Cheated through shady ways Even straight to your face Civil rights don’t exist We’re all on death list You’re now so amazed So confused and betrayed. All your faith now is lost And wait for the worst. They need you shocked and totally stunned Favored raise the bill, always you fund They smooth the way to your disgrace Heroes lie to you, lie straight to your face Straight to your face Running a death race Straight to your face It’s the coup de grace… Vivid feelings of dread… It’s the beast that you’ve fed, Can’t be kept inside... And eats you alive. They need you shocked and totally stunned Favored raise the bill, always you fund They smooth the way to your disgrace Heroes lie to you, lie straight to your face

Dignity Dies 03:05
Years of fear Depression is clear The vultures rule Their dreadful tool Twenty one days in prison today, Outside is snowing, the sky is gray Precisely as her age, four weeks at line, Tortured, battered, with pain aligns. Militarized everyday life A reason to stand a motive to strife Into exile dignity dies With lies, with cries and demise Censored reflections Sober directions Blasted unasked A nation in cast Brutal spasms all over her form Bruised and completely deformed The ears are ringing, she’s almost deaf Alone and confused, she waits for her death Militarized everyday life A reason to stand a motive to strife Into exile dignity dies With lies, with cries and demise Twenty four slain Roads are bloodstained Smothered breaths By fire and death Is not the first neither the last, In dark wet cells, with no one to trust. Determined to live, obstinate to hold. On fiery streets, real life unfolds. Militarized everyday life A reason to stand a motive to strife Into exile dignity dies With lies, with cries and demise

Every single night on the edge of the bar Covered with the aura of a rocking star You show up when the fun’s going bad Your tricky presence just turns me mad A glass of gin and two rocks inside Shares my worry as you stand by my side But this is the night, sets me on fire I drag on my cig but can’t ease my desire I’ll find all the ways to delay sunrise. Honey there’s nothing else to analyze. Fuck it all, devils breed and kiss me more. That’s all the magic that I’m searching for. You belong to me and to no one else Famous for the hearts that you melt Your feelings have turned into dust But I search for scar living lust Come on baby lets sin in the night Without some action we would have died As our city changing shape From all of our doubts we will escape… I’ll find all the ways to delay sunrise. Honey there’s nothing else to analyze. Fuck it all, devils breed and kiss me more. That’s all the magic that I’m searching for. You’re lethal but I can’t resist You are the proof that devil exists Women like you will ever succeed But always Nancy will be looking for Sid…. I’ll find all the ways to delay sunrise. Honey there’s nothing else to analyze. Fuck it all, devils breed and kiss me more. That’s all the magic that I’m searching for.

Free 03:05
You’re free to drool when you’re bored You’re free to shop what can’t afford You’re free to work and left unpaid. You’re free to shut up and be afraid… You’re free to bruised into malls mob You’re free to stay without a job You’re free to waste a life in pubs You’re free to inject lethal drugs Oppression, Insurrection Subversion, Recreation You’re free to get full of tattoos You’re free to ignore all the abuse You’re free to have naked greed You’re free to get dizzy from weed You’re free to die in “liberating” wars You’re free to be an honored corpse You’re free to make the rich richer You’re lost if don’t see the big picture… Oppression, Insurrection Subversion, Recreation

Mon-ster 03:38
Time is tricky, now I see I'm not who I used to be Inside-out I feel it’s cold A monster that I can’t control Teach me how to fight it Teach me how to fight it For this monster eats my soul How do I take control? Never brought it out to light, Since forever in my life Feeds on me and it won't stop I can't kill it, I'm screwed up Show me how to fight it Show me how to fight it Cause it digs my soul a hole How do I take control? Need to present my monster Maybe then I’ll be master Really, who would understand? It's a thought I cannot stand Tell me how to fight it Help me now to fight it For it drags me down, I fall How do I take control? Fuck it….

Birthplace 03:23
It has no laws, it has no rules Senseless for the logical fools But its working actually perfect On its web the truth lies naked Walls are stamped with endless worry Single acts, the same old story Human wrecks here are located The gilded era is terminated Avenues of excess, alleys of demise Leeches are making money with lies Charming, glamorous in somber contrast The rich are gorging, the rest dying fast Avenues of excess, alleys of demise Oppositions covered with perfect disguise Charming, glamorous in somber contrast Poverty and wealth, both are amassed Nothing binds me to this place My past life I can’t trace With what I‘ve found my mind reacts Tones of a mess and all collapsed What I have left doesn’t exists I am a man who can’t resist Streets are now so dark and empty So repulsive unsafe and dirty Avenues of excess, alleys of demise Leeches are making money with lies Charming, glamorous in somber contrast The rich are gorging, the rest dying fast Avenues of excess, alleys of demise Oppositions covered with perfect disguise Charming, glamorous in somber contrast Poverty and wealth, both are amassed Crumbly bedrocks are collapsing Demolition of the everlasting And it rages beneath my skin Like explosions made within

