Agent Steel - "Way of the Mechanism" (lyric video)

Look away from your fractured lives
Turn your heads towards the mighty sound
Plugged into their magnetic fields
Come to claim our lives

Left for nothing,
opposing their control
Crowned atop the hollywood logo
Fraudulent feel-good tactics
Beneath veneers of gold
Self-appointed diplomats of hate
Clinging ties, blackened crowns of wraith
Stealing cash, exchanging truth for lies
Trap system as they blot the light

You're all slaves / Of the mechanism
All slaves / Of the mechanism
All slaves / Of the mechanism
All slaves / Of the mechanism

Estimated time of arrival
They conspire to manipulate
By the time you reach the gate
Their minions say you're too late
Scarred up by their twisted lies
They're rolling 'round like pigs in the mud
Preparing decorated walkers in the darkness
They're cursed eternally
Chit-chat and gossip entrepreneurs
They worship the devil
I turn toward Afron-V,
Soaring with the falcon

You're all slaves / Of the mechanism
All slaves / Of the mechanism
All slaves / Of the mechanism
All slaves / Of the mechanism

Time and space,
Wars of dark and light
Time and space,
Wars of dark and light
Time and space,
Wars of dark and light
Time and space...
Wars of dark and light

Η δισκογραφική επιστροφή των Agent Steel μετά από 13 χρόνια κοντοζυγώνει. Ο διάδοχος του album "Alienigma" (2007) τιτλοφορείται "NO other GODZ BEFORE ME" κι αναμένεται να κυκλοφορήσει μέσα στο προσεχές καλοκαίρι από την Dissonance Productions. Οι Αμερικανοί metallers επανασυνδέθηκαν προ διετίας και πέρυσι ηχογράφησαν δύο demos.

Το δεύτερο τιτλοφορείται "Way of the Mechanism" και μόλις προχθές η μπάντα έδωσε στην δημοσιότητα το lyric video του ομότιτλου τραγουδιού με την υποσημείωση ότι πρόκειται για demo ηχογράφηση κι ότι το εν λόγω κομμάτι δεν θα περιλαμβάνεται στο νέο album...
