SR388 03:38
From the depths of planet Zebes where the mother laid in wait, A head-huntress out for bounty sent down to eradicate, To the parasitic homeworld for destruction of their kind, To send laser beams into their queen and rid us of their slime. Go, before it's too late, Seal the creatures to their fate, Called to exterminate on SR388. Ancient cities lie in ruins as the magma starts to rise, She descends into the caverns to commit her genocide, For galactic liberation they're condemned and forced to die, With her heart of stone that she gladly owns she silences their cries. Go, before it's too late, Seal the creatures to their fate, Called to exterminate on SR388.

Hey, are you talking to me? Cuz no one else here cares to notice me, When they're here, I seem to all but disappear. Is it from their own ignorance or I am of no importance, Or am I the only one who matters, Why do you keep talking to me everyone else sees right through me, Honey, please, I'm flattered. Am I real or is the way you feel the only thing that's brought me here, Are the answers getting clearer, has there been some sort of error. Am I an illusion in your head brought on by states of panic, One day will you wake up just to see that I have vanished, Am I there behind the wheel, have you given me your life to steal, Am I the answer to your prayers, or am I all just Smoke and Mirrors, honey. Now are things falling apart from inside your house of cards, You tricked yourself right from the start, Was life just getting a little too hard. In a world of disillusion adding to your own confusion, It's leaving you in tatters, A life outside reality inhabited by you and me, Your perceptions will be shattered. Am I real or is the way you feel the only thing that's brought me here, Are the answers getting clearer, has there been some sort of error. Am I an illusion in your head brought on by states of panic, One day will you wake up just to see that I have vanished, Am I there behind the wheel, have you given me your life to steal, Am I the answer to your prayers, or am I all just Smoke and Mirrors, honey. Am I real or is the way you feel the only thing that's brought me here, Are the answers getting clearer, has there been some sort of error. Am I an illusion in your head brought on by states of panic, One day will you wake up just to see that I have vanished, Am I there behind the wheel, have you given me your life to steal, Am I exactly as you feared, am I all just Smoke and Mirrors.

I came to steal, Every thing you thought was real, My purpose was mistaken, Cuz I smoke meth and I hail Satan. Eat from the palm of my hand, You're the Isaac to my Abraham, Because I am that I am, And you were just my Sacrificial Lamb. Take you up the mountain, Spill your blood out like a fountain, While your arms and legs are tied, God won't still my blade this time. Eat from the palm of my hand, You're the Isaac to my Abraham, Because I am that I am, And you were just my Sacrificial Lamb.

Haunted 04:40
Feeling tortured and so ashamed, It's hard to keep your head above the waves, All my help has come too late, You tried your best just to escape. You're Haunted by the things you've seen, Haunted by the memories, Haunted by the ghosts of all the things we used to be, You're Haunted from our past life, Haunted from internal strife, I'm on my knees, oh, God, please, Take my sight from me. You feel the pressure and you're starting to cave, From having to act like everything's okay, No one understands and you just wanna scream, The panic's attacking and getting harder to breathe. Stress has you bursting at the seams, Just know you're still a human being. You're Haunted by the things you've seen, Haunted by the memories, Haunted by the ghosts of all the things we used to be, You're Haunted from our past life, Haunted from internal strife, I'm on my knees, oh, God, please, Take my sight from me. Crushing weight upon your shoulders, Not knowing where next to go, There's nothing else that's left to do, But kill the creature haunting you. She's Haunted by the things she's seen, Haunted by her memories, Haunted by the ghosts of all the things we used to be, She's Haunted from her past life, Haunted from internal strife, I'm on my knees, oh, God, please, Take my sight from me.

Oh what's the matter, honey, Did things not go your way, Did everything back fire from all the traps you've laid. You tell everyone else how their life should be led, Even though they call your legs a rumor from how easily the spread. You say that Life's a Bitch, but honey, So Are You, You're drownin' in the misery that you're addicted to, Everything gets handed to you, Still you say Life's a Bitch, oh, But So Are You. I call you cheap and easy, You call me trailer trash, But I bet you'd call me karma if you knew the way I'd bite your ass. You think I'm too close minded, Want me to be open more, But I don't wanna get you in my head, I wanna come in yours. You say that Life's a Bitch, but honey, So Are You, You're drownin' in the misery that you're addicted to, Everything gets handed to you, Still you say Life's a Bitch, oh, But So Are You. So Are You, So Are You, So Are You.

Home 04:01
In the heart of desolation, I feel my mind decay from further isolation, In the corner of my thoughts, You are running rampant and I wish this all could stop. On the borderline and all alone, Trapped in places that I've outgrown, Had enough of being on my own, Now it's time for me to find my way back Home. As the distance starts to climb, I can't stand the thoughts of leaving you behind, All of the months I'll have to wait, As I slowly watch my happiness burn and disintegrate. On the borderline and all alone, Trapped in places that I've outgrown, Had enough of being on my own, Now it's time for me to find my way back Home.

about

The new breed of heavy metal is upon us! Help usher it in with six face-blistering, gut-wrenching tracks from Pittsburgh heavy metal band, Klaymore. The 2013 EP is now available in physical, digital, and t-shirt format.

"Klaymore return off of their sophomore full length 'It’s Alive' to show how relentless they can be on the six song EP 'New Breed.' While 'Primed for Destruction' was a solid debut and 'It’s Alive' put the band’s ability on display, 'New Breed' is really where they begin to shine. This is pure thrash-and-power inspired heavy metal the whole way through. The overall feel of the album is also much darker, especially the synth work on 'Smoke and Mirrors,' the intro to 'SR388' and the moody, bass-driven album closer 'Home.' 'Life’s A Bitch (But So Are You),' in addition to having the greatest song title ever, features the line “They call your legs a rumor from how easily they spread," which is one of my favorite lyrics on the album. It’s clever and adds a punch of humor on an album that, purely based on the riffs and atmosphere, could have easily taken itself too seriously. 'New Breed' is a fantastic EP that takes a lot of the things that Klaymore did right on 'It’s Alive' and drastically improves them." -Chris Gable, Metal Archives
