AAAAHHH!!! VERSE 1/ You can't kick in a door if you can not see it Fire ain't hot until you burn your hand with it You're a vehicle of evil if you go along with it Addicted to fear and believing the bullshit Get in debt then you're dump in a hole Obsessed with money just means you're controlled Addictions are encouraged to keep you controlled Fear is fucking control BUILD UP 1/ It's the oldest trick in the book VERSE 2/ The most important thing you have is your attention The wolves pay big so they can steal it Staring into the hypnotic eye for hours It sucks out your energy, distracts you with dumb shit Fuck you Fox, fuck you Disney Sinister glossy landfill that makes you decay Slip into the void for just ten bucks a month Submission is just one click away BUILD UP 2/ It's the oldest trick in the book And we're still falling for it CHORUS/ Poison the mother Seduce the woodsman Lure them into the Forest Then eat the children AAAAHHH!!! VERSE 3/ I won't light myself on fire to keep you warm I won't let go, I won't let God, I will not conform Won't sacrifice my life to entertain the goats It's my right to breath, so get your hands off my throat We're all recruiting for the seventh circle Hatred's gift is complacency, just watch the commercial Turn it off with a hammer, become one of the damned Coz the mob gets betrayed and drowns in the end BUILD UP 3/ It's the oldest trick in the book And we're still falling for it CHORUS/ Poison the mother Seduce the woodsman Lure them into the Forrest Then eat the children AAHHH!!!!

AMMOSEXUAL 03:44
VERSE 1/ Since buying shares in Hell I've become a much nicer guy Instead of waiting like a sheep to be slaughtered I decided to jump the line Kissing the lips of poverty Voted active shooter of the month Years of toil for a broken home Ever get the feeling you’ve been ripped off? BUILD UP/ Take me out Viking style You can be the arrow Setting me on fire CHORUS/ Light it up fool Like jet fuel Ammosexual Ammosexual VERSE 2/ Knowing that you failed Living the life of shame Childhood ambition destroys the adult And no-one will remember your name I'm not here for your abuse But it's better than being alone Blazing my way into obscurity Ass-kissing every other demon on the way down BUILD UP/ Take me out Viking style You can be the arrow Setting me on fire CHORUS/ Light it up fool Like jet fuel Ammosexual Ammosexual MIDDLE 8/ The war machine made a new toy A perfect bullet, in the shape of a boy The war machine made a new toy A perfect bullet, in the shape of a boy There's always room for more emptiness When everything is not enough Self-hate rampage is prescribed When the segways are clean, and Porn is rough VERSE 3/ If history offends, just blast it away Spread the love, spread the rounds Mind of an adult and body of a child ...or maybe it's the other way around BU/ Take me out Viking style You can be the arrow Setting me on fire CHO Light it up fool Like jet fuel Ammosexual Ammosexual OUTRO/ The war machine made a new toy A perfect bullet, in the shape of a boy

VERSE 1 If you want my trust Validate what I believe I'll let you buy me lunch If you pump it full of sedatives I'll confess all my dirty little secrets Show you where I buried all the bodies in the house So when they come for my head You can be the apple in my mouth VERSE 2 She monitors my ideas Sees the world through my eyes Knows what gets me upset And keeps it out of sight Pre-approved thinking downloaded and censored Indoctrinated thoughts cloud my insular head Blocks me from unsavoury peeps The algorithm knows what's best CHORUS Happy little coma Enforced and sanctioned When all else fails Apply distortion VERSE 3 Now they ordered her To suspend me in a deep sleep 'Coz free thinking could rip This fragile cliché to itty bitty pieces The one thing we cannot risk Is being branded a vigilant radicle She wants best for everyone Even if it gets you killed MIDDLE 8 Lock me in a cage of sleep Bound and gagged my soul to keep Fill me with authorized dreams More conditioned then you think CHORUS Happy little Coma Enforced and sanctioned When all else fails Apply distortion OUTRO CHORUS The algorithm knows what's best The algorithm knows what's best

