Yes people, it's true!! This is NOT a mirage, Loud Lyrix is finally back in
distribution after a LONG two week sabbatical... anyways, TONS has happened
during this time.
For one thing, I have finished school, after writing three exams, and I'm
now working at Canada's Wonderland, ooops! I mean Paramount Canada's
Wonderland. (It's a big theme park located just north of Toronto for those
of you that don't know, which is probably about 90% of you!) Well, as you
can probably imagine, I'm happy as hell that skule's over... I thought
that I'd finally have a little time to rest, and catch up on some sleep
and get rid of the bags under my eyes, but NO!! It's even fucking worse
than before!!! Holy shit, I'm half dead.
Anyways, let's get to the big thing, our NEW listserv!! Many thanks go out
to Joe Baptista of Planet Communications for taking me on outta the
goodness of his heart (!!!) Anyways, this makes things MUCH easier for me,
more than any of you can possibly know! Hopefully by now, Joe has gotten
around to sending everyone Loud Lyrix's revamped FAQ. The FAQ has all the
information that you'll need to know about the listserv, how to subscribe,
and how to sign off, make GOOD USE OF IT! And one last thing, remember,
don't send anything to the list address, lyrix@planet.org, 'cause it'll
just bounce that mail back to the administrative address,
lyrix@terranet.cts.com, so DON'T WASTE RESOURCES......thank you.
Ok dudes!! Ton's has happened since Issue #11 on June 7th, I went to see
Pantera, Sepultura and Biohazard, and had a fucking WICKED time!! But I
unfortunately DON'T have the time right now to type out the whole story
for you dudes... it's currently 11:09 on Tuesday the 21st so I'm in a huge
rush to get the issue done, but don't despair, I will get around to writing
an essay for this concert, plus the Metallica/Suicidal/Danzig concert from
the 4th, AND the Scorpions concert this Saturday the 25th too!! Whoa! What
a line up, you dudes are in for a treat.
Ok, the line up for this week is pretty typical, the last song is a
reader's submission, the rest are my own picks (as if you guyz can't tell
by now eh?). Yes, it's true, we have finally finished King Diamond's epic
"The Eye" album. Chapter 10 is the final installment in the story, I
really hope you dudes liked it all, but I urge ALL of you to grab this CD,
and listen to it, nothing compares to the actually music with the lyrics,
it's the only way to get the full effect. Well, the next concept album is
King Diamond's "Them". This album is pretty awesome, although not as good
as "The Eye", but still, King Diamond just can't go wrong with his stories!
This album however is MUCH better with the music, there are lot's of
little special F/X that they have on the album that really make it cool.
I'd recommend getting this album as well.
Well people, that's just about everything, hopefully next week I'll be
able to write those essays I promised, but I seriously doubt it, I'm
pretty fucking packed with work and other shit, it's UNREAL, anyways, I
WILL WRITE THEM!! By issue #25 I'll have 'em done for sure! :)

Chapter 10, "The Eye", by King Diamond
*************************** T H E C U R S E *****************************
I know what you're thinking, I can see through your brain
I know what you're doing, even though I'm far away
The power I get from the chain is mine
Only I can use it
The power I get from the chain is mine
Only I can use it
It was only yesterday, thunder rolling by, breaking up the sky
And the rain was pouring down
Pounding on my brain, driving me insane
I was drinking wine again, oh yeah blame it on the wine
The curse of "The Eye", it will take you back in time
If you look at "The Eye", it will take you back in time
The curse of "The Eye", it will take you back in time
If you look at "The Eye", it will take you back in time
I know what you're thinking, I can see through your brain
I know what you're doing, even though I'm far away
I know there's a bad side to the power of the chain
I know I'll be going back in time once again
It was on the 1st of May, thunder rolling by, breaking up the sky
And the rain was pouring down
The Inquisition came, I felt the pain
I had to relive it all in just one day
The curse of "The Eye", it will take you back in time
If you look at "The Eye", it will take you back in time
The power I get from the chain is mine
Only I can use it.

[And so ends one of the best concept albums I've ever heard in my life, in
my un-humble opinion, Kind Diamond is THE master of story telling... soon
to come will be another concept album of his, entitled "Them". See ya. And
what do you know, here it is!! I've decided not to wait, and to start
posting the songs to "Them" right away. -- Editor]
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
[Ok dudes, here it is, another King Diamond concept album, "Them" is a
story about a little boy, who's name is surprisingly "King Diamond"!! :)
No, I'm serious about that, ok, and he has a sister, "Missy" and a mother,
and they live in an old house that is supposedly haunted by "THEM" and
apparently "Grandma" is in league with "Them", and they just have one HELL
of a time when she comes to visit from the Asylum!! Enjoy. -- Editor]

| o whom it may concern.
I am scared to death. 9 years ago they finally let me out, and I was
just beginning to feel better. I am not Myself any longer. I guess You
could not even recognize My face if You saw Me now. That phone call 2 hours
ago has torn Me apart. It was Grandma. She invited Me back to the old
house. I do not want to go back, but I must. Maybe You will understand My
fear if I tell You what happened during My childhood.
18 years ago I was living with My mother and My sister Missy in
Grandma's old house. I had been told that Grandma was away on a long
vacation, and that she would soon return. She did.
I have later found out that she was actually being released from that
same asylum. "She's insane", they said, when she kept on babbling about
"THEM". I still cannot make up My mind about who really did separate
Grandpa's head from his shoulders. You see, "THEY" were always so nice to
Me.
Anyway, time is short and I must leave for the old house. So here is
what happened 18 years ago. And in case we never see each other again, at
least You will know why.
I bet we are going to have tea.

