goblintoof Holy shit. Support more music like this. We really need a surge of angry thrashy grindcore about 2020. Favorite track: Relentless Lethal Heatwave.

JDMP Honestly, a real shame that more people aren't listening to this already. Incredible crossover here. Fast, aggressive, and in your face. Everything you could ever want out of the sub-one minute song. Don't hesitate: buy this album. Favorite track: Corrupted by Purity.

Tyme Gotta support backyard artists.....

Hoosier metal is where it's at.

1.	Fortress of Blight 01:27	lyrics	buy track
Rust Fortified neglect Petrified in dust Structurally subsumed By the market that infects Crumbling in dereliction A world without escape Global social vision Of perpetual decay Crush Destroy create devour Leaving debt-ravaged husks Enfeebled host collapses For scavengers to scour Dying of addiction The most efficient way Shock and awe vision Of market-friendly disarray Privatize monetize Financialize terrorize Dislocate isolate Casualties of a crumbling state No escape This crumbling state Blight Enforced desolation A landscape of despair Ecological degradation Economic disrepair Internal contradictions Short-term profit seeking lust A dying corporate vision World petrifies in dust
2.	Relentless Lethal Heatwave 02:56	lyrics	buy track
Greenhouse gases infiltrate Dire emissions permeate Ambient temps begin to rise Mankind fails to realize Mutant climate, cities bake Civil disorder as states decay Corporate powers on an insane course Greenhouse effect is in full force Refugees flee dying lands To die in concentration camps Tropical diseases spread Biomes choked with countless dead Their lust for oil plunges on Until the final barrel is drawn Metabolic failure as your organs boil inside you Brain congeals like scrambled egg Heat-degraded IQ Droughts and floods Exacerbate Mass pandemics Collapsing state Deaths from famine Vast wildfires Fossil fuels burn On our funeral pyre Relentless heatwave death (repeat x3) Relentless heatwave….
3.	Barrage of Mind-Numbing Platitudes 00:47	lyrics	buy track
Disengaging paradigm Obscure demure paralyze Word count hiding body count Prevaricate block it out Spurious accusation Furious dissemination False concern trolling tone Shilling for the status quo Columns inked in human blood Barrage of platitudes Fucking scum x 4 Perpetuate decrepit script Drown it all in petty shit Purveyors of the poison texts Corporate masters write your checks
4.	Deranged Optimism 01:40	lyrics	buy track
Blinded by your hopes and dreams Dive into the shallow stream Ignore the spreading disrepair Ignore the millions in despair Exploiting promise Of mobility Ideology aligned Into conformity Navigate the academy Enter the shrinking economy Depression, self-hate, year by year Funeral for your career Exploiting promise Of security Realign your interests With the plutocracy Qualified for naught Deranged game Resent all you were taught Debt remains Capitalism In decline To poverty You are consigned Insecure Not your fault Flawed structure Fails us all Ecosphere Facing collapse Oblivious Professional class Rigged and rotten Broken system Exploiting naive plans Abandoning A Generation Transformed into a scam Status quo preserved in vain Final gasps of a pointless game To face the growing insecurities Hope aligns with reality
5.	The Mask Has Fallen 00:38	lyrics	buy track
The billionaires are in the race The mask is falling off The oligarchs are out in front The mask is falling off To control a doomed economy The mask has fallen off They need to run it personally The mask has fallen off Self-interest of the rich Uninspiring pitch Out of touch ghouls Proving they are fools Now they're in the open Show Them Their time has come to an end
6.	Corrupted by Purity 00:55	lyrics	buy track
Natural Innocent Authentic Undiluted Elemental Inborn Normative Exclusive Suppressive Invalidate Annihilate Exterminate Terrifying list of horrific deeds Fanatical mission to keep the blood clean Describe human beings with the language of disease Mass extermination is their form of hygiene Corrupted! By purity! Separating out the natural from the false Fixated on immunity, policing the walls The body is a temple that must not be defiled Only for the rich, a boutique lifestyle Corrupted! By purity! To keep their culture free of "pollution" They will sanction mass execution Fuck purity!
7.	Planetary Mutation 03:37	lyrics	buy track
Seeping from the pores Of the earth A mobile substance Unalive To accelerate technologies Of transformation Human beings The catalytic drive Black Corpse of the sun Molecules sifting Through the air Thaw Planet putrefies Mutating world Unaware Crawling metamorphosis Consumes Advancing instability Catastrophic inundation Drowning humankind in empty seas Deviating pathogens migrate Climatic zones altered disease proliferates Evolution's unpredicted path Mutations and extinctions cancelling the math Planetary mutation! Biomass exhumed from lifeless seas Death machine out of control global antifreeze Failed ideology holds out Neoliberal Destiny is death without a doubt Planetary mutation! x 2 Annihilation! x 2 Liquefied! Putrefied! Annihilation! Liquefied! Putrefied! Flowing through the veins Of the Empire Fossil blood of an alien design Cheap machines Churn the world into something new An unknown world unburdened by humankind