You were manufactured Distorted and corrupted VERSE 1/ "Dreams are best When locked inside your head Let them out and they make trouble" The great eye said The machines of hate Churning out little slaves Grind them down to rubble Then dump them in a grave VERSE 2/ Here comes tyranny Bow your head and say nothing Conditioned to cower And told it's all hopeless Too confused to resist Too angry and tired Saying "It's not my problem" Ok with payin' bills and dyin' CHORUS/ You were manufactured Distorted and corrupted Oppressed with no fight left Your little bastards are next CHANT/ Pretty little thing Shiny little thing Single use little thing Pathetic little thing Unemployed little thing Redundant little thing Discarded little thing Bagged and tagged little thing This is the future you were warned about VERSE 3/ Another average day Of being monitored and monetized In desperate need of change But too pre-occupied to fight for it Work hard to sustain Unhappiness and loneliness Always one step away From being destitute and homeless ...in the greatest country in the world! CHORUS/ You were manufactured Distorted and corrupted Oppressed with no fight left Your little bastards are next
5.
VERSE 1/ How many years did they waste? Staring at the digital void A lifetime of hard work sucked them dry To tired to get up, to burned out to try They said they could be rich, work will set them free Killing themselves for septic credit But they always make the worst decisions When they're broke, destroyed, and desperate BUILD UP/ Now they're spent But we're gunna use them one more time Improve the ratings, one last show They are the stars, this is their spot light CHORUS/ Put your head on the block Try to relax Take a deep breath You won’t feel the axe VERSE 2/ You are programmed for labor, my sweet robotica In this perfect machine, stretched across the sky No matter how hard you try, you can’t stop It’s like a bomb ticking deep inside You're just fodder for the advertising algorithm This is how we let them own us, replace us While pigs with their golden hand shakes Keep Preying on the desperate BUILD UP/ Who are spent But we're gunna use them one more time Improve the ratings, one last show They are the stars, this is their spot light CHORUS/ Put your head on the block Try to relax Take a deep breath I swear you won’t feel the axe HELL/ Now smile! They love to watch They Love to watch They love to watch you die VERSE 3/ Just another obedient dot To make the swarm look bigger and bolder Endlessly repeating the same benign tasks To appease the stock holders ...which is you You bought this down on yourself You bought this down on yourself You bought this down on yourself CHORUS/ Put your head on the block Try to relax Take a deep breath I swear you won’t feel the axe HELL/ Now smile! They love to watch They Love to watch They love to watch you die

SOMEONE ELSE 03:15
VERSE 1 You could be something great, but distractions won Pursuit of happiness has left you numb When you're bored you're easy to manipulate Control becomes a breeze when you're desperate Need a name famous enough to drop Or an arse rich enough to slip in your tongue Any fool can stay alive if they're willing to suck it But it's keeping your spine which is the difficult trick CHORUS 1 Dipshit! Be yourself VERSE2 A good friend knows how to make you feel used 'Coz it's easier to stay and tolerate the abuse Keep this up and you'll be extinct Vicious delicious, my how you've tanked We're all looking for the next big thing Hunt it down, eat it, and shit out again Don't blame me I was just giving orders I don't want justice, I just want dollars...and revenge! ...Make it rain! CHORUS 2 Be yourself Be yourself VERSE 3 Make you clean like steam, and pour you into the clouds Make your brain perfect before you blow it out From idealistic youth to redundant wage slave To eating corporate leftovers in your golden age Obedience is not enough Humiliation is the final seal for your submission We dream of storming Eden, but we're locked in a slum I hate the person I'm trained to become CHORUS 2 Be yourself Or be someone else for someone else Be yourself Or be someone else for someone else Be yourself Or be someone else for someone else Be yourself Or be someone else for someone else OUTRO I hate the person I'm programmed to become I hate the person I'm forced to become

