy place.
raging fire
burns deep inside my soul
the realm of death
I’m out of control

I feel hate on my own
you will never die alone

Killing is my pleasure
in the dead of night
holding you close
is my sweetest delight
killing is my pleasure
and music to my ears
screams of despair
remain without fears

Echoes of pain
resonate through the air,
i am the iceman
with a merciless stare.
savage delight
in every life I take,
for the thrill of the hunt
I will never break.

Full length album νούμερο 22 για τους Grave Digger. "Kingdom of Skulls" ο τίτλος του νέου δισκογραφικού πονήματος των Γερμανών metallers και αναμένεται στην αυγή του νέου έτους. Οι Grave Digger υπάρχουν στην "πιάτσα" από το μακρινό 1980 και συνεχίζουν ακάθεκτοι μέχρι τις ημέρες μας...

Δελτίο τύπου: «There it is - the new Grave Digger single, "Killing is My Pleasure"... Musically, it’s based on a riff created by bassist Jens Becker in collaboration with guitarist Tobi Kersting.

The song's lyrics are inspired by the infamous mafia contract killer Richard Kuklinski, who was believed to have committed over 200 murders before his death in 2006.

Known as the “Iceman” due to his cold-blooded nature, Kuklinski had a family with three children and would leave his home every day like any ordinary “nine-to-five” worker.

Musically, the new single is a pure piece of Heavy Metal - no frills, just straight to the point. The chorus will drill itself into your head, and once you’ve heard it, it’s hard to shake off.»
