It’s a Massacre in the First World To go down in infamy? Spread dismay disarray? We’ll all remember their name After they blow you away. Away! It’s a Massacre in the First World So keep your children near Live your lives in fear Will the system keep you safe When they take all guns away? No.

( R. Carlisle, A. LeBonte, F. Cambell ) You said the only way to beat the system was by working from within Now you’ve climbed the ladder but decided to join in A casualty? A traitor? Just a system fucking pig Think you set out to save the world but just let the bastards win You think they’ll always win Time and again Apathetic You’re just another Liberal Bastard Your dreams became lies as their lies became your truth What happened to the “radical”, outspoken in your youth? You’ve fetishized the poverty from which you’ve never know Ashamed of the privilege from which your seed was sown You’re just another Liberal Bastard Just another fucking one of them.

about

12 UNRELEASED TRACKS (w/ lyrics included) from DECAY A.D.
__________________________________

These recordings were already over a year old when they first came to surface after the band's breakup in late 2014. Originally planned as a full length cassette (or 12" vinyl) release to add to the Decay After Death catalog; the band prematurely broke up before it's release date and the album became stagnant. The album isn't fully mixed or mastered due to the breakup but it makes a super pissed, hard hitting, raw, full length recording.

What's left is12 anthems that are 100% punk as fuck to the very core. Twelve rare, obscure, politically charged songs that aren't afraid of confrontation, using witty rhetoric;... all while embracing chaos, nihilism, and total fucking anarchy with a serious attitude problem. Twelve tracks from the beginning of the "no privacy, NDAA signing, civil liberties trampling, remote controlled war" era that was setting up Mr. Trump's grand appearance.

This free album is dedicated to the punx. This is dedicated to all that have shown support at the gigs and on the road in the midwest & east coast from 2009 to 2014. Donations are appreciated but aren't necessary. Download as you will. Bootleg if you want. Spread word.

If you're a label and interested in releasing this, contact us. (Austin)
