Meshuggah " Bleed "



MESHUGGAH    "  BLEED  "

Beams Of Fire Sweep Through My Head
Thrusts Of Pain Increasingly Engaged
Sensory Receptors Succumb
I Am No One Now Only Agony

My Crimson Liquid So Frantically Spilled
- The Ruby Fluid Of Life Unleashed

Ripples Ascend To The Surface Of My Eyes
Their Red Pens Drawing At Random, At Will
A Myriad Pains Begotten In Their Wake
- The Bastard Spawn Of A Mutinous Self

The Regurgitation Of My Micro Nemesis
- Salivating Red At The Prospect Of My Ruin, My Doom

Malfunction The Means For Its Ascent
Bloodletting The Stringent Voice To Beckon My Soul
So Futile Any Resisting Tension
As Death-Induced Mechanics Propel Its Growth

The Implement, The Device Of My Extinction
- The Terminating Clockwork Of My Gleeful Nane
The Definitive Scourge Of Its Mockery
- The End-Art Instruments Lethality Attained

Heed - It Commands, Heed My Will
Bleed - It Says, Bleed You Will

Falling Into The Clarity Of Undoing
Scornful Gods Haggle For My Soul
Minds Eye Flickers And Vellicates As I Let Go
Taunting Whispers Accompany My Deletion

A Sneering Grin, The Voice Of My Reaper
- Chanting Softly The Song Of Depletion

La prima volta che ho ascoltato questa canzone sono rimasto a bocca aperta. Ho amato alla follia fin da subito il suo ritmo all'apparenza semplice, ossessivo e dannatamente efficace. La sua semplice follia è geniale. E in generale tutto "ObZen", a cominciare dalla meravigliosa copertina, è stupendo. Forse, per certi versi, il capolavoro dei Meshuggah e per chi scrive leggermente superiore a "Destroy Erase Improve", geniale lavoro del 1995 che ha fatto conoscere i Meshuggah al mondo intero. "ObZen" : intenso, folle, disturbante, coinvolgente.