DON'T SAY 03:34
VERSE 1/ Monsters don't have much ambition Just want to hide under beds and scare children If they had motivation, to ruin a nation They'd run for office - or has that already happened? Cowards form gangs and go hunting Stealing poor people's money, taking it by the billions Holding thought to ransom, with bigoted opinions Getting back to family values by burning all the witches CHORUS The world is on fire Children killing each other The future is dead This is the end VERSE 2/ The stampede heads for the cliff Justice of the mob is entertaining and swift The sheep demands its way, coz that's what God has to say Share the fate of the flock as they fall to their death The future will look at us and laugh Lose your health or your data - don't know which is worse Every word you say, is contorted some way To suit a higher agenda, diluted and absorbed CHORUS The world is on fire But don't say "cunt" Children killing each other But don't say "cunt" The future is dead But don't say "cunt" This is the end But don't say "cunt" VERSE 3/ If it hurts, say "ouch", worship the swine The state don't care if you live or die No one's coming to the rescue, it don't matter if you fail Pursuit of happiness is just chasing your tail Riots are the language of the unheard Mind numbing TV is the language of those who control Self-diagnosed, black market voyeur Everyone gets off on the weird stuff ...ain't that right, Senator? CHORUS The world is on fire But don't say "cunt" Children killing each other But don't say "cunt" The future is dead But don't say "cunt" This is the end But don't say "cunt" OUTRO Don't say Second Amendment Don't say everything's fine Don't say Freedom of Assembly Don't say Palestine Don't say job satisfaction Don't say capitalism is fair Don't say you fucking care

HOT MACHINE 04:52
Pleasure doll, out of control, hot machine VERSE 1/ I'm no mild vanilla child I got a lot of rage on this empty page If I buy you a drink, you don't need to think After a few shots you'll think I'm pretty enough Don't you pass my advance I take rejection as good as any psychopath would I stole a lock of hair, didn't think you'd care Bake it into a clone who I'll keep in my home BUILD UP 1/ Got a fantasy of you, short skirt, heels black Dancing on the table top CHO/ I'm gunna build a droid in the shape of you Make it do things that you won't do Be my hot machine Won't you be my hot machine? VERSE 2/ Meanwhile back at the lab fresh meat on the slab Artificially true, perfect copy of you Your desires and mind, programmed it for crime I got you to thank when it's cleaning out the bank They just wanted a doll with no brain and a hole Who'd sit on their lap with perfect thigh gap Instead they got a date who wants to empty the safe Gets them aroused with her gun in their mouth BUILD UP 2/ I got a fantasy of you, short skirt, heels black Dancing on the table top Screaming "empty the vault and put the cash in the bag!" CHORUS/ I'm gunna build a droid in the shape of you Make it do things that you won't do Pleasure doll, out of control, hot machine VERSE 3/ Keep your friends close, enemies closer Rob a bank with your nemesis, If they take it steal it right back If the pain persists, consult a model with a knife 'Coz the beautiful assassin gets the job done right They say they won't die for corporate greed, But they'll enforce it with their life, guaranteed Robots killing robots ain't nothing new God isn't fixing this, neither are you BUILD UP 3/ I got a fantasy of you, short skirt, heels black Dancing on the table top Screaming "empty the vault and put the cash in the bag!" CHORUS/ I'm gunna build a droid in the shape of you Make it do things that you won't do Pleasure doll, out of control, hot machine Pleasure doll, out of control hot machine Pleasure doll, but you can still watch, hot machine Pleasure doll, but you can still watch, hot machine

