"Auschwitz, the meaning of pain/ The why that I want you to die/ Slow death, immense decay/ Showers that cleanse you of your life/ Forced in/ Like cattle/ You run/ Stripped of/ Your life's worth/ Human mice, for the Angel of Death/ Four hundred thousand more to die/ Angel of Death/ Monarch to the kingdom of the dead/ Sadistic, surgeon of demise/ Sadist of the noblest blood/ Destroying, without mercy/ To benefit the Aryan race/ Surgery, with no anesthesia/ Fell the knife pierce you intensely/ Inferior, no use to mankind/ Strapped down screaming out to die/ Pumped with fluid, inside your brain/ Pressure in your skull begins pushing through your eyes/ Burning flesh, drips away/ Test of heat burns your skin, your mind starts to boil/ Frigid cold, cracks your limbs/ How long can you last/ In this frozen water burial?/ Sewn together, joining heads/ Just a matter of time/ 'Til you rip yourselves apart/ Millions laid out in their/ Crowded tombs/ Sickening ways to achieve/ The holocaust/ Seas of blood, bury life/ Smell your death as it burns/ Deep inside of you/ Abacinate, eyes that bleed/ Praying for the end of/ Your wide awake nightmare/ Wings of pain, reach out for you/ His face of death staring down,/ Your blood running cold/ Injecting cells, dying eyes/ Feeding on the screams of/ The mutants he's creating/ Pathetic harmless victims/ Left to die/ Rancid Angel of Death/ Flying free"
I've had the most intense craving for Slayer's music lately. Especially "Angel of Death". In the beginning of that song the vocalist screams so high pitched it sounds like a guitar at first, I don't think I have to tell you that it rules. My favorite song by them is "Mandatory Suicide", which seems like it's about the Vietnam war. Many people don't realize that many Slayer's lyrics are based off of social problems and things that really happen, such as Mandatory Suicide (about war) and Angel of Death (about the holocaust). The "Angel of Death" that is mentioned, in my opinion, is the infamous Klause Barbie. For those of you who don't know, Barbie is the nazi among nazis, aka "the butcher of Lyon". I'm assuming the song is about him because in the song it says "infamous butcher", and the rest of the song is obviously about the holocaust. Barbie, who got his "butcher of lyon" moniker by murdering thousands of Jews in Lyon, France, was later found guilty of being a war criminal. Of course, the CIA saw this and escorted him from France and gave him protection. In return he would help fight communism in Germany (because Communism is bad). But, I'm sure you've already read about all that in your standard issued history textbooks at school.
