Better stay away, don't come around Time is up, the chips are down Not putting up with it no more You better leave, you know what's in store You come around talking shit You know we're tired, we're sick of it Don't want to hear any more Here to tell ya we'll settle the score Pick you up and knock you down Toss you over and throw you around Get out of here you fucking clown Stomp your head into the ground No more x4 No more of you're shit today No more of what you've got to say No more x3 We're tired of your shit So fucking sick of it We're gonna take you behind the woodshed No more of you're shit today No more of what you've got to say Behind the woodshed

Battle axes at the ready Chain mail and wooden shields Gonna raid the village tonight Killing all that put up a fight Longboats they set sail To brave a mighty gale Warriors that they hold So strong and so bold Berserkers at the gates All inside know their fate Killing all that they cross Every life is a loss Battle axes at the ready Chain mail and wooden shields Gonna raid the village tonight Killing all that put up a fight To plunder all the gold That the monasteries hold Battle over, they set sail Leave behind a brutal tale Dying a warrior's death No fear, draw the last breath Valhalla they're coming home Dine beside Odin's Throne Battle axes at the ready Chain mail and wooden shields Gonna raid the village tonight Killing all that put up a fight

Killer 05:06
Stalk the night, Hunt the prey Knife is sharp, Start to slay Evil rises, From within Slice a throat, Mortal sin I'm the killer on the loose Killer, gonna hunt you down Bad intentions, Fill his head Cross his path, Wind up dead Open up, Streets will flood Cut you deep, Smell the blood I'm the killer on the loose Killer, gonna hunt you down Goodbye my loves that I could not save I show my love and I'll dig your grave You are gone but surely not forgotten Down in your hole, your body rotting Over now, One more down Search goes on, A new town Another victim, Feel the pain On the ground, Blood will stain I'm the killer on the loose Killer, gonna hunt you down

Victim 03:59
Chills up my spine Killer come's a creeping Almost out of time Soon my blood is seeping Knife is hard and chrome Thirst is on his mind Soon he'll plunge it home My life he will find Footsteps that fall Chasing me down Killers gonna call Near to me now Plunges it so deep Ending is clear Tears start to weep Death now is near Knife plunges deep Blood starts to weep Days slip away Life ends today Death lurks Time stops Pain creeps Life seeps Death lurks Time stops Pain creeps Life seeps out! VICTIM! x4 Hear I lay now Face pointing down Knife like a plow Death wears my crown Slowly it leaks Puddle starts to grow Eternity it keeps I'm the victim now! VICTIM! x4

Foot on the throttle Pull off the bottle One hand on the wheel Headed for danger I ain't no stranger 3000 pounds of steel Accelerate Dominate Jamming for first Grabbing for second Grinding it into third Race to the death, I've got beer on my breath Octane is running high Slipping and sliding I feel like I'm flying As my life goes passing by Kick into gear Showing no fear Taking on dead man's curve Jump in the saddle Join me for battle If you've got the nerve Dominate Decimate Jamming for first Grabbing for second Grinding it into third Race to the death, I've got beer on my breath Octane is running high Slipping and sliding I feel like I'm dying As my life goes passing by Foot on the throttle Pull off the bottle One hand on the wheel Headed for danger I ain't no stranger 3000 pounds of steel Decimate Terminate Jamming for first Grabbing for second Grinding it into third Race to the death, I've got beer on my breath Octane is running high Slipping and sliding I feel like I'm flying As my life goes passing by Race to the death, I've got beer on my breath Octane is running high Slipping and sliding I feel like I'm dying As my life goes passing by Terminate

Leaving 05:16
Why do you Do me this way? All I want Is you to stay Don't go Left alone Broken down Shattered bone Leaving now Nothing to say My poor heart On it you prey Don't go Left alone Broken down Shattered bone Don't go Left alone Broken down Shattered bone Nothing left Inside me All I have Is misery No Don't go No Don't go Broken down Ripped and torn Wish I was Never born No Don't go No Don't go

Pack it up and roll it out We leave today without a doubt Fueled rocket standing tall A new life for one and all Fire ignites, we slip away Never to return again Pull away from gravity's hold One way ticket for the bold Stay on target for this long shot One more time around the sun In this red dirt we'll grow One more time and then we're home Blue marble past is gone Searching for a brand new dawn Red rock life is near The future becomes so clear Left all that we know Only the brave will go One way ticket for this ride For the future's open wide Stay on target for this long shot One more time around the sun In this red dirt we'll grow One more time and then we're home Ignite the fire, set it off Flames and fuel never stop New home we're headed to Red rock's come into view Rusted land, we touch down Here to stay, coming now Claim our stake for the bold A new life will take hold Stay on target for this long shot One more time around the sun In this red dirt we'll grow One more time and then we're home

The onslaught's coming, you better beware Coming to your town to crush you down The train's on a roll and its taking its toll Not gonna stop with your soul Well you're Not gonna make it When we Crush it down Upon your Flattened head That's when You'll be dead Burnt to the ground and laid out bare We don't give a damn, we don't care Crushed all of you and that's for sure Nothing left to do but endure Well you're Not gonna make it When we Crush it down Upon your Flattened head That's when You'll be dead One more time And we'll mash you down Ground to dust Nothing else remains One more time And we'll mash you down Ground to dust Nothing else remains No More Time Well its been burnt to the ground Nothing else remains of your town

Favored Son 04:42
The hate creeps in Louder than sin Steps in the hall Make me feel small Feel the rain wash away all the stain Leaving now, gotta go, nothing left that'll grow Years roll by, pain won't die Battered soul has taken a toll The things I've done To become The favored son I've sank so low Harvesting all the pain I've sown Feel the rain wash away all the stain Leaving now, gotta go, nothing left that'll grow Years roll by, pain won't die Battered soul has taken a toll No more Your heart No life I take Favored son What have you done To become The chosen one Ghosts live in My backyard Makes my soul Tattered and scarred

Vultures 04:53
Circle high above the ground Prey dead bones are found Glory contracts you'll be bound VULTURES! Pay just to get on stage Lie told you'll earn a wage Laugh for an eternal age VULTURES! Flying high above the ground Swoop down to steal your sound Flying high above the ground Swoop down to steal your sound Feel pain of lies told Fools dreaming of the gold Beat battered bruised and cold VULTURES! Steal from those that trust Feed off of their lust Break bones turn to dust VULTURES! Flying high above the ground Swoop down to steal your sound Flying high above the ground Swoop down to steal your sound Flying high above the ground Swoop down to steal your sound Flying high above the ground Swoop down to steal your sound VULTURES! Flying high above

In this wasteland It's kill or be killed They're out to get you Crushing your will Which one will you be? Hunter or hunted? Taking advantage? Or taken for granted? Brawl Fall Crawl Stand up and fight again Brawl Fall Crawl Unleash the beast within Unforgiving You face your doom No one to help you Is this your tomb? Fear and anger Hatred and pain The power inside you Can push them away Brawl Fall Crawl Stand up and fight again Brawl Fall Crawl Unleash the beast within Despite all you've lost Despite all you're pain No matter the cost You'll find the strength to rise again Unleash the beast within

about

Thundering Herd Durham, North Carolina

Built from the only salvageable parts from multiple defunct bands in a garage on a dead end street full of hot rod parts and liquor stills. A three piece beast of blistering guitar, hammering drums, and pounding bass from the Bull City of Durham, North Carolina. ... more