8.	Your Place in the Natural Order 01:25	lyrics	buy track
Vermin Lower than the insects The losers in this contest Appeal to eternal Nature The invisible hand Natural law! Freedom Only found in markets Rational transactions Sorting human beings Brutal efficiency Divine plan! Class decree! Bourgeois faith! Natural order Atomized Class divide Zero sum Stratified Labor rupture Competition Contractual Subjugation Natural order Dogma Too long obfuscated By pompous technocrats Their meritocracy An empty fucking sham Fucking sham! x 2
9.	Mass Aversion Madness 00:51	lyrics	buy track
Plugged into a tiny scene Elitist bubble fills the screen Echo chamber of stale ideals Clueless wonks with no appeal Focus groups and endless polls Assured of your essential roles Cultivate a shrinking base Technocratic faith misplaced Repeating endless losing streak This rotten party starts to reek Mass! Aversion madness! x 3
10.	Managers 01:06	lyrics	buy track
Self-important bureaucrats Watchdogs for the ruling class Task masters of the arbitrary Middling procedural functionary Fuck You I fucking quit Puffed-up mini-feudal-lord Ruling an empire of the bored Sycophantic deputy Overseer of apathy Fuck You I fucking quit Short sighted Suit and tie Self-promoting Dead inside Taskmaster Punching down Corporate drone Fucking clown Obsessed with padding your resume Mediocre paper pusher to the grave Fuck You I fucking quit
11.	Unsuspected Cancer 02:12	lyrics	buy track
Breathe it into your lungs Isotopic cinders from the burning of coal Damaging your DNA Deranged cells sprout tendrils through your tissues Poisonous pollution, a scourge against the poor Another lethal weapon, in this crooked class war Never screened or tested No path for prevention the cancer spreads unchecked Growing unsuspected Ballooning cost of treatment means you'll die in pain They unleash the damage then they profit from the grief A weakened host collapses, no prospect of relief Deregulate Subversion of the state Lucrative mayhem Is all they can create Morbidity intense Extortionate defense Bankrupted by the costs Deadly consequence Cancerous scheme! (Feeding on itself) Polluted world! Disintegrate! (Contradictions undermine) Structure implodes! Do not resuscitate Malignancy estate Leave it to its fate Societal prognosis Economic chemotherapy to rid us of the oligarchs Restructuring a system Rebuild from scratch to avoid these fatal flaws
12.	Mental Vacuum 00:56	lyrics	buy track
Void obsession Occult distraction Escapist fiction Mental vacuum Darkness your friend Profess obscure theology Trite esoterica Take yourself so seriously Trivial pursuit Mystic aesthetics isolated Tedious doctrines Mentally insulated Banal inverse religiosity Nihilism So en vogue Astral distraction Spiritual bloat Void obsession Occult distraction Pretentious system Mental vacuum Take your silly religion And shove it
13.	Remember the Names 01:37	lyrics	buy track
Architects of atrocity Cheerleaders for calamity Mass murder apologists Still enjoy their media gigs Remember their names Loathsome false prognosticators Sick warmongering masturbators Showrunners of death and misery Still collect consulting fees Remember their names Manufacturing mass consent Atrocious war they did invent The lies they told left millions dead And still they suffer no consequence Fucking ghouls! Hack supporters of every war In plush offices they brandish swords Any pretext for the [imperial] war machine They start to gibber on the tv screen Fucking ghouls! Clear-cut disaster Still they have their jobs Left with all their power The Washington blob Never faced the music A sick unending game The neocon ambition Remember their names! Hustlers of Iraq and Afghanistan Now their greedy gaze falls on Iran Architects of atrocity Cheerleaders for calamity Swindlers hawking more of the same Remember their fucking names! [David Frum, David Brooks, Ari Fleischer, Paul Wolfowitz, John Bolton, Hilary Clinton, Joe Biden, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney...the list goes on]
14.	World in a Death Grip 02:54	lyrics	buy track
The old is dying The new cannot be born Holding to power Obsolete and outworn Decrepit order In a senile rage Futureless pattern Crawling past its age Oligarchic patronage Careening toward doom Managerial cabal Neoliberal tomb Ossified Dementia status quo Strangled birth The end of history Endless present Free-market purgatory Rightward economic shift Masked by social liberal grift Centrist technocratic deal Thirty years has lost appeal Privileged ranks of PMC Out-of-touch entrenched league Stale rhetoric of false ambition Empty promises lack of vision Abandoning the working class Collapsing world decaying fast Society caught in their grip of death Amoral career Power-seeking goal Hypocrisy, fraud To preserve their control The old is dying The new cannot be born Holding to power Obsolete and outworn

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise. zirtonic
