Destruction - The Ravenous Beast Lyrics






The greedly gullet of the bigwig nations
Swallows all of our patience

In unity they fool the poor
Keen on cash like a cheap fucking whore

They're misplaying their winning game
Already forgot that we're all the same

Their acting under our flag
Awkward political greylag!

The ravenous beast...

...The claws of evil ripping the credulous poor apart

...The statement of claim ignored by those with a blackheart!

Wrapped up in lies
The ravenous beast

Seems education didn't teach us well
This ego mania leads into a bombshell

Disgrace surrounds me on those lucky days
Cause soon the world will be ablaze

Only to give and to share luck
Keeps the unprivileged away from running amok

    'Metallicrap'. Do you take yourself serious? I don't, when you say that - can understand you don't like Metallica, but it just sounds childish.
    As for Sodom, it seems you are right. I was commenting based on what I remember from 'Get Thrashed', which basically stated that the german scene (Kreator, Destruction and others) was inspired to play thrash by demo's from the US - at first Metallica demo's as they were pretty much the first.

  8. m.... ....

  15. N.... ....

    @clinesmind2010 THrash.There's an "H" in there.

  16. L.... b....

    Destruction > Slayer

    But they're both great

    L.... b....

    No, not even closer to the masters. Saw yesterday Destruction opening for Overkill...Overkill blown them away.

    L.... b....

    Completely agree! Destruction are a lot more unique, have way better solos, riffs and so on(IMO). But like a lot of bands they didn't have much luck.The Antichrist alone shits on most of their stuff. I love Slayer too but Destruction are much more interesting to listen to.

  17. t.... ....

    @Estiloso lol.....that is funny!!

  18. T.... C....

    Old school trash! Curse the Gods was one of their best songs back in the day. Glad to see they're still jamming.

  19. E.... ....

    @AndreisReaper666
    No. The Teutonic thrash 'big 3' were following what was happening in america, especially the big four as those were the pioneers of thrash and pretty big. Petrozza said it himself that he was influenced by Metallica, Slayer and Venom. As for Sodom, the 'oldest' of the 3, they got their stuff going after Metallica and Slayer, Metallica's debut was the first followed shortly after by Slayer Show No Mercy.

  20. B.... S....

    da hora!!!!!! tem q vir no rock in rio em 2011

  21. B.... S....

    da hora!!!!!!

  22. A.... T....

    @Atreyu1611 Actually the Teutonic thrash metal big 3 was around at the exact same time as the big 4. Destruction are one of the big 3 along with sodom and kreator, if you're going to correct someone, at least get your facts straight,
    Sodom formed the same year as metallica and destruction were out before megadeth, so yeah, if you're going to name drop the big 4, do your research
    If anything Europe is the home of metal in general.

  23. G.... R....

    @bollwerk94 the hometown of Thrash is deffinitly not in Germany let alone Europe...the Big Four Thrash metal bands were in the early 80's and all from North America, heard of these little bands named, METALLICA, SLAYER, ANTHRAX and MEGADETH

    G.... R....

    Grim Reefer These band are shitty

    G.... R....

    Yao Ming Totally agree. The alleged "Big" 4 from America is just nothing comparing to Real thrash titans like DESTRUCTION, KREATOR from Germany. Especially this ridiculous pop-metal Megadeth without power, energy, and boring altogether.

    G.... R....

    @Rafik Darolecki I thought i was the only one that thought that way. Megadeth are great and fun to listen to but are wayyyy overrated. Kreator, Sodom, Destruction Tankard wipe the floor with the so called "Big 4". Just because those bands aren't american or that famous doesn't make them any less good.

  24. M.... M....

    Wait, I just heard this song. Well, maybe not but it sounded like the last song I listened to by them.

  25. b.... ....

    @PcCAvioN No, I only know german thrash bands

  26. F.... r....

    @alaenoctis Dude.. ;D this is not so bad.. Do better than them ;D ..... eeh whuteer.. i like them anyway

  27. I.... ....

    Shity music.

  28. E.... ....

    @PcCAvioN Debauchery, Die Apokalyptischen Reiter

  29. r.... ....

    of course theres a scene of boobs.

  30. J.... ....

    @bigjimswafflehouse these guys aren't that good imo, but i suppose it's opinion. regardless of your preferences, do you know any prog metal from germany?

  31. b.... ....

    @PcCAvioN Sodom, Kreator, and of course Destruction

  32. J.... ....

    @nichtlustig130293 show me some good german bands! the only good one i've heard has been HSB, all the others i've heard sound like gay bolt thrower or some hard rock remix.

  33. M.... C....

    @OpethToolMetallica hell yeah!

  34. b.... ....

    nice that they didnt change their style over the years so much!
    cheers from the hometown of thrash metal
    Germany

  35. E.... ....

    @asiburger
    You mean it sounds like new Slayer, boring, repetitive, predictable and uninspired? Yes, then I agree.

  36. W.... ....

    I love this band! <3

  37. a.... ....

    Slayer-Kopie hin oder her...Irgendwie geil

  38. C.... ....

    Hail Destruction.

  39. c.... ....

    @MrKirafan kannst mal sehen xD

  40. M.... C....

    @ichirootaniguchi gettin influenced is something else than coping. huh? -.-

  41. M.... C....

    @TomteGroet one comes from me... Slayer-copy. sorry

  42. M.... C....

    Schlecht... n Abklatsch von Slayer wenn ihr mich fragt.
    kommt mir net damit wie scheiße ich doch bin.
    Ist halt meine Meinung.
    Ich werde ja auch eure net kritisieren.
