I'm back with issue #16, a normal, no frills attached, RAW edition of Loud Lyrix, just a little blabber from me, and then into the lyrics... anyways... you lazy asses are pretty damn lazy you know that?! Fuck guys, c'mon! I had ZERO, count 'em... **0** submissions this week, you think that just 'cause of the survey that's exempting you from submitting?? Well no siree Bob! Snap to it, or pay the price, you will feel the wrath of your almighty Editor! :) Ok, anyways, that means that all of this week's songs are "Editorz Choice" so, if you have any complaints.... TOO BAD... send in some shit, or request it, or else get used to my tastes.... BTW.. I actually got something from someone.... WOW! I am amazed.. it's from Shimon Godes, a review of a Babes In Toyland concert he was at... hope you guys like it, I know I wish I was there!!! ;) Ok people.. just a little word about the listserv.... we've been having a couple of problems with it, and because of that, you guys got a spaced out issue #14, and fortunately, an OK issue #15.... hopefully, by the time you get this issue, I will have already remailed issue #14 to you all... sorry about that... anyways... I'm also in the process of setting up an 'INDEX' diskspace for Loud Lyrix on planet.org's listserv.... I'm gonna be storing all the back issues, the AD, the FAQ, and the PGP keys here... I will also be mailing you all instructions on how to retrieve these files if you want 'em... So hopefully that'll be a little better for all of you... another thing is late issues... sometimes, the mailer at the site that I access the Internet from goes down, and that means that when I mail the listserv to send out the latest issue, that mailing doesn't get there until the system is back up, so it can't mail the issue out to all of you... unfortunately this can happen sometimes, so if your Loud Lyrix is late in arriving, don't fret, don't mail me and cry about your Loud Lyrix... ok? Just sit tight, and the issue will get to you soon.. sorry about that... Well, this week I bought Slayer's "Haunting the Chapel" on CD, I found this rare item for $12.99 and I just HAD to snatch it up... the lowest that I've EVER seen a Slayer CD was $19.99, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity, anyways... this CD fucking GRINDS!! It's a three song EP, (with an additional track, "Aggressive Perfector"), it's got Chemical Warfare, Captor of Sin, and Haunting the Chapel..... fucking amazing stuff, I can't peel myself away from it... anyways, I just have a question for any of you Slayer fans out there, I've got the Show No Mercy cassette, and it ALSO includes "Aggressive Perfector", but it doesn't sound the same at all! Does anyone know if it's a remix or if it's on the Show No Mercy cassette at all?! It's listed in the liner's, but I dunno! Anyways, I've included "Haunting the Chapel" in this issue, plus "Tormentor" an amazing tune from Show No Mercy.... enjoy, and yes, I AM a Slayer freak... fucking August people.. August is the month for their new album to come out!!! No exact date set yet! Ok people, just one final word concerning the survey... I've notice a few minor errors with it.... one thing was that for the "Which rock video shows do you watch?" I forgot to include a none of the above option. And another thing was the question of whether you tape albums onto blank cassettes, lemme just tell you dudes to CHILL OUT man... fuck guyz, I ain't no NARC or some asshole sleazy record company exec, it was just that the M.E.A.T. survey had that question, and I thought I'd include it.. big deal! Don't worry if you say yes, I really don't care, it's just a question. Ok dudes, that's it... don't forget to get those survey's in, as of now, I have had 7 handed in, that's outta like 300 of you!! Hurry up! Issue #20 is right around the corner,.... ok guys, that's it... BTW! Guess what I just noticed... it was exactly four months ago on this day that I started Loud Lyrix... On March 19/94 I wrote the Loud Lyrix FAQ and the Loud Lyrix AD, and that's when this huge thing started... fucking amazing.. guys, thanks to you all dudes.... let's keep this thing goin' forever!!