Look, the old bitch is back - yeah,
finally we'll get some company again
the attic room has been
locked up for far too long - just like the
old bitch herself - she's on time
though - why that silly wheelchair?
Oh she's pretending as always - but
she does make a good cup of tea.
"Oh My God she's here. Missy, listen
to what Mother says: Now You be
good to Grandma; and remember
she's been away on a long vacation.
That goes for You too King. And stop
playing that thing. Answer the door"

Pulling closer like the blue steel jaws of hell
Digg'n in my heart I find a human generator

Hog the road, swamp the beat

Trip back on the serpent move z-man slowly bang the groove
Takin' a trip, "A real kick" to hell (shout it!)
Think'n that when she die, spirit go up to the sky
Devil come a stepp'n, brainiac a look'n below

There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
all inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town
feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
so I might as well begin to put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future, I can't even start
I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart
you don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue
if you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You don't know what it's like.....
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law

Album: "Persistence of Time"
You walk this earth without a heart
You tear the innocent's soul apart
You shovel your conscience into the grave
You walk this earth without a heart
Your uniform couldn't be taken off
A tattoo burned into your flesh
Your mind, your voice
These are your instruments of death
How could you dare to be so bold
You only did as you were told
Marionettes dancing in time
To the apologetic lines
For all the monsters of our time
Who is evil, who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast
One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
Millions, never, never again
Madness, never, never again
Martyrs, dead that can't die
Monsters
Insanity, the normal state
The left hand a hammer, the right the stake
Driven so deep into the heart
It's killing love, it's killing faith
It's killing 'cause it's from the heart
What better way to demoralize
When your own children are your spies
The things you trust are not the same
Trust in death, trust in grief
Trust in hope is trust in pain
Who is evil, who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast
One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
Millions, never, never again
Madness, never, never again
Martyrs, dead that can't die
Monsters
Who is evil, who is blind?
In the name of who you'll find
You're not supposed to question faith
But how do you accept this fate?
Madness, tear the innocent's souls apart
Martyrs, shovel your conscience into the grave
Monsters
A city of souls dying for peace
Welcome to the belly of the beast
One mind, one voice
Welcome to the belly of the beast
Who hears, your voice?
This is the belly of the beast
And all the souls dying for peace
Inside the belly of the beast
Millions, never, never again
Madness, never, never again
Martyrs, dead that can't die
Monsters

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
>From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive their ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying:
Valhalla, I am coming!
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
>From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
So now you'd better stop and rebuild your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite all your losing.

You've got something about you
You've got something I need
Daughter of Aphrodite
Hear my words and take heed
I was born on Olympus
To my father a son
I was raised by the demons
Trained to reign as the one
God of thunder and rock and roll
The spell you're under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul
I'm the lord of the wastelands
A modern day man of steel
I gather darkness to please me
And I command you to kneel
Before the
God of thunder and rock and roll
The spell you're under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul
I am the lord of the wastelands
A modern day man of steel
I gather darkness to please me
And I command thee to kneel
Before the
God of thunder and rock and roll
The spell you're under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul

Waiting for the revolution
New clear vision - genocide
Computerize god - it's the new religion
Program the brain - not the heartbeat
Onward all you crystal soldiers
Touch tomorrow - energize
Digital dreams
And you're the next correction
Man's a mistake so we'll fix it, yeah
Take a look at your own reflection
Right before your eyes
It turns to steel
Chorus:
There's another side of heaven
This way - to technical paradise
Find it on the other side
When the walls fall down
Love is automatic pleasure
Virtual reality
Terminal hate - it's a calculation
Send in the child for connection
Take a look at the toys around you
Right before your eyes
The toys are real
Chorus
Midnight confessions
Never heal the soul
What you believe is fantasy
Your past is your future
Left behind
Lost in time
Will you surrender
Waiting for the revolution
Program the brain
Not the heartbeat
Deliver us to evil
Deny us of our faith
Robotic hearts bleed poison
On the world we populate
Virtual existence
With a superhuman mind
The ultimate creation
Destroyer of mankind
Termination of our youth
For we do not compute
No !

When you have been down in your grave...alive
Your mind decays and you're the coffin's slave
And when at midnight an uncanny bell tolls...
Terrible noises, the dark graveyard calls
Limbs break through the dirt
Decay stinks like hell
Dark creatures in the fog
Crusted blood on the dead
Triumph of death
Triumph of death
Euronomous sends his souls
Buried by a horrible mistakes
You feel,you're eaten by worms
And the night's alive again
