| I'm Charming
Yeah I’m running off the rails
I’ve finally gone crazy
And the ground is spinning faster than my teeth could ever grind
I know it’s a shame when success does complain
But I don’t remember my name
In the absolute wrong I have made this place to lay my head
A reoccurring nightm |

За столь длинным названием стоит реальный исторический факт. В 1947 году в Лос-Анжелесе была убита молодая актриса, причем это убийство было совершено с особой жестокостью, а совершившего это злодеяние так и не нашли. Столь тщательный подход к выбору названия отразился и на музыке этой молодой американской группы – на протяжении 35 минут вас будут терзать забойные ударные, ураганные гитарные дуэли и бесконечная вокальная дуэль из типичного для дэта войса и скриминга. Немного шведского дэта, немного блэка, немного трэша, немного металкора – и перед нами предстает во всей своей грязной красоте “Miasma” от The Black Danila Murder. К качеству записи претензий никаких, к энергетике и подаче тоже, единственное, что подкачало, так это сонграйтинг. Увы и ах, но выделить песни сложно – они все сливаются в монотонную долбежку, и чтобы различить ближе к концовке начало следующей и концовку предыдущей вещи приходится напрягаться. Уверен, что как только ребята преодолеют эту проблему (а потенциал у них, безусловно, имеется), мы получим очень интересную группу с большими шансами на успех у публики.

I never trust I never rest
I’ve become another victim of this self-serving device
My cock does all the talking, my mouth now just for lie
I’m winding down to nothing
It’s suddenly so clear
I’m winding down to nothing
A human smoke that fills the air
What can you believe?
That is the question
I have you on a string
Something yet up my sleeve
Bury me deep, as I have an unborn child
In a world yet cold enough to host this seed of endless ugliness
In a sea of corruption, a wake of lie so wildly I have stirred
I’m winding down to nothing
It’s suddenly so clear
I’m winding down to nothing
A human smoke that fills the air
What can you believe?
That is the question
I have you on a string
Something yet up my sleeve
My love is but a lie
Always reaping what I have sown
I’m taking you down with me
To degrees you’ll never know
Flies
down, start digging down your throat
another string of lies is born
you must exemplify perfection
bronzing a broken life of shit
you filthy liar
septic tongue; shit-eating grin
slow internal suicide
an inch within a trigger's pull again
this disease, it is your mainstay
it wears its wires within me
tender tissues scraped away of secrets
etched in nameless graves
the smell of vomit hangs in the air tonight
blush, eyeliner, lipstick
it's all alright tonight
you filthy liar
septic tongue; shit-eating grin
love me with your yellowed smile
my flies are hungry for your kiss
poison me my darling
graves grow deeper with each passing day
this appalling love
bask in your putrid revelry
beauty lost in between the lashes of sick drunken eye
like a fool, you have believed
life of shame, you have fallen completely beneath
and when the curtains finally part,
you'll see that everyone is laughing
I am weakness, just like you
I'll bury you before you're dead
cockroach come crawling home!
crawl!
slithering through this world of sculpted shit
so thrust those fingers deep my child,
it is your burden and your gift
you filthy liar
septic tongue; shit-eating grin
slow internal suicide
an inch within a trigger's pull again
poison me my darling
graves grow deeper with each passing day
this appalling love
bask in your putrid revelry!
Statutory Ape Lyrics
this is a reckoning,
a cliched cut of lying tongue
revenge never goes out of style
gorilla honing trigger finger that makes gorilla man
ingrained, there's hate within us all
spiraling I've lost my footing once again
I'm flailing in a tantrum of disgust!
