ENSLAVIOR was heavy AF! This recording of the raw drums & guitar I recorded during the tracking for Uncivil Liberty shows how heavy our sound was & why we were popular in the San Francisco Bay Area underground thrash metal scene in the 90s.

My new recording project was cursed from the start!

2015 finalize songs / prepare for recording
2016 Trump runs for pres so I switch focus to making an anti-Trump video
2017 my shoulders dislocate

Severance
[available on YouTube]

1st verse:
Since the day that I was born
My future's been planned out for me
Appointed to my role and class
In our society
My limitations have been set
Of all I can and cannot do
And if I don't fight these prophecies
They will all come true!

ENSLAVIOR wasn't just thrash. We were about complexity/melody/versatility/unpredictability. We delighted in blowing minds with unpredictable changeups like Remnance. Frank and I both nail solos thick THICK with groove!

San Francisco Bay Area underground thrash metal is coming to rip your face off with vicious guitar riffs and thundering drums and bass, all packged with anger burning with the intensity of a Wolf-Rayet star!

Content to believe every word
We elect them with confident zeal
But honesty to them is absurd
And we gave them a license to steal!

They're just career criminals
Disguised by their suits and their ties
They treat us as if we're all fools
And feed us their self-serving lies

The hand of doom will strike
To set the corpse within us free
Destroyed by our own ignorance
As is our destiny

The fate of the world
Is in terrorists' hands
And they're preparing
To make their demands
With weapons that hold us
As prisoners of war
Madmen that view
Moter Earth as a whore!

We live
Tecno nightmare
We fight
Techno warfare
We live
Techno nightmare
We die
Techno despair!
