Sodom - 'Gun Without Groom' (official audio)

My soul is vanished from this world
Into a sea of emptiness
Constant fire bounds my body
Slayed me down without regret
So cap my wounds with sulfur
And coat my eyes with gasoline
Stuff my nose with bullets
And fill my ears with mercury

I’m waiting for divine salvation
Without mournful aftermath
Stand by me, you golden angels
Waiting for a painless death

Blinded by those who believe in concealed death
Freedom of decent
Trapped in a nightmare that shattered my sore crest
You’ll never understand
The bullets like rain in an unreal damnation
Can’t escape my savage doom
Staring to hell with the devil’s creation

My gun without groom
My gun without groom

The day when death descends from heaven
Acid rain reveals the graves
Beyond the blackness stretches
A sea of sharpened blade
So stick my legs in concrete
And wet my tongue with enemy blood
Glue my veins with tree resin
And drown my guts in crimson mud

I’m waiting for divine salvation
Without mournful aftermath
Stand by me, you golden angels
Waiting for a painless death

Blinded by those who believe in concealed death
Freedom of the decent
Trapped in a nightmare that shattered my sore crest
You’ll never understand
The bullets like rain in an unreal damnation
Can’t escape my savage doom
Staring to hell with the devil’s creation

My gun without groom
My gun without groom

Where life refuses to count the dead
The silent birth of rage dispread
Where death refuses to protect the life
Forever crucified in a foreign shine

Hell expands where love dries up
Beyond the reach of human eyes
War rages up where man defeated
Tracer splits the midnight sky

So prick my brain with thorns
And numb my mind with lies
Pierce my heart with shrapnels
And cover my body with flies

I’m waiting for divine salvation
Without mournful aftermath
Stand by me, you golden angels
Waiting for a painless death

Blinded by those who believe in concealed death
Freedom of the decent
Trapped in a nightmare that shattered my sore crest
You’ll never understand
The bullets like rain in an unreal damnation
Can’t escape my savage doom
Staring to hell with the devil`s creation

My gun without groom
My gun without groom
My gun without groom
My gun without groom

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από πέντε (τυπικά τρία αν θεωρήσουμε ως full length και τον δίσκο "40 Years at War - The Greatest Hell of Sodom") έτη για τους Sodom. "The Arsonist" ο τίτλος του νέου πονήματος των Γερμανών thrashers, το οποίο κυκλοφορεί ήδη...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Sodom returns with ‘The Arsonist‘, their first full-length album since 2020.

It’s not only the complex production process that testifies to the band’s exceptional creative spirit, but also their diverse songwriting, which saw all four Sodom musicians - Tom Angelripper (vocals, bass), Frank Blackfire (guitar), York Segatz (guitar) and Toni Merkel (drums) - involved in the development of the material on ‘The Arsonist’.

The mastering was done by the famous sound engineer Eroc and the cover artwork with its martial design was penned by the exceptional Polish artist Zbigniew M. Bielak (Ghost, Mayhem, among others).»
