Quotations

"Back on the road, its no lie... Stupid fucking humans pay money to die! Crushed in the pit, nailed to the stage, I only suck the souls that are underage!"

The Salaminizer

"With a battle cry go forth which is "Give the people what they want." And what the people want could only be the senseless slaughter of the gutter-slime that litters this nation for cash and prizes. Yes, this is the show where people bet their lives to win something big. / Cause when your life is shit, then you haven't got much to lose on Slaughterama!"

Slaughterama

"So, how do ya hide money from a hippy? Put it under the soap!"

Slaughterama

"Freedom to all the people / Brave, true and strong / Freedom to all the people / Unless I think you're wrong!"

The Morality Squad

"The cherub screams "NO" as I move to defile / Our bodies entwine in a puddle of bile / Many years later we'll look back and smile / As we thrash about on the urine-drenched tile / The delivery room is as still as a tomb / I fuck the child while its still in your womb / The child is now dead and you start to blubber / Fuck your warm corpse with your child as a rubber!"

B.D.F, This Toilet Earth

"To die / Perchance to sin / That's the rub / For in that sleep of sin / What, what kingdom may come? / What of the limitless sex and violence in the wake of RagNaRok!"

RagNaRok

"Raining death on people / Firing into crowds / Over there I got a big bright medal / But here it's not allowed!"

Back to Iraq

"Hiroshima, a shadow burned in time / Nagasaki, naked baby melts alive / Burnt flesh and rubble from sea to dead shore / Such a hideous theatre of war / But that was the end - why? / There are so many more that must die / Is that not part of the plan? / I must use the nukes I can't kill you all with my hands."

Bring Back the Bomb

"The Swastika and the Bloody Old Cross / Two great hates that hate great together"

Krosstika

"The decay of grandeur / From riches to rot / The decay of grandeur say / To have and then have not"