when life holds nothing sacred,
when the loveless turn to loathe
we'll witness this final threatened pose
oh mother war,
I sleep in your arms tonight
I'm burning, I'm burning for your love
this juggernaut of bronze and alcohol
machines of vengeance now are born
of vengeance we are born
to our graves these grudges shall be sworn
behold the death of emotions never mourned
we'll die before we crawl
twisted ministers of death, praying for a bullet
hail, gorilla suffocate gorilla, maim
an education in howling
ministers of death, we'll be praying
praying for this bullet, hail
gorilla suffocate
gorilla maim
an education in complete misanthropy
A Vulgar Picture
now the funeral grounds are at last AWASH
with the blackness of this frigid autumn night
I've lurked into the graveyard with pick and spade in tow
this night shall birth forth our reckoning
hell's jaws, now open wide
a stare to pierce six feet of soil
a love beyond this mortal coil
as though you'd never left my side,
I hold your stiffened body so close to me
for years I've lived in a dream
awake, I felt as dead as my cold and bloodless bride to me
I can barely suppress my elation!
MY BLOOD IS RACING AS I STRIKE THE LID
a quick pry of the casket reveals her body, paralyzed
so long I've waited for this moment,
to thrust my fingers deep inside!
now you will sing the song of the deceased
the ones whose souls will not rest in peace!
the throes of necromantic lust
possess my mind
cries of my precious frozen angel beckon from inside
I feel alive! for once I'm feeling so alive
my skin is crawling,
I'm completed on this resurrection night
from this night achieved a morbid truth
love's bounds post-mortally removed
(chorus)
in rapture my mind is lured by my own knife
to join this frrrragile being who sleeps below
the reflection of a razor reveals the moon, so perfectly
along my impatient veins its steel does graze
WITH THE KISS OF SUICIDE!
I feel no pain as I lay with my lovely bride
the silk lining now stained with my offering
I embrace the end of MY NOW WORTHLESS LIFE
Novelity Crosses
eyes of perfect ivory
match the sweetest lengths of her neck
I am but a stain to such holy fabrics
darwin's proposals bouncing back
from colored glass
serpents will guide me to your hull
slithering between the pews of pearl
and walk a path of purity and temporary grace
whatever it may take to eat and drink of you till slaked
to run a gloveless finger up
curvaceous trembling leg, we mustn't wait
the fruits of tragedy we'll taste
I'll be adam, you'll be eve
we'll fuck and so create
I'm being strangled by his statue
if only his cold eyes could weep for these things that should not be
father, I've been sinning
I've pulled a fast one, the perfect sleight of fate
goddamn girl
like an hourglass, I'll invert you
the higher powers shuddering at what you have become
the laws of science abandoned
thrust into purgatory
mary you've never looked so tender, I will you statues
here to take a breath of life and look upon
her virgin skin raised in anticipation
the dark has won
my darkness has won again!
what is truth?
I cannot yet discern
kneeling in hope of reprimand
this father's love shall not within me flow
I've fallen to my knees in hollow prayer!
how original a sin
we'll fuck and so create
and burn this planet in our wake
I'm being strangled by his statue
if only his cold eyes could weep for these things that should not be
father, I've been sinning
I've pulled a fast one, the perfect sleight of fate
goddamn girl
like an hourglass, I'll invert you
the only heaven I will know is heaving 'neath the buttons of your blouse
we'll be immortal, a most blessed union of lust
the flames of hell shall lick our coat-tails as we feast of infinities bust
Dave Goes To Hollywood
we of blood frozen so thick it cannot thaw
joints lubricated by sweet alcohol
liver dissolving, eyelids but heavy sheets
ignorant bliss and the bloodshot secrets it will keep
pills, if you wouldn't mind
clouds of vapor to stretch out the miles
hungover, we'll greet a certain death
with a flash of chipped tooth smile
each cities' demons buried beneath
in this campaign of vice
our drinking song, a reprise
a slow blur existence
wading knee deep in sin
clutch at the ulcer
acknowledge the frailties within
at dawn we begin again
you who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
this mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight
destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
(and) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away
free drinks.. they shall not kill us
they only warm our fucking bones!
