Tracklist

1. Trinitrotoluene Negation – 01:42 >

Artillery shells rain upon us like incendiary hatred ICBM detonation - trinitrotoluene negation War for fossil fuel Expenditure of mass munitions The annihilation of modern Mesopotamia Infrastructure bombed out, decades without sanitation The sky is blocked out in clouds of shattered concrete A tidal wave of shrapnel - metallic shard decapitation Streets of splattered children Truckloads of their deceased relations ...a desert baked in gore The repeated explosive impact Of guided missiles pound the city Cementing western culture As "The Great Satan" for years to come Bombers "martyred" in their suicides In explosive acts of holy revenge Cadaverous metropolis This cycle will bring the world to its end

2. Blistered Dejection – 01:03 >

Floating through a garbage life Sweatpants caked with logs Fragile homebum dejection Blistered lips, teeth are gone Slept in my car, stole my antenna Chasing another rock - limping off with my bike ...a jaw that will never re-align Your life is rocked up - lurking The intense fervor of whining self pity Excuses pile up like so many aluminum cans Slow motion shifty crackmonger existence Removed from any semblance of a waking life Death would be a step up Rocked up - death

3. Grinder of Fools – 01:46 >

The fearsome sight of a man possessed Swinging a chain of shrunken heads Sharpener of ribs - eater of toes - swallower of eyes Your feet are smashed With a sickening clamor Ran through with a spear Unceremoniously hacked The axe has swung - the heads will fall Grinder of fools The fitting of the glove The mounting of the gauntlet An axehandle, notched with many tales to tell Negation of your worldly existence Reduced to meat, meat for dogs Cleaver of scalps... grinder of fools

4. Klaxon of Puzzlement – 01:14 >

Crippling cognitive dissonance Rotation of disjointed thoughts Total erasure of clarity Passing time in an elevated blackout Buried alive in a mound of dry dirt Blasting klaxon of puzzlement Blasting klaxon of puzzlement Won't see a single task through Cliffs of anxiety, gritted teeth Crippling cognitive dissonance Shroud of bewilderment Blinding the straight path

5. Renegade Incompetence – 01:10 >

Souls of renegade incompetence Trifling fucking humans You're not one of God's special creatures ...he does not exist You're just another worm Legions of motherless scum Pushing me to the god-damned brink Fast track to an aneurysm Innocent escape from a world of idiocy You're not one of God's special creatures ...he does not exist You're just another fucking worm Fast track to an aneurysm ...an innocent escape from a world of idiots

6. Dissolution of Rights, Part 4 – 01:50 >

Years of wiretaps; fiendish extermination Eradication of free thought Morse code deliberation Trust, subcutaneous The organizing of workers Community organizing construed as terror Demonize, discredit and demoralize Bait and switch, divide and conquer Dissolve our rights Raging campaign of internal terror Delineate the destruction of dissent Lying testimonies In a court of conservative crucifixion False message perversion Sidetracked into infighting Demonize, discredit and demoralize Bait and switch, divide and conquer Dissolve our rights Raging campaign of internal terror Delineate the destruction of dissent Bombardment of the collective unconsciousness With bastard xenophobic lies Keeps our crusade holy and our complacency diffuse

7. Simultaneous Assassination – 00:48 >

They cornered him in the marketside cafe And wallpapered it with his fucking brains The cars ignition ripped a mighty blast And splattered the remains of a 'very important man' Unknown assailants - the slayings simultaneous Every hit strategic - the butchery of regents Deadly fallout - neutron activation Mass demise by reinforced radiation

8. Up in Flames, Down in a Sea of Bullets – 01:34

9. Crippled Mercilessly by Homemade Bombs – 01:28 >

Stalking streets, occupying force Foreign children killed by our bombs I.E.D. retaliation - shrapnel skull, no tales to tell Landmine dislocation - car bomb annihilation "God is great" - a smoking crater "Mission accomplished" - oil landgrab Nine years in and going strong Suckered into a stupid death By smiling pricks in recruitment posters Crippled mercilessly by homemade bombs Wandering the streets in military fatigues Demoralized by violence, jaded with life Democracy is delivered by an I.C.B.M. Get 'er done, glamour shot, another senseless death Plastic leg, "he was a hero" A steaming pile of human guts ...he might be home, but he's never coming back

10. The Story of Ricky – 01:24

11. Fatal Confusion – 00:50 >

A small misstep, leg crashing through Cleaved in half as the steam line breaks The wrench slips, crossing phase to phase ...arc blast, molten metal Blows your torso through Toeboard kicks up, 90 feet drop Into the yawning separator's blades When they swept you off of the furnace's walls They had to I.D. you by your keyring Your final face, a mask of shock ...not even enough time to whimper Your cranium caves in with an awful sound The result of your fatal confusion The doors to the factory, locked from the outside ...the burning stench of the seamstress's flesh Unsteady hands on the cutting torch Cut the piece of angle, three fingers, too Didn't see the windsock blow ...chlorine gas fills your lungs "That rigging's seen better days" Smashed prostrate by eighteen tons

12. Devious Persecution and Wholesale Slaughter – 01:10 >

Stemming the tide of a fascist state ...a partisan resistance Double crossed by informants Jailed, and put to death Execution by pigs - devious persecution Execution by pigs Execution by pigs - rounded up like cattle Devious persecution - and wholesale slaughter

13. Port of Chicago Disaster – 00:44

14. Final Act of Recalcitrance – 00:56

Total length: 17:39
