Rant 01:05
Set me free Light me on fire I’d rather burn alive then be a prisoner of my mind Can’t hold it in I’m running out of time Set up for failure Entrenched in doubt I can’t help but to stick my foot in my mouth My voice carries as I rant on Work myself up into oblivion Endless ranting Faster than I can think Warring mind Chaos is what I wreak Rip my thoughts out of my fucking skull Senseless rambling Lose all control Overstimulation that goes far beyond
2.
Host 01:19
You drain the life right out of me Feed off my vulnerability Lure me within your reach Latching on like a fucking leech I can feel them crawling around my brain Viciously invasive Vile infestation No stopping ’til all is consumed Forced to our knees and accept your doom They fester upon my thoughts Try to enforce their ways Hold my body captive Eating me alive from the inside out Reaving me of my soul Under dominion of contagions Rid me of these parasites Living in my fucking head
3.
BURDEN: One blink away Eternal exit Release the pain Rid me of this burden It’s too late Every inch of my energy is completely consumed by hatred and toxicity Abrasive gestures Grinding teeth Weary hands Hold my head in disbelief Constant grief Endless struggle Why the fuck do I even try? I’m hanging high I’m feeling low Drag me below Thoughts of future are ever so bleak Praise for the strong Demise for the weak Empty expressions Motionless stare Under the impression that you don’t care You never fucking cared I’m constantly at the end of the rope Swallow my pride until I choke Promising myself over again I’d release myself from this burden Shit of out luck Repeatedly falling face first I am stuck with this burden Forever confined to this curse LACK OF VIRTUE: Desperation when you’re put to the test Complete regression when I’m at my best No relation to my frustration What am I to do when my choices are misery or death I got nothing to lose The will to survive is all that I have left Staggering agony Things aren’t what they used to be Drowning in insanity The price I gotta pay to live What am I to say when I’m told it’s faith that I lack Left astray It is me that they want to extract I lack virtue What am I to say All odds against me They’re gonna put me away Damned if I don’t but I’m sure fucked if I do Fuck your virtue
4.
The endless wrath of tyranny A dismal void My reality Promises of hope are misconstrued Life of torment Relentlessly crude Deranged foundation eroded over time Over accumulation All a part of the design Consumed under reigns of an entity An immutable form that lives through the centuries Cycle of neglect The pain has nowhere else to go There’s no deterring The pain continues to grow Malignant existence that’s been forever rewritten Set in stone A life contrived and inflicted by thrones who rule the throne They’ll always find a way to exploit the misery Can death be the only option to end all this suffering?
5.
Swine 01:50
The powers that be We act as one Justify our shedding of innocent blood It ain’t easy working in the field Gotta do whatever to keep an oath to the shield Have everyone believe you’re our guardian of light Patrolling our streets while we sleep soundly at night I won’t be fooled by the obvious lie I’d sleep a lot better if you all fucked off and died They go against the oath I hope you all fucking choke It’s time for a swine reduction Taught to be threatened Trained to kill or be killed Invade and raid your homes Restrain you against your will I call for swine reduction Defenders of the system doing what they do best Serve and protect the rich But for us they could care less Display complete disdain to the highest degree They’re part of the cancer that is spreading the disease Prey off our communities while granted full immunity Murder rampant in our streets Do whatever the fuck they please Now I want to see these fuckers down on their knees When will the time come when we are pushed to our limits and we have reached our end? A constitution built on corruption Racist courtroom judges and crooked politicians We must understand They’re just one piece of the design with millions of other parasites enforcing the line We must rid of all swine
6.
No Escape 02:15
There’s no escape from the decrepit world or yourself Infernal hellscape inside of your mind Invasion of darkness takes over Reactions are stalled and delayed Complacency awaiting unfolds Manifestations of evil only our kind can create We must suffer through this retribution We must accept that there is no escape Time to face the truth as it stares into the depths of your soul No excuse can save you now Your salvation has been sold Time has run out No options to spare Can’t hide from hell cause you’re already there Can’t close your eyes and you can’t run away There’s no escape from this world of decay No escape No escaping this
7.
Scotoma 01:09
Mind is out of focus Delayed reaction Coerced into denial Subjected to illusions Surrender your consciousness to absurdity Enforce the walls built around reality Pick and choose what you believe is real Pay no attention to what has no appeal A vague spectrum painted black and white Its all out of sight Lack of experience Not my problem With no intentions to ever solve them What will it take for me to break down these barriers that separate honesty from trite and blurs the line between wrong or right and what it is meant to be Layers of conception run so thick You’re so easily tricked It blurs you out You’ll do whatever you can You’ll do whatever to blur it the fuck out
8.
Cast out Labeled infidel Damned forever in the delusive cell The sight of every day is sickening Tensions being pushed to the extreme We’re all lost Herded like cattle straight to the edge Forsaken for eternity I’m looking forward to the end Cast me to hell Send me below Damnation I plead I beg you for damnation Pray only for damnation I plead for damnation Don’t spare us our salvation We deserve damnation
9.
Psychosis 01:14
Violence beyond reason A maniac beyond help Sinister being Only here to cause bloodshed Deranged unhinged psychosis Homicidal madness No explanation Blissful ignorance with no limitations Psychosis What is the reason for your crude existence Repeat your rituals which drives your angst Harmful intentions Visceral chaos Compulsion to kill He is amongst us You are amongst us They are amongst us all The biggest threat is yourself Violence beyond reason A maniac beyond help Homicidal menace with no explication
10.
So Long 02:04
So long Farewell Wish I could say the time I spent here was swell But I can’t take any more It’s time to burn all the bridges and level the score Ive always walked alone in this world but I’d rather roam in darkness than conform to your realm of light You cannot save me I’ve tried saving myself but there was no hope in sight Basking in my hatred Deprived from the feelings I’ve kept inside I’ve let it consume me It overpowers and crosses every line What’s even the point to this life Hold your breath ‘cause its just a waste of time Constantly at battle with myself I’ve become my worst enemy So long Farewell Living a life of misery So long Farewell Get the fuck away from me

about

REEK MINDS - Malignant Existence LP (LUNGS-263)

In the tradition of fast as fuck 80’s hardcore that holds all the energy and none of the constraints, comes REEK MINDS with their debut full size. “Malignant Existence” is chock full of blistering speed and punishing sonics pushed to the absolute limit of the physical form. Just like their insane live shows, this will leave you sweating and thirsting and scared. If you ever fantasized about Void covering Negative Approach or Lärm doing Poison Idea, this is essential.

300 on black, 200 on white and 200 on translucent red 150gr vinyl housed in a 24pt jacket with lyric poster included. Recorded by Evan Mersky. Mastered by Will Killingsworth. Art by Cameron Thomas. Layout and lettering by Tam.
