Rail Rage 03:00
Cramped in the boxcar with hundreds of blank faces Burst with adrenaline as the metal races Inhale the steam as the metal grinds the track One way ticket to madness, there’s no turning back The choking black cloud covers the sky As coal burns driving the steel beast by In the hands of a man pushed to the brink Passengers sever his capacity to think Rail rage, deafening blast Step on the tracks, you will not last Rail rage, come feel the sound Of the metal strings tightly wound Rail rage, jump in the pit As you’re pounded by the drum kit The conductors take the stage As you thrash your skull to Rail Rage Bloodshot eyes pulse red with rage Brakes will permanently disengage Two engines set to explode and collide The boiling mob set for a fiery ride Rail rage, deafening blast Step on the tracks, you will not last Rail rage, come feel the sound Of the metal strings tightly wound Rail rage, jump in the pit As you’re pounded by the drum kit The conductors take the stage As you thrash your skull to Rail Rage Rail rage, deafening blast Step on the tracks, you will not last Rail rage, come feel the sound Of the metal strings tightly wound Rail rage, jump in the pit As you’re pounded by the drum kit The conductors take the stage As you thrash your skull to Rail Rage

Terror Tower 03:52
Working in the hot sun and now it’s time to unwind Snorting rails off the rails to stimulate my mind Dispatcher comes passing by when he sees the white lines He gets his boss to fire me, bringing his death to design Clawing at the walls in a powder-fueled rage Ready to explode, but first that bitch is gonna pay Charging to the railyard like a beast out of its cage Revenge comes this day! The engines fly off the rails along with the wagons Into the base of the tower, the train smashes The bitch is locked in the top of the Terror Tower, Terror Tower His demise will be music to my eyes Picking the lock on the cab of an SD40 Igniting the engine, he’ll be screaming “Oh lordy, lordy!” Throwing the throttle into notch eight A world of pain for him awaits Racing down the track at the devil knows how fast My hostage is handcuffed to his fucking chair Switch is set for diverging, this’ll be a blast No chance of escaping by even a hair The engines fly off the rails along with the wagons Into the base of the tower, the train smashes The bitch is locked in the top of the Terror Tower, Terror Tower His demise will be music to my eyes A giant hole on the bottom story of the tower The top story comes crashing down to the ground The fire from the diesel fuel engulfs the wood Die where you stood! The engines fly off the rails along with the wagons Into the base of the tower, the train smashes The bitch is locked in the top of the Terror Tower, Terror Tower His demise will be music to my eyes

Demand 01:58
I will unleash the sun on the world Atomic blasts to char mankind The bombs’ destruction to be unfurled Annihilation is my peace of mind The world is my hostage with no hope to survive One order ends eight billion breaths There won’t be anything left alive You will face my demand for death Reduce skyscrapers down into dust I will erase all proof of life on Earth The planet covered in red winds of rust You will see your life never had worth One button ends eight billion lives I am the mortal god of man The nuclear flash is my apocalypse’s sign You’ll perish under my demand for death

Ghost 03:15
Trapped in the space between death and life I wander limbo in meaningless strife Lingering hatred leaves me on this plane To exact vengeance on those who had me slain From my shallow grave, I rise With the black void of death in my eyes Doom follows within my wake Their bodies, their minds, and their souls will break Twisting their flesh right off the bone Through their screams and pain, revenge is known Splattering the walls with their mutilated brains We’ll all go down to hell in chains A tornado of damned souls surrounds me As retribution drives the killing spree Let all know my eternal misery As their blood showers me in victory
5.
Dirt Nap 02:05
Take a dirt nap In the ground Bury yourself With a frown Here comes nap time Catch some z’s There’s no next time Once you bleed Score’s been settled Shallow grave Dancing above You decay Take a dirt nap You’re worm shit You’re defeated Endless sleep See you in hell Under my feet You wake in flames Satan’s bitch

Welcome to bastion from the light Where shadows claim the brave and bright Many are lured to their graves Step into the dark where you can’t be saved Acidic ooze dripping from the stone Burning flesh melts off porcelain bone Echoes from beyond in chambers cold Corpses rot beneath the mold Down the granite steps You approach your death Cross the arcane border To the Tomb of Horrors A world worse than Hell Your soul will now dwell One more claimed explorer For the Tomb of Horrors Down the granite steps You approach your death Cross the arcane border To the Tomb of Horrors A world worse than Hell Your soul will now dwell One more claimed explorer For the Tomb of Horrors

Wild Hunt 02:08
Riding with fire and steel in our hands Death is on our side tonight Burning the village and slaying the men It will be useless to fight Slashing and hacking at all in our way Sending our victims to Hell Murdering, enslaving, raping all life No one will be left to tell Wild Hunt Wild Hunt Tearing through the land at the speed of light Maiming all we come across Their bones snap in our teeth as arrows draw blood Our victory is their loss Slashing and hacking at all in our way Sending our victims to Hell Murdering, enslaving, raping all life No one will be left to tell Wild Hunt Wild Hunt Leaving their homeland in ruins and dust Capturing those we desire The bodies in our wake are burned and defiled Gain Satan's favor, God's ire Slashing and hacking at all in our way Sending our victims to Hell Murdering, enslaving, raping all life No one will be left to tell The Wild Hunt Wild Hunt

Methods of murder from a mind long forlorn The deviant path of a life scorned and torn Mad revenge against the past, the target victim’s all The strike of the midnight hour is the call to bring the fall Stalking in the shadows to deliver the killing blow A knife, club, axe, or hammer will send you down below And if I decide to go with an anesthetic attack I’ll laugh as you wake up tied down to the railroad tracks Venom inside of your veins to bring a silent death Garotte wire around your neck to cut your breath Depravity and schadenfreude are fuel for my pleasure Sadistic need to see you bleed beyond all measure Methods of murder No one will live to tell Methods of murder Ring the funeral bell
9.
From the Scythian steppes to the Black Sea shores Arrows mark a land marred by war Swords clash against blood-steeped spears Wielded by those that all men fear Their chariots thunder across the hills As the Roman war god exacts his will Sweat chills the skin of those who hear the roar The battle cry of the daughters of Mars The shield line forms The arrows swarm The spearheads wait To seal the fate Born to carry a weapon in hand Surviving where chaos blooms in the land Cold-blooded, hot-blooded, iron-blooded soldiers The brutality of Ares is theirs to shoulder Battle will greet a glorious end For the tribe whose knees will never bend The Amazon warriors display their scars For pride never dies in the daughters of Mars Slay those around Penthesilea’s grounds Feared near and far The Daughters of Mars

about

"Rail Rage’s debut contains nine tracks of the finest thrash that I have heard in quite some time. I have heard a lot of thrash bands over the years, but not many that can quite capture the origins of the genre. The whole 80’s vibe is all there catapulting me back in time to the glory years of thrash." 4.5/5

- Andy Phelps, The Metal Age
