2nd track of the Cicatrized EP.
lyrics
You spin your web of smiles and lies upon your prey
Gleefully greet them with a blade as they look away
A cynical masquerade perverting every day
You're a slithering fucking snake hissing away
With a tongue of hate
Breeding hidden pain
Never leave a stain
Singing voices bring the silent death rain
Cultivate your lies in savior's disguise
What the market sells the grazing herd buys
Behind the gold and the wine
Death is the bottom line
Despair now, you've sold yourself
And your death is the bottom line
(and you'll choke)
For just a little more you'll surely save the world
For your halo on the news you're an angel
For a nickel and a dime you will slit my throat
Just for you the children suffer, bleed and burn
Breeding hidden pain
Never leave a stain
Singing voices bring the silent death rain
Cultivate your lies in savior's disguise
What the market sells the grazing herd buys
Behind the gold and the wine
Death is the bottom line
Despair now, you've sold yourself
And your death is the bottom line
The black heart beats blood on you and I
Repent; the bodies burning
They are a silent reaper
Behind the gold and the wine
Death is the bottom line
Despair now, you've sold yourself
And your death is the bottom line
Gleefully greet them with a blade as they look away
A cynical masquerade perverting every day
You're a slithering fucking snake hissing away
With a tongue of hate
Breeding hidden pain
Never leave a stain
Singing voices bring the silent death rain
Cultivate your lies in savior's disguise
What the market sells the grazing herd buys
Behind the gold and the wine
Death is the bottom line
Despair now, you've sold yourself
And your death is the bottom line
(and you'll choke)
For just a little more you'll surely save the world
For your halo on the news you're an angel
For a nickel and a dime you will slit my throat
Just for you the children suffer, bleed and burn
Breeding hidden pain
Never leave a stain
Singing voices bring the silent death rain
Cultivate your lies in savior's disguise
What the market sells the grazing herd buys
Behind the gold and the wine
Death is the bottom line
Despair now, you've sold yourself
And your death is the bottom line
The black heart beats blood on you and I
Repent; the bodies burning
They are a silent reaper
Behind the gold and the wine
Death is the bottom line
Despair now, you've sold yourself
And your death is the bottom line

about
Mekanism Finland
Mekanism is a five-piece rock act whose music is built around fiery rock and metal riffs infused with pop sensibilities. The
emphasis is on clean vocals, but we do employ the occasional aggressive scream and shout for an added balls factor.
Massive metal riffs interwoven with beautiful choruses create the atmosphere that Mekanism is all about:
an icing of vulnerability on a cock rock cake.

The Decipher Volumes
by Neurotechsupported by 6 fans who also own “Death Is the Bottom Line”
Pour The Decipher Volumes, Wulf compile les deux premiers opus de Decipher sortis en 2012 et en ajoute un troisième. Vrai pas en avant par rapport à Antagonist, l'objectif de cette compilation n'est pas de déchiffrer une machine ou un ordinateur : Neurotech se déchiffre lui-même, ouvrant progressivement son cyber metal à une sorte d'electronica metal et ça se remarque par les voix — celle de Wulf devenant de plus en plus humaine, chantée, et celle cristalline de Tanja Ravljen. No Turning Back.

Infra Versus Ultra
by Neurotechsupported by 5 fans who also own “Death Is the Bottom Line”
Comment un artiste peut changer à ce point tout en restant lui-même ? C'est une question que vous vous poserez sûrement en écoutant Infra Versus Ultra qui pourrait faire passer Antagonist pour un lointain souvenir. Adieu les cris robotiques, adieu le cyber metal abrasif : Wulf adopte le chant clair et les ambiances futuristes ("The Longest Time", "When the Night Falls") tout en restant industriel ("Transcendantal"). Peut-être que, hypnotisés, cette question n'aura pas le temps de surgir en vous.

Dans The Elysian Symphony et The Halcyon Symphony, Wulf a commencé par mettre sa voix de côté ; puis il a estompé les frontières entre metal et electro dans Stigma. Evasive termine cette mutation : cet album entièrement instrumental laisse la part belle à une electro industrielle et atmosphérique. Les fans de Neurotech de la première heure seront sûrement dépaysés voire déstabilisés mais il ne suffira que de quelques minutes pour vouloir fuir avec Wulf vers ce monde de trance mélodique céleste.
