Vile

Vile is an American death metal band, formed in 1996 in Concord, California by guitarist Colin Davis (who is now the only original member in the line-up) and bassist Matt "Favor" Faivre, recruiting the rest of the band from the ranks of disbanded groups such as Lords of Chaos, Entropy, Sporadic Psychosis and Thanatopsis. They toured the United States and Europe several times since their inception in 1996 including with Cannibal Corpse in 2004. The band began recording a new album on January 25, 2009, with a view to a release towards the end of the year. In 2011, they announced that Willowtip Records will release their new album "Metamorphosis" in the US on November 15, 2011 and partner with Hammerheart Records in Holland for a European release in early 2012. more »

Great beast, possessor of light
Divine monster that sits upon the throne of the world
Hymns of mankind's rabid complacency sound in your name
Eyes of the daring, crystallise and share your gaze
Revel in chaos, feel it invigorate
Fire has cleansed the slate

Martyrs of the age assume fears dreadful shape
Proclaiming diabolical words to every ear on the earth
Setting minds on fire, driven to conspire
A sense of purpose awakens deep within
Knives are drawn, within the psyche
Those that refuse to see will be the first to bleed

There will be no blessing for the meek
Nature can't bear the weight of the weak

Great beast, I see through your nocturnal eyes
As every earthly angel walks blind in fright
The Shepard's dead, flock scattered to the wind
Left on their own, enemies replacing peers
They scream and shout, drowning all other voices out
Eaten one by one

Just stop and think, who stands to gain
To manipulate with manufactured hate and pain
One could never hope to steal the ocean whole
But drop by drop, patient calculations paying off

Cauterise the unbridled denominations of useless human thought
Watch all that divides our kind crumble at the source
Debris of false ideals crush the bones of those who flourish in hatred behind a mask of altruism
Cast them out, let them die

Bring light to the darkness
Expose the petty minded
Unity of humanity
Eradication of the weak
