Lyrics:
Devils servant under necromancers spell
Kill the victim before the chime of the bell
Venom-like steel, soon to slice flesh
The blade of death and destruction

Beheaded bodies lie in the path
Spelling misfortune from an unfinished task
A haunting from the deepest unknown
Life's last rights killed in cold moonlight
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/merciless_death/slaughter_lord.html ]
Under... the executioner's command

Severing the head from the spine
Maggots will feast on the corpse in time
Evil priests condemn the soul
Life in hell, into the fiery hole

Masses chant an evil spell
Raising souls from which they fell
Sadistic force of unholy rule
More souls into deadly hell

Under... the executioners command

This album is pure LA thrash metal served up '85 style, mostly in the Bay Area vein. It has it all: speed, aggression, rawness, catchiness, you name it, it's here. You will immediately recognize the Exodus influence (A Lesson in Violence anyone?), some Dark Angel-style riffs, plus of course Exumer's Possessed by Fire. Not only is there catchy riff after riff, but there are plenty of breaks throughout, and of course your standard speedy thrash metal solos.

@severetorturer i know, right? I love everything about this band! Especially those guitar solos. Dan Holder is possibly the next Kerry King or Glen Tipton

first time listening to merciless death and i must say i'm very impressed. the vocals could use more work but this is just me nitpicking. everything else is great. i'm assuming they named themselves after the dark angel song which is fucking cool.

[MetalAttack1986]

@chiaromontestephen yeah. These guys are very good! They're a new thrash metal band, but they're not one of the new overrated trendy ones like Fueled by Fire or somethin'. If you think the vocals need improvement, check out their second album, WAY BETTER. The singer on the second album (same singer as here) sings like a mix of Chuck Schuldiner and Jeff Berreca. So yeah, he really improved!

Here, I'll upload the second album

@chiaromontestephen oh. They actually didn't name the band after the Dark Angel's song. They first started calling themselves Merciless Onslaught, but then they replaced the word onslaught with death because that sounded better. Merciless Death>Merciless Onslaught. That kind of thing

[metalmeansme]

@MetalAttack1986 hahahah be named after either a Dark Angel or Metal Church song now thats thrash

[ThrashMetaltillDeth]

@chiaromontestephen I don't really dig Fueled by Fire either, I think they are way too generic and try a bit too hard to be metal. But I shouldn't be bitchin, at least they play thrash!

[chiaromontestephen]

@MetalAttack1986 you don't like fueled by fire? i think their spread the fire album is pretty good. i'll make sure to check out the 2nd merciless death album.
