Pilgrim Paige Hard-hitting, well-constructed Swedish death metal. I know, I know. "Oldschool DM worshippers operating out of Sweden? What a rarity!" Sure, it's a populous scene. But not everyone can get it right. These guys do. Worthy material here. \m/ Favorite track: Anthropophagus.

The night screams like a storm In the vortex of your soul It's digging like a worm Into your mind... like a pole (x2) Countin' the hours waiting Writhing in horror the darkness Infinite daylight no mercy Thoughts jubilant rotating (Repeat first verse) (Repeat second verse) The brain is spinning The nightmares winning Forever laughing The minutes clicking The clock is ticking In slow motion (x2) A tortured haunted sanity waits for the final test It's begging for forgiveness, it's begging for some rest (x2) (Repeat fourth verse) (Repeat third verse) The morbid angels of your soul await the final call And in the darkness of the night they wait for you to fall

Monomanic Mind (x2) The bough is plowing through the oceans vastness The wind is blowing in the large white sails From the look-out the men watch the endless sea And on the mast... shines and gleams a golden doubloon Monomanic Mind (x2) The bough is plowing through the oceans vastness The wind is blowing in the large white sails From the look-out the men watch the endless sea And on the mast... shines and gleams a golden doubloon Sitting in his cabin The captain awaits his demon Impatient pacing the deck But also with great expectations There she blows! Right ahead! The boats are lowered roar and pull! Sitting in his cabin The captain awaits his demon Impatient pacing the deck But also with great expectations Stand up! Give it to him! The harpoon is flying through the air Monomanic Mind... Monomanic Mind A fight that lasts for three whole days Blood and water sweat and spray And in the end the boats are gone Only the whale and Ismael remain

Licking his lips, a coated tongue Breath of insanity, deep in his lung Feverish eyes, guttural grunts Brains, blood, bones, flesh, skin and guts (x2) Waiting in the cellar, or around any corner Or in your home, his mouth full of foam (x2) Anthropophagus, sinks his teeth into human flesh Anthropophagus, grinds his victims into mash Anthropophagus, wants to try out something new Anthropophagus, that's why in his dreams he's dreaming of you! Nothing is sacred in his mind Somewhere in a cave he has built a shrine Collecting the skulls of his delicious meals Praying to them with deranged, horny squeals Anthropophagus (x4) Anthropophagus, sinks his teeth into human flesh Anthropophagus, grinds his victims into mash Anthropophagus, wants to try out something new Anthropophagus, that's why in his dreams he's dreaming of you!

A knife on the table, a saw in his hand He is the beginning, and also the end (yeah) His mind is twisted, his mind is jammed Welcome to Kito, the island of the damned He is the doctor, he's in command You will obey, he will demand A knife on the table, a saw in his hand He is the beginning, and also the end (yeah) His mind is twisted, his mind is jammed Welcome to Kito, the island of the damned He is the doctor, he's in command You will obey, he will demand First you'll meet zombies, they are everywhere Then there will be cannibals, go on if you dare The island's full of traps, 'n' venomous snakes too (If) you survive all this, his henchmen will get you Doctor Butcher, cold and grim Doctor Butcher, insane and bold In a simple laboratory, strapped onto a table You'll feel the doctor's wrath, from the grave to the cradle Doctor Butcher, cold and grim Doctor Butcher, insane and bold But soon his game is up, his greed has made him blind In fire he will perish, burning his twisted mind The island's full of traps, 'n' venomous snakes too (If) you survive all this, his henchmen will get you
