Upon your Judas cradle Ropes made from your skin Burning scent of incense The aroma of your flesh Burning cauldron of tar You're a fancy self made god Completely bound and tied With a mouth full of shit To the rack with them Broken bones pulled out joints Eyes gouged with hot irons Raped by holy man Agonized pain for hours Burning cauldron of tar You're a fancy self made god Open from gut to neck Rats feast from within To the rack with them To the rack with them
In 1984, Larry, Alfred and I met Sherry Bacon, a local vocalist who, unlike us, was very clear on her musical career objectives and had a genuine game plan on their achievement. Alfred invited Sherry over to my Mom's Bethesda MD basement and after several days of musical interaction it became apparent that Sherry was absolutely thrilled at the prospect of joining Force. We did not want to replace Simona, however, but we definitely wanted to lay down some tracks with this exciting Goth, post-punk, type of vocalist who possessed a much more dangerous, crazy, vibe than Simona. Alfred decided to call this project and recording session “Rat Salad”, to distinguish our product from Force, and call this version of the band Cheri Blade. In 1984, Sherry wrote lyrics with Alfred for “Black Widow” and rewrote the lyrics for “Never Again”. She clearly owned these songs in terms of passion and identity and they were perhaps the strongest set of Force songs regarding concept and musical maturity. Collectively, they displayed a musical cohesion that was absent on the other 15 or so Force tunes that were randomly released over the years. All four songs (“Last Chance”, “Black Widow”, “Hell to Pay”, and “Never Again”) were recorded at Cue Recording Studios in Falls Church, VA using eight tracks. Unbeknownst to Larry or me, Alfred decided to release these as a split-album with a local heavy metal group, Obstination, whom we had befriended and shared gigs with over the years. Obstination added three songs and the effort was complete. The four song demo was shopped to major labels and was turned down. Sherry ultimately formed her own band, Chained Lace, and one of the songs on their first record was their own version of “Black Widow”, which she and Alfred had co-written.
@@Solstrykare I like very much the singles. I was not aware of this compilation, I'd love to listen to more of this unveiled stuff. Anyway, thanks for uploading this one.
@@Solstrykare I truly believe it. Really liked this song. The problem is that I'm from Brazil. It's difficult to import this kind of stuff. The cost is prohibitive.
Dottore, Dottore, ma che cazzo fai?! Vorresti avere la vita tra le tue mani. Frustrato e insultato, deriso e ignorato, Tu covi vendetta nel buio castello Col tuo servo storpio, la scienza è il tuo faro Componi quel mostro dal malo cervello. Guardalo! Guardalo! La vita ora pulsa in lui. Fermalo, fermalo! Ha un cuore nero e bastardo. Ti credi Dio in terra, il bene ed il male Peccato che lui è uno strano animale Cucito a pezzetti, le viti nel collo Attento Dottore ti sfugge al controllo Ha il passo pesante, la gente ha paura Miseria dell'uomo che va contro natura. Guardalo! guardalo! La vita ora pulsa in lui. Fermalo! Fermalo! Ha un cuore nero e bastardo. Quel fulmine cieco che squarciò la notte Ridiede una vita rubata alla morte Dottore, dottore, la vita ha un suo ciclo Beata la fine che chiude ogni giuoco Tu non sei Dio in terra, nè bene nè male Hai dato la vita ad un mostro animale. Guardalo, guardalo! La vita ora pulsa in lui Fermalo, fermalo! Ha un cuore nero e bastardo.
