DESCRIPTION: If you like your metal smoking with rifftacular aggression, Lich King will wreck your stupid face. Lich King is a five-piece from Massachusetts... an east coast modern band with a west coast thrash metal sound straight out of 1987. "Act of War" is a song from the 2010 album "World Gone Dead" and is positively sick with headbangable riffs in the vein of Exodus, Slayer, Anthrax, S.O.D. and Vio-Lence. If you like old-school thrash metal, you'll like this song.

LYRICS
-- LEAD LYRICS --
Ugh!
Faceless dissenters in an ambulating swarm
Boiling from the cloud of us and them
Hateful assassins hurling thunder in the storm
Driven by the differences in men
Men!
War is on but never final
The casualty survives
Lines are drawn intangible but
Combatants greedy resharpen the scythe
Battle horn the trumpet clearing
Cacophony of words
Oaths are sworn and heads are taken
Bout is won but nothing has occurred
Bragging rights the spoils in a war of tiny men
When the dust begins to settle the fight begins again
Pettiness a virtue the badge of piss and pride
What you have created
It's a thrash crime
Harvesting rewards from the hours used in spite
Tearing out the throat of a fool because it's right
Obfuscate the meaning and re- educate the swine
Opinion is invalid
It's a thrash crime
Whoa keening the vultures on the body- littered earth
Picking at the carcasses of peers
Sated each cackling a new line to the verse
Only half- attending what it hears
Wages cost shame is crushing
Compounded by the din
All is lost a head is hanging
Confidences shattered for his sins
Teeming sea the colosseum
A circus for the dogs
Willingly the victims enter
To take part in a violent dialogue
Bragging rights the spoils in a war of tiny men
When the dust begins to settle the fight begins again
Pettiness a virtue the badge of piss and pride
What you have created
It's a thrash crime
Harvesting rewards from the hours used in spite
Tearing out the throat of a fool because it's right
Obfuscate the meaning and re- educate the swine
Opinion is invalid
It's a thrash crime it's a thrash crime
You are judged and sentenced to burn!
Yeah!
Huah act of war!
Act of war!
Act of war!
Act of war!
Act of war!
Huah!
