Hell
Lyrics : Sean Lang
Song composed (music and vocal arrangement) and
produced by : André C. Kalipke
André : The MA song with the most "EBM" potential. Straight from hell ! ;) Well done, Sean !
Sean : André initially gave me a 40-second instrumental in 4/92 with strings that had a swirling, descending sound. That gave me the idea of writing a song about the underworld. A month later, André came back with the full instrumental, but with a sound that was more synthesized. I came up with lyrics and a vocal arrangement and we recorded it in 7/92. At the end of the year, André came up with a new refrain and vocal arrangement (this version). This is the last Modern Age song recorded with vocals to date.
(Please also read the author comments of "The Band Introduces Itself" (vocal and recording quality, etc.)...). Lyrics - see below.
HELL
You've made it to this place down under
Welcome to the underworld
We've prepared a place here for you
You'll never leave - it's but assured
Look at this feast before you
Hope you'll enjoy it while you may
I'll guard and look upon you
While you so slowly rot away
It's time to die - it's time to go to hell
It's time to die - it's time to go to hell right now
You are starting to grow weaker
As the pain ceases to subside
It could become even worse now
If you don't follow and abide
The light has turned to darkness
You think it's over for you now
But this kingdom's never ending
It just goes on and on somehow