The concert was awesome. Their LOOKS!!!! The drummer has wild Bob Marley type of hair (blonde...) and the coolest tatoo of a snake crawling down her right ankle, (they all played barefoot btw...). The drummer played like she just came out of the jungle and somebody gave her a drumkit and told her: "this is drums, now PLAY!!!" Tribal stuff, totally wild and wicked... The bassist is amazingly, incredibly sexy!!! She stood less than a meter from me (I was right next to the stage...). Her name is Maurine Herman, I got to talk to her a bit after the show (no, not enough to use my charms and....). She's a cool bass player as well, and what's most exciting - she does that Frank Zappa trick - lights up a cigarette, smokes it during a song and then sticks it in the space between the strings and the upper bridge (where the tuning keys are), so it looks like a candle... As for the show itself, they played most of the stuff from Fontanelle and the other album. The talked to the crowd a lot and were very nice. There was a lot of moshing and stagediving. Then when they played "Handsome And Gretel" (my favourite song, as you can guess from my posting...) I was headbanging so violently that I banged my head against the lamp post and passed out for a few moments... All in all the show was WILD!!!! Just what I expected... Uncool stuff: Some fucker stole the singer's purse (while they were playing), where she had her passport and $$$. Very very uncool!!!!! Also, the fucking bouncers were beating the shit out of the stagedivers, so bad that at one point the singer had to stop the song and "save" a fan from being beaten to death... ***************************** T H E E N D ******************************* Typed by: Shimon Godes -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ************* M O T H E R ' S G E T T I N G W E A K E R *************** by K I N G D I A M O N D Album: "Them" Tonight would be the last night that we had our tea That bloody tea, which sent us into ecstasy Yesterday Mother complained, feeling dizzy, all in pain Mother's getting weaker, looking paler day by day As morning came, she could not make it out of bed And Grandma's spell was getting straight into her head Not a single word, she didn't seem to be alive Getting weaker, looking paler day by day Then Missy came in and she led me by the hand I didn't want to go, Oh but I should have known Mother was barely conscious, why should I care Just looking forward to the next ordeal I think I heard My sister begging me to stay She gave me the phone, so I could call someone for help I simply let go of her hand, then I cut the wire Missy was crying as I left them both behind And Mother's getting weaker, Missy shouted at My back "I hate You" ********************* T O B E C O N T I N U E D *********************** Typed by: Lyrics Archive at ftp.uwp.edu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- *************************** T O R M E N T O R ***************************** by S L A Y E R Album: "Show No Mercy" Afraid to walk the streets In the coldness all alone The blackness of the night Engulfs your flesh and bones Hoping for relief >From the fear you feel inside Losing all perspective Of reality in the night (Chorus:) Running from shadows Blinded by fear The horror of nightfall Is ever so near I slowly surround you As terror sets in Are you afraid of the night I see the fright in your eyes As you turn and run But is your mind playing tricks On a body so very young Feeling as if no one cares The fear runs down your spine But I know I'll never rest Until I know you're mine (Chorus) Afraid to walk the streets In the coldness all alone The blackness of the night Engulfs your flesh and bones Feeling as if no one cares The fear runs down your spine But I know I'll never rest Until I know you're mine I know you're mine Too late to hide Too late to save your life Tormentor ***************************** T H E E N D ******************************* Typed by: The Lyrics Archive at ftp.uwp.edu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- *************************** A C E S H I G H ***************************** by I R O N M A I D E N Album: "Powerslave" There goes the siren that warns of the air raid Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne Got to get up for the coming attack.

Bandits at 8 O'clock move in behind us Ten ME-109's out of the sun Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them Heading straight for them I press down my guns Rolling, turning, diving Rolling, turning, diving, going in again Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high. ***************************** T H E E N D ******************************* Typed by: The Lyrics Archive at ftp.uwp.edu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- **************** D E A D E M B R Y O N I C C E L L S ****************** by S E P U L T U R A Album: "Arise" Land of anger I didn't ask to be born Sadness, sorrow Everything so alone Laboratory sickness Infects humanity No hope for cure Die by technology A world full of shit coming down Tribal violence everywhere Life in the age of terrorism We spit in your other face War of races World without intelligence A place consumed by time End of it all We're born With pain No more We're dead Embryonic cells Corrosion inside -- we feel Condemned future -- we see Emptiness calls -- we hear Final premonition -- the truth Land of anger I didn't ask to be born Sadness, sorrow Everything so alone Laboratory sickness Infects humanity No hope for cure Die by technology We're born With pain Suffer Remains We're born With pain Suffer Remains We're dead ***************************** T H E E N D ******************************* Typed by: Lyrics Archives at ftp.uwp.edu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ************************* T H I S L O V E ******************************* by P A N T E R A Album: "Vulgar Display of Power" If ever words were spoken, painful and untrue.