but late at night, I can't forget your laugh
and everything I used to know
BUT I'VE NEVER SEEN SO MANY FACES
BUT I'VE NEVER FELT THIS ALL ALONE
BUT I GUESS THIS IS WHAT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED,
A FOUR-WHEELED COFFIN TO CALL HOME
I will not ask another name
disappearing faster than they came
are you having fun?
are you entertained?
another heart-shaped bruise,
another friend back home I'll lose
am I missing something?
what is left to prove?
another heated first-name fuck
another stroke of dead man's luck
another year I can't replace
ANOTHER TEAR SENT DOWN HER FACE
at dawn we begin again,
till our deaths shall bring an end
you who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
this mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight
destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
(and) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away
Miscarriage
the language of the lie
barbed and callous tongues shall lick
behind the thinnest doors
a web of falsehood so unfolds
humility
pride dissected maliciously
a mockery
bonds dissolve in endless mimickery
cruelly illuminated the subject of shallow spectacle
inherent weaknesses revealed
contact withers to a lull
once perfect pictures now stained with fingerprints
tragedy fucks jealousy
the human heartstrings bend and break
vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling?
preying on tender moments
the failures of purest dream
our selfish means are the means to this fucking end
a knife for every spine of every man
nails scratching into the flesh until fibers are broken
something's got to give
the bottoms of bottles no longer ease the pain
and the bathroom mirror reflects the face of autonomy
man must invert
internalize the pain
the sequence replays in the mind
the human heartstrings bend and break
vultures with human eyes, can you feel them circling?
preying on tender moments
the failures of purest dream
our selfish means are the means to this fucking end
a knife for every spine of every man
away a lot ugly answers lie somewhere in between
intrinsic disregard and the burden of weakness
they're sharpening
the knives are always sharpening
a life now stained with fingerprints
something's got to give!
Spite Suicide
terror be thy name
burning thine bridge and (heart) the same
a year to drain my innocence
and course it through your blackened veins
oh demoness, what has our daughter become?
trash for the maggots to eat
what color eyes should be staring at me in my dreams?
abomination, born in this union of hate
killed in the name of the free!
and of our son,
to the sickle he clung
a featureless face for your nightmarish dreams!
dilate and extract
dilate and bury it all
mother, vampiric mistress of nightfed blood
who pets her child's head from a grave
demon, enchantress of evil profound
DEAD AND NAMELESS
(a noose to choke the memories from me)
addic-ted to those forbidden hands
thrust deep inside her helpless hull
SCRAPE! scrape it all away
vacuum these pictures from my brain
scrape it all away
how I shall laugh once you have died
how I will sleep once you've been destroyed
dilate and extract
dilate and bury it dead
mother, vampiric mistress of nightfed blood
who pets her child's head from a grave
demon, enchantress of evil profound
DEAD AND NAMELESS
(a noose to choke the memories from me)
DEAD!
Miasma
in between, insidious vapor shall teem
looming so loathesome
and it seems to me like I'm dead inside
bloated corpse, propped out of tradition
I can never recall what it was I had ever to strive for as a youth
was it just to exist, autonomously?
no, we don't wanna work
we just wanna fuck,
swallow pills and forget our curses
no, we don't need pigs like you
we'll follow the laws of our emptying veins
in this world of nothing for me
I'd be sooner destroyed
vampire youth, raise your cups to the ne'er waning moon,
let its visage ring true!
to the hearts cold and blue
we're dying each moment, FREE
we're all animals here
flesh and blood, bone and dream!
we're just impulses here
another piece of shit in the storm
JUST ANOTHER PIECE OF SHIT
from the smelling of things it appears this shit has come to a boil
the night-time we shall rule as our own
while the hollow shall sleep
we shall bark at the moon
in this world of nothing for me
I'd be sooner destroyed
in this world there is nothing for us but the sound (but the sound)
vampire youth, raise your cups to the ne'er waning moon,
let its visage ring true!
to the hearts cold and blue
we're dying each moment
we'll never sleep again
we'll be going fucking mad
sin and hell is all we will ever know
just another piece of shit!
