    We originally put this together for a CD on Slap A Ham in 2001
    and then we broke up :(
    and then a decade later, we got back together :)
    and Emetic records re-released this on both CD and vinyl in 2011
    and several years later, Throne records asked to re-re-release it on vinyl only
    and then we broke up again :(
    and now we have a pile of records to sell :)?

    Convenient gatefold design makes joint rolling a cinch!

    Recorded at a frequency imperceptible to the ears of child clowns!

Dependent upon rape To survive every day But your victim is dead And she gave you life Jones for the fuel, Oil Junkie Killing for more, like a fiend Stumble and fall, weak and sick Tapped the vein once too often Oil Removed Human Failure
2.
Extraction 03:08
Equal in weakness No Co-Reparation We must distance ourselves from one another Flee what we need in search of how to get it Self-removed and stranded Breathing in own breath isolated spirit, eyes cast towards the bottom back turned to the surface drowned in self contempt
3.
Encasing 03:08
A hull of skin covered by anything shall be labeled, grouped and judged Once adorned, the body becomes a showcase Built by the need to belong Filled with Self mistrust, a lonely human Peel the skin away, become inhuman Prey on everything, through displaced anger Lash out to find you only hurt yourself False sense of Self Importance Stripped away, naked and cold Weak and worthless, lack of meaning to be just like everyone else a human being - an animal stuck on earth- stupid and scared Trapped in your body- no escape Forced to face what you really are
4.
Useless 04:59
Useless human mind, searching for control Forced a weak creation into existence Gave it human form, such a tiny mind Then he wrote the words, "Ignorance is bliss" First, this God punished, then it turned its cheek Now it turns its back on the suffering No one asks why. Man is his own tormentor He looks to the sky for help He's punished by God's self-hatred, for man is his god himself
5.
Empire of shit, decaying. Human Existence: a step in the wrong direction, nature's worst mistake. I try to understand: Why does man see himself as the king of the Earth? It's so clear to see the human is primitive. Life has a purpose beyond its usefulness to human. I strain to dream of a world unhindered by human being. The sooner man destroys himself, the sooner life on Earth will finally be at peace.
6.
Stasis 04:29
Lay still amongst human rubble. Rest in cusp of weakness. Yearn to seize anything To relieve me of this sorrow. No control - endless cycle of nothing. Stripped of my will to live. Frozen in time. Raised to rot - the life of human, Withered to stone. All my thoughts are totally useless In this state of helplessness. Dormant and useless living waste. Imprisoned in silence, self erased. Negative substance in human state. Depleted by hatred the species fades Away.

Anti Human, Withdraw Reject Face and Feature Self Hate Skin and Eye Life Brings only Pain Gaffii Stick, only friend Bantha Beast Broken Mind Shattered Skin See through Metal Eyes Skin lies under wrap Regress, Grunting mouth Raised stick, beating down Human ways Life wastes Precious time Scorched by Double suns and Rotted, Blistered Sand

Evazan 00:13
The doctor: He doesn't like you. Moisture farmer: Sorry. The doctor: I don't like you either.

Gage 03:15
Peaceful creatures live with trees Branched together family Live with plant in unity Breathe their air and be set free. Harmlessness, Life in a cage Freedom and Innocence Punished for being alive Slaves Smoke Gage Free the mind, The body follows Rotted Human Soul Perpetuates Lifelessness Suffering Precludes Wisdom Life in Co-Existence
10.
Sith 03:30
My Heart, Black with Hate Reaches for you To bring you to my side and show you Darkness Make you understand Depression Crushing Spirit Rotting Milk runs through my veins Destroying Cells Reality negative My eyes see Black through Hate Mask. Peer inside and shed your fuckin’ smile. See why I hate you. I become destroyed.

Dianoga 05:08
Effectlessness Drowning, Sputter, Breathe. Nothing to Counter. Gasp, Control Lost. Choking on Oppression. Captive of Self. Damage, Uselessness. Lurk amidst mire brushing body, stain skin grasping, sprawling spreading. Creep at pace of slug. Shackled by your fear. Stale Lifeforce fades to gray.

Perverted Mind Malformed through time Made to find The need to masturbate You bought a torso And now you want to trade After you used it? You fucking freak. Porno!

No! Peaceful Planet, no weapons. I grow tired of asking, where is the rebel base? Dantooine! They’re on Dantooine. See, I told you she could be reasonable. Continue with the operation, you may fire when ready. WHAT?!?! Unaware, Life Destroyed No Last Chance Shattered remnants Suffering only in Lack Raped by Hate Empire’s rays Annihilate Aw, We come out of hyperspace into a meteor shower, Some kind of asteroid collision, its not on the charts. What's going on? (Chaos) Our Position’s correct, except, no Alderaan What do you mean? Where is it? Just what I’m trying to tell you kid, It’s been completely blown away.

Bric-a-Brac 07:49
Raise my head and all I see is gray Breathe so you can take my life away Steal my life as darkness turns to day I return to weakened state of slave In shackled suit, I’m worn away by strain As day wears on, I feel my body drain In warming hum, my softened mind may stray In lengthy slumber, broken body lay.

about