Urbanized 03:07
Bright nights and streets so loud Lonesomeness inside the crowd Passers-by are looking wary Moving past always in hurry People heaped at blocks of flats Daily life is run with rats Everyone has no one to talk Despite are dozens at the block Sleep in distress. With soiled caress, Night lulls us all at execution wall Cardboard boxes instead of homes The heroin on the streets roams Thousands of jobless youth Matters of disgraced truth In a lane a beggar’s fainted With the progress he’s related Starving, he’s freezing to death A sacrifice to produce wealth… Sleep in distress. With soiled caress, Night lulls us all at execution wall. Go!!! Walking down to the old hangouts Listless patrons are boosting my doubts What I look for it cannot be found It’s on the air, I am on the ground I want to leave miles away These streets rush my own decay My only mate is a bottle of gin The only one that make me grin Sleep in distress. With soiled caress, Night lulls us all at execution wall.

The Alleys 02:44
After job go meet the boys At the joint and make some noise Hard day ends with one desire Turn on Marshal, plug the wire Here is G, here is O, come and see the alleys grow Here is K, he is OK, bangs the drums, smashes the day Victor S with his nerves, has the flame, supports the game Lets spit the hit, success and fame, we have our rules, we stay the same Bastard sounds from the amps Walls are shaking by the blasts Distorted melodies and riffs Taste the craze, feel the bliss Here is G, here is O, come and see the alleys grow Here is K, he is OK, bangs the drums, smashes the day Victor S with his nerves, has the flame, supports the game Lets spit the hit, success and fame, we have our rules, we stay the same Scratch the strings until the dawn Let the neighbors bitch and moan The DBs are on the sky Keep it real keep it high!!!! Here is G, here is O, come and see the alleys grow Here is K, he is OK, bangs the drums, smashes the day Victor S with his nerves, has the flame, supports the game Lets spit the hit, success and fame, we have our rules, we stay the same

78 Days 03:44
Peacemakers arise storming from the skies Horizons are ablaze for 78 days Hospitals and schools razed by their rules On factories and roads stray bombs explode Caravans and trains blasted by the planes National wide terror, kids death ain’t an error Bomb cells of titanium with depleted uranium Poison all the ground, destruction’s all around Accusers now hush, with deadly weapons rush Mouthpieces applaud disorient the crowd Reasons were a bust, a nation turns to dust It’s done for destitution, their ways of solution. Belgrade’s on fire, Novi Sad‘s on fire Pristine is on fire, death toll’s rising higher… New era has begun, after the carnage done Targets are fulfilled, destroyers now build Twenty years later, hypocrisy seems greater The butchers are free men and “liberate” again Accusers now hush, they don’t even blush Mouthpieces applaud; these acts are will of god… This world was never broken, it was built this way And we are nothing more than expendable materials Accusers now hush on this inhuman crush Mouthpieces applaud, soon will be ignored

Fire on Ice 04:12
Wander around its blocks Sirens smoke and cops Cut through Sofienberg Park Where you’ve left your mark Grünerløkka lies ahead Your vision’s in my head East side of the river No way to reconsider… Miles and miles far from home I am roaming streets unknown Wasting all my days and nights Trying to start a fire on ice Daylight is going down Kongens gate to downtown Dark on the city spreads Bjørvika sprawls ahead Streets became so bright But they can’t kill the night “She Lies” floats in the air And you are nowhere… Miles and miles far from home I am roaming streets unknown Wasting all my days and nights Trying to start a fire on ice

Congratulations to the one who made it that far He must be one of a kind and reached for the stars Years gone by so here all we are Chasing glamour and fame, craving vanity calls Are we dead enough? I don’t mind the way things come I just keep thinking, keep thinking Are we dead enough? Life is greedy and shameless as fuck It’s never ever satisfied till it gets enough At the end of the day it’s always the same Bow your head down and wait for the change Are we dead enough? I don’t mind the way things come I just keep thinking, keep thinking Are we dead enough? I can’t remember who put the gun in my hand He looked at me and smiled to comfort my heart This gun is loaded with one bullet and my name on it He said to me “don’t you get it son..? You are dead enough...” We are dead enough I don’t mind the way things come I just keep thinking, keep thinking We are dead enough

about

This is the debut album, entitled "Electricity". The recordings, production and mix took place at Animal Farm Studio during late September 2017 and February 2018. This album is a result of funny moments and struggles between the members of the band and the sound engineer.. For that reason it is a creative project full of energy and electricity.