You keep this love, fist, scar, break You keep this love. I'd been the tempting one, stole her from herself. This gift in pain, her pain was life. And sometimes, I feel so sorry. I regret this the hurting of you. But you make me so unhappy, I'd take my life and leave love with you. - I'd kill myself for you, I'd kill you for myself - (Chorus) No more head trips. **************************** T H E E N D ******************************** Typed by: Death Incarnate -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ***************** H A U N T I N G T H E C H A P E L ******************* by S L A Y E R Album: "Haunting The Chapel" The holy cross Symbol of life Anticipate the lives of Christians born Speak of death The words of hate Anticipate the rules among the dead Hell has seen Priests condemned To bring forth the lord of the cross Strike twelve Raise the dead The chapel comes under attack The ghosts of dead Torment the priest Their altar will soon be destroyed Heaven's mass Turning black The church will belong to the dead Blackened magic And thus we're lost Lucifer will supreme The crystal ball Children of faith Their lasting eternal scream Those who never make the people scream Have no task for all of time Satan's form of soldiers stand in lust Destruction charged upon the cross Attacking there's seven ways to go Tormenting the priest, hell to the cross Haunting the chapel has to prevail Death will come to the house of God that failed **************************** T H E E N D ******************************** Typed by: Lyrics Archive at ftp.uwp.edu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ****************** R I D E T H E L I G H T N I N G ******************** by M E T A L L I C A Album: "Ride The Lightning" Guilty as charged But damn it, it ain't right There is someone else controlling me Death in the air Strapped in the electric chair This can't be happening to me Who made you God to say "I'll take your life from you!" chorus: Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flames Wait for the sign To flick the switch of death It's the beginning of the end Sweat, chilling cold As I watch death unfold Consciousness my only friend My fingers grip with fear What I am doing here? chorus: Someone help me Oh please God help me They are trying to take it all away I don't want to die Time moving slowly The minutes seem like hours The final curtain call I see How true is this?

And the music plays on, as the bride passes by Caught by his spell and the mariner tells his tale. Driven south to the land of the snow and ice To a place where nobody's been Through the snow fog flies on the albatross Hailed in God's name, hoping good luck it brings. And the ship sails on, back to the North Through the fog and ice and the albatross follows on. The mariner kills the bird of good omen His shipmates cry against what he's done But when the fog clears, they justify him And make themselves a part of the crime. Sailing on and on and north across the sea Sailing on and on and north 'til all is calm. The albatross begins with its vengeance A terrible curse a thirst has begun His shipmates blame bad luck on the mariner About his neck, the dead bird is hung. And the curse goes on and on at sea And the curse goes on and on for them and me. "Day after day, day after day, we stuck nor breath nor motion as idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean Water, water everywhere and all the boards did shrink Water, water everywhere nor any drop to drink." There calls the mariner There comes a ship over the line But how can she sail with no wind in her sails and no tide. See...onward she comes Onward she nears out of the sun See, she has no crew She has no life, wait but here's two. Death and she Life in Death, They throw their dice for the crew She wins the mariner and he belongs to her now. Then...crew one by one they drop down dead, two hundred men She...she, Life in Death. She lets him live, her chosen one. "One after one by the star dogged moon, too quick for groan or sigh each turned his face with a ghastly pang and cursed me with his eye four times fifty living men (and I heard nor sigh nor groan) with heavy thump, a lifeless lump, they dropped down one by one." The curse it lives on in their eyes The mariner wished he'd die Along with the sea creatures But they lived on, so did he. and by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom With heart he blesses them God's creatures all of them too. Then the spell starts to break The albatross falls from his neck Sinks down like lead into the sea Then down in falls comes the rain. Hear the groans of the long dead seamen See them stir and they start to rise Bodies lifted by good spirits None of them speak and they're lifeless in their eyes And revenge is still sought, penance starts again Cast into a trance and the nightmare carries on. Now the curse is finally lifted And the mariner sights his home spirits go from the long dead bodies Form their own light and the mariner's left alone. And then a boat came sailing towards him It was a joy he could not believe The pilot's boat, his son and the hermit, Penance of life will fall onto him. And the ship sinks like lead into the sea And the hermit shrieves the mariner of his sins. The mariner's bound to tell of his story To tell this tale wherever he goes To teach God's word by his own example That we must love all things that God made. And the wedding guest's a sad and wiser man And the tale goes on and on and on. ***************************** T H E E N D ******************************* Typed by: The Lyrics Archive at ftp.uwp.edu -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ok, that's it folks... remember about the listserv, I'll be sending instructions on how to use the diskspace as soon as I get it online, and remember not to freak out if your Loud Lyrix is late in arriving, and finally...
