UNTITLED: Ough I don’t need this fucking life I won’t live under your knife I am the one who shall Give you the tools that shall Make you a liar I am the one who shall Undo the chains now to set you afire AAAAAAAH, Ough I don’t need your soulless mask Won’t abide, blow it out your ass I am the one who shall Rebind your chains Now that your mind is fire I am the one who shall Dictate your thoughts now for I am Messiah For I am the I am the I am the Messiah I am your I am your I am your M.E.S.S.I.A.H. THE KILL: Comrades arise Tonight we ride The coast, she invites Our presence by night There will be blood There will be fights Come one come all Gold and glory tonight The storm it now comes Over the hill The arrows let fly Now in for the kill Screams of the dead Their faces of dread Now ripping and rending The scalps from the head My sword shall none spare As it flies through the air Ripping the harvest Your skull I now bear The storm it now comes, Oh what a thrill For I am that storm Now in for the fucking kill Fucking Kill

Horror from the mountain Blackened hollowed husk Hateful proclaimation Purpose turned to rust Legions upon legions Marching now to die Magicks now surround me Dominate, my warcry Horror from the mountain Metamorphic daze Warped and brokeback conscience Caught in mental maze Legions upon legions Awakened now at dusk Campaign desecration All is dust Woah, spreading my disease Woah, killing as I please Woah, minds now I fry Woah, ready now to die
3.	Banquet 06:19	lyrics	buy track
Terror reigns supreme Deep within your soul By captors you are taken For what you know not for Escape is futile Nothing you do will suffice Our eyes, the cult, see all The Serpent now demands your life Flayed alive Pinned upon the cross Crucified without mercy Readied for the slaughter Branded, marked for judgement Taken for the glory of one Vampiric eyes aglow The serpent now unfurling, undone A sacrificial feast for The glory of the damned End of the line All hope of life torn from your soul’s gaze Flayed alive Pinned upon the cross Crucified without mercy Readied for the slaughter To where have I been taken Where is my god Oh, now god please save me Am I the food for rot? Lowered into the fire I hear the chants and laughs My god, I beg please save me Deliver me from this wrath The ritual is done And now the rising sun Our fruits have come to bear And unto them we share Our fruits have come to bear A banquet now prepared Our fruits have come to bear And unto them we share Banquet Our Banquet
4.	Seven Days Gehenna 04:34	lyrics	buy track
History says, you’ll rue the day You fell, now into the gates Little did you know the sinner to burn Go to rot, Gehanna in flame Enter blazing lodge Mortuary Sacred acrid pit A sacrifice to God Words have been spoken, your oath has been broken Soul sentenced eternally maimed That’s what you get for your own benefit God says, Gehanna in flame Enter blazing lodge Mortuary Sacred acrid pit A sacrifice to God Sacrifice it, baby Seven Days Gehenna (x4) You walk the world, in your way Far behind your mask Lose yourself, intimate Behind the looking glass Then you find the world itself Begins to fall away In the pit of fiery You will meet your fate Meet your fate Seven Days Gehenna (x4) Seven Days Gehenna (x4)

At long last, Lawrence speed metal power trio Sarkatha unleash their first demo unto the world. This compilation of tracks, written and performed during the first year of The Sarkathenning, features the songs in their raw, unfiltered form in an attempt to capture the bands live sound during the Adrian Cullen era as much as possible, with some extra foul incantations added to ensure maximum sharpness and potency.
