minusoneman2 Straight and precious punk- and hardcore-rooted filth grind with some mellow undertones here and there. Yip! Kills.

EyEmAsTeR I was kinda losing faith in the whole Grindcore scene...until I heard SANCTIONED. Like an even more steroidal version of DISRUPT, but with that Aussie Bombast that just can't be denied. This album blew my expectations right outta existence. NOW THIS IS FUCKIN GRINDCORE. Favorite track: Jaundice.

Void 02:03
Within the space between the bullet hits its target When the journey ends the flesh will be torn With a feeling of hatred never has revenge been sweeter No knowledge of my target as it’s not really there My mind plays tricks on me But there is no clarity I want to punish friends within an arm’s reach Between a bullet and a target
2.
Humanity 02:31
Ideals are peaceful History is violent Humankind is bred to fight To kill maim and destroy History always repeats War for territory War in the name of a god Or a false profit Ideals are peaceful History is violent Nothing ever changes until it’s too late Humanities wars are endless Wars nonstop over profits Humanity can be full of hate But maybe change can come
3.
Toxic 02:12
When I hear your words they bring out an instant dread in me When I see your letters on a page I am brought down instead Your thoughts are toxic Your words are selfish Only for you In it for yourself When you give an opinion the outcome is only for you Everything is really done to better things that suit you Toxic you Selfishness Narcissist I’m the fool Sucked right in Price is paid Your thoughts are toxic Your words are selfish Only for you In it for yourself Toxic
4.
Faceless 01:04
Procrastination suffocates what could have been A missed opportunity plays out in my mind Living with regret renders on for a lifetime Overtime your face disappears from my sight Living life like I’m inside a fishbowl Walking around like I’m treading water Memories fade Age of time Dissipate Face disguised Living underneath the black cloud When the cloud breaks out into showers of blood
5.
Television 00:57
Screaming out in the corner of the room with violence and hatred Television Beaming out from the corner of the room sending our useless information Television Love and hate Sending out subliminal messages that no one actually needs Television
6.
Whirlwind 01:33
A whirlwind of hatred is in within everyone A twister of knowledge fractures a bloodline Cyclonic infestation killing from the inside A strong gust of voices whispering the whirlwind Deadly deadly deadly bloodline Turmoil turmoil turmoil interest Whirlwind Thundering on with nonsense is spinning up hatred A small sized inconvenience brings frustration
7.
Jaundice 01:23
Stunned in a moment A moment in time Ripped to shreds from the inside Unable to move Scared to death from fright Ugly scenarios take away Inglorious bastards they may Jaundice Burned by an emotion An emotion of fright Feeling the jaundice cannot move Scared to death

Annexation 01:36
9.
Blocked 01:59
My mind is blocked Like a block on a facebook page I feel inane Useless with the pain Crushing load of customised insanity An intense degree of a fashioned negativity Death would be an acquittance Of my daily thought patterns Anger bought from such small things because I am blocked My mind is blocked, useless to give it up Sadness spreads right through to every part of the soul Crushed under a wall filled with negativity Blocked
10.
Fraud 01:07
All your values centred on a fraud an unknown entity Brainwashed by religion Hoping for a miracle Priest giving a sermon Taking money for their coffers Spending all your time with your faith Brainwashed to believe in an entity Believe in a fiction, a fraudulent commercial business It’s awash of paedofuckingphilia Fraud
11.
Cell 01:20
Staring at the walls Living in a dank cell Inside a dream Of ever seeing the outside world Locked away for the rest of your life Innocent of the crimes but your despised Put away in a closet Never will see real daylight Confined Shut away for your innocence Locked away for the rest of your life Innocent of the crimes but your despised All your appeals all fall through Left to rot in a prison in a living hell Staring at walls until you die Cell
12.
Afterlife 00:50
Some believe there is life after death I believe there is nothing when you die Death is the end All existence finishes up in time Reincarnation is a falsify Only death is the real existence No life after death

Punch Drunk 00:28
14.
Sectors 01:44
A scene that is all too clear A minor way to confirm death There are many ways to confirm this And other ways to bring about blood Smashing through sectors An unforeseen abundance of dark Cramming it into nothing Bring it out of the dark A vile sector that is not liked A vile sector that is much hated A vile sector who won’t conform Smashing through to a clearer outcome Smashing through sectors An unforeseen abundance of dark Cramming it into nothing Bring it out of the dark
15.
Stress 02:47
Situations bring it on thought patterns bring it up Humanity lives on it down inside Anger stirs when it’s applied danger lurks when it’s inside Let it out, let it reek Stressful, doubtful Anger and rage Tearful, gutful Emotional stage Turbulent, social, stress on Situations down low Violence applied Stress
