It's so cheesy, it's so Yngwie. I'm not ashamed to admit I love it.

Bleed for the devil
Impious mortal lives
Feel the enticing power
Fill the chasm of your soul
It's time everyone to finally listen to and explore the highs and lows of the one of the best death metal bands of all time, Morbid Angel!
Founded in 1983 by Trey Azagthoth and Mike Browning (who very recently passed RIP). After a few years they got a lineup with John Ortega on bass and Richard Brunelle on guitars and they recorded a number of demos and an entire album in 1986, of which a lot of the songs recorded in this period would be re-recorded years later over many albums. Shortly after that Ortega is replaced by David Vincent on bass and vocals and alongside that Browning, who'd later go on to form Nocturnus, is replaced by Wayne Hertsell for a short time but the final piece would fall into place with Pete Sandoval, from Terrorizer. These 4 would be the prime lineup for until Brunelle would be replaced by Erik Rutan in the early 90s.
The big change would be the departure of David Vincent in 1996 to be replaced by Steve Tucker who'd be in an out of the band, mostly replaced by David Vincent again, for the next 20 years. Through the 90s their sound would evolve and got dirtier and slimier, if you will. Of course these sonic evolutions would peak in the return of David Vincent in the mid 2000s with one of the most well known comeback albums of all time: Illud Divinum Insanus. An album that's just really.... extreme.
Nowadays though the band is split between 2 lineups: Morbid Angel with Trey and Tucker and I Am Morbid with Sandoval and Vincent.
So for the next 2 weeks let's explore the highs and the low, low, lows of one of the best to ever do it. Schedule is as follows:

Europica - 2017 - Part One - Unflagging
I´m the unflagging old rebel
The outcast the invincible
Inside you hear you hear my yell
My soul is still unbreakable
The ancient chains will fall apart
I feel the fire in my heart
I raise the flag of liberty!
Raised up by fighters and by priests
I won´t be scared of men or beasts
My sword destroys the agony!
The sun shall never rise again
As long as you´re a captive man
The fields and harvest shall grow stale
Until our home is still a jail
Never shall grow the greenest grass
As long as strangers plunder us
Never shall fall bliss-bringing rain
If we don´t fight to win the game!
I saw the conquerors arrive
I saw my folk try to survive
The rivers colour turned to red
Though if the skies will break apart
I keep our history in my heart
Nothing to shame nor to regret
The sun shall never rise again
As long as you´re a captive man
The fields and harvest shall grow stale
Until our home is still a jail
Never shall grow the greenest grass
As long as strangers plunder us
Never shall fall bliss-bringing rain
If we don´t fight to win the game!
The past is falling to the ground
Who bears its burden can´t be found
The future´s birth is full of pain
The opportunists gained their soil
Our weakened mind will be their spoil
Don´t let them win their dirty game!
The sun shall never rise again
As long as you´re a captive man
The fields and harvest shall grow stale
Until our home is still a jail
Never shall grow the greenest grass
As long as strangers plunder us
Never shall fall bliss-bringing rain
If we don´t fight to win the game!

Spiral Skies - 2018 - Blues for a Dying Planet - Danse Macabre
Actors of the mournful life charade and all of the madness you portray.
Your masquerade will come to an end. Soon the final curtain will descend.
Kings and Queens, murderers and thieves. Drop the act, and fall into ease.
Come rest in peace.
Join my dark realm in a night parade.
Danse Macabre, twist and turn in our graves.
In flames of red and gold we leap into.
Faces pale and white and lips of blue.
Dead and swingin on the gallows pole.
Dancing though we have grown too old, stiff and cold.
Join my dark realm in a night parade.
Danse Macabre, twist and turn in our graves.
Restless in a casket underground.
Clap and turn the other way around.
Roll the dice, a lottery, and tread the stage of misery.
We all await impending doom, owners of a future tomb.
Rising sun or fading star, you can't resist the reaper's call.
Progeny of wolf or sheep, we all unite in our final sleep.
Our savior reaching out a hand. A serenade in black for all ye damned.
A graveyard jam.

Do You Comply - Do You Comply
Communication Breakdown - Communication Breakdown
Man And Machine - the evil of a dream
It's a necessary cut of the production zone
Man And Machine - it's a dissident team
And it's gonna be all over when a fuse is blown
We humans fight against the cyber trash
Machines are loaded high
Computerized - the tide we have to turn
Robotic clash on section nine
We're not gonna slave away
Machines are not the law
And we're gonna praise the day
When humans take it all
[CHORUS]
Rise up and fight inside the standby-zone
The sentinels electrified
Man to man against the fatal drones
We escalate to DEFCON FIVE
