“Epidemic, millions die with no hope of a cure, The infected start to rot, torment they can’t endure, As one their dying souls cry out, to gods that do not hear, Murderous depravity, death is drawing near, Cities slowly pounded into dust, populations run in terror as they die, Spill their blood, merciless destruction, cause of death, Spirits fall to HELL, eternally condemned, Terrorize with deadly force, spare no lives, There is no remorse”
“Coming down in two’s and three’s, have ready your payment please, Porky pieces will see you through, hopefully a day or two, To disobey will do you harm, suck the gristle from your arm, When the pig is at an end, no longer will you be our friend, Invasion of the porky men, we’ll rid you of your children then your men”
English Dogs are a British hardcore punk/thrash metal band that formed in the early 80’s. They started as a punk outfit then they got into the thrash movement of the 80’s and their albums became more metallic like “Where Legend Began” “Forward Into Battle” and Invasion Of The Porky Men” pure sonic chaos!
Also playing: The Casualties – crusty New York street punk band that formed in the early 90’s, raw, fast and loud an unrelenting assault of adrenalized buzzsaw guitars, choked vocals and group choruses. Toxic Holocaust – thrash metal with some punk mix into it from Portland led by Joel Grind, Havok – the best thrash metal band from the Rockies.
“I wanna be stereotyped, I wanna be classified, I wanna be a clone, I want a suburban home, Suburban home, I wanna be masochistic, I wanna be a statistic, I wanna be a clone, I want a suburban home” Suburban home, I don’t want no hippie pad, I want a house just like mon and dad”
The Descendents are a legendary punk rock band from California that formed in the late 70’s. Led by Milo and a gang of snot-nose punks they’ve released several albums through the years including their first; the fast and disorderly “Fat EP” and the classic “Milo Goes To College.”
“I wanna go two steppin’, with a good lookin’ big black buck, I want him to come and pick me up in his chevrolet pick-up truck, and when we’re on the dance floor his hat will rise high above, It’s inter-racial cowboy homo kind of love, Tall of course dark and handsome, a gentlemen in every way, A true cow poke in every sense of the word, we really go to work in the hay”
“The children are filled with religious ecstasy when the spirit of Lucifer sweeps through them upon initiation” Ave Satanas!

“Your numbers up you have to go, the system say’s “I told you so” Stocked in a train like a truckload of cattle, sent off to slaughter in a useless battle, Thousands of us sent off to die, never really knowing why, Fuck the system they can have me, I don’t need society”