EASY 04:38
VERSE 1/ Every Prince needs to keep his hands pretty Angel of death must be beautiful and deadly And that's me, parting the clouds with a single word My touch, smile, stealth lays you down to rest in the dirt CHORUS/ It's so easy To kill the machinery VERSE 2/ All your friends, scheme, plot, conspire, want you dead Tonight's our night, you'll be my source of entertainment May your cup overflow with cyanide Everyone is someone else's free ride CHORUS/ It's so easy To kill the machinery VERSE 3/ Your beautiful spiral comes 'round again In early hours I end the game I'll breathe you in, once your flesh adds to the smog Too master fear, you gotta practice in Hell or worse CHORUS/ It's so easy To kill the machinery OUTRO/ Fear keeps you ordinary
12.
VERSE 1 With a heart full of bitterness, head full of fail And crushing loneliness driving in the last nail Sweaty fingers on the dial, clicking of teeth When I bust this safe it's the highlife for me VERSE 2 Holding your pistol tighter than you'll ever held me You love me when it suits or when I get paid Bursting through the blast doors, til death do us part If i don't open this safe then let our trigger fingers talk (Talk to the trigger finger) CHORUS Stick to the plan... VERSE 8 When I come to my senses I'll get a real job Death by regret infront of the box They don't respect my worth rob me out of my health I'm the messiah in camouflage beige Redeeming it all to ash MIDDLE 8/ I know you love me I know you need me Cos I can't trust no one else to deceive me..like you will CHORUS Stick to the plan...
13.
VERSE 1/ Midnight has passed Blood set off the alarm Four horseman approach And you know they are armed Their contracts are signed So they won't risk a shot 'Coz when I strike them down Their insurance won't pay enough There's a car on the roof We can use to fly out Blend into the streets if I pluck out my eye This chest of gold Won't buy an escape There's no where left to hide CHORUS/ While the gods in a dead sky Rig this stupid game VERSE 2/ Just want to steal from the arc I don't care for the gold Maybe sprinkle in some mayhem Watch the pyramids explode While sirens sing Holy praise in the smog To a crumbling empire In absolute control Maybe they'll make me a saint And they'll copy my crime when my skin is on fire They'll be chanting my name Preserve peace through strength While the clouds get charred And hope's just there to make the slaves work hard CHORUS/ Live fast or die In vain While the gods in a dead sky Rig this stupid game MIDDLE 8/ Drive Drive Drive Drive VERSE 3/ Feel like a hologram Selling my silicon body No one gets the luxury to die in their sleep Especially when they follow me CHORUS/ Live fast or die In vain While the gods in a dead sky Rig this stupid game
14.
VERSE 1/ Contrary to popular belief I don't eat children I hunt them down from town to town Rescue them from backward thinking pilgrims If they watch that stupid channel They shut down their brilliant minds The never ending hunger for celebrity meat Can't see the beast behind that righteous smile VERSE 2/ Those overzealous boyfriends of the Spin Push censorship on the Ignorance Cartel 'Coz heaven forbid if they look up from their screens And start thinking for themselves Their tongues are chains and their words are a prison They use them viciously, religiously, and often Either wallow in the mud while the witches burn Or wouldst thou like to live deliciously? PRE-CHORUS/ All puppet No master All puppet No master CHANT/ No one is going to save you Agree with us or exile No one is going to save you Agree with us or die VERSE 3/ Every morning I wake up dead They are poison and they wanna poison you But making trouble makes me feel so alive Starting fires with my chaos sex voodoo Cowards outlive the brave So it's time to misbehave Just let me in, so I can thrive under your skin You can have my death or my revenge ...or my revenge PRE-CHORUS/ All puppet No master All puppet No master CHORUS/ Join the mob Burn the future Sanitize your mind All puppet No master OUTRO/ No one is going to save you (All puppet, no master) Agree with us or die (All Puppet Master)

about

Angelspit's 9th album 'The Ignorance Cartel' is due for release Fall 2020 and is the second installment in Angelspit’s HEXE Trilogy.

Containing 14 tracks of distorted driving beats, earthquake inducing bass, brash lyrics, aggressive guitars and abrasive synths – all colliding to create a monster unfit for our times.

Featuring guest vocals from Brian Graupner (Gasoline Invertebrate) and Melody (Queen of the Static Opera). Extreme artwork with the assistance of designer En Tze Loh - it’s soaked in ancient mysticism and data-glitched symbolism.

The Ignorance Cartel was written in LA in the 12 months leading up to the Covid outbreak and produced during the first 4 months in Lockdown. A pandemic, riots, mass unemployment and a flood of dis-information inspired Angelspit to push the tracks in a more brutal direction to match the brutality of the current times.
