How can you choke up by a metal song? I was listening to the last song on the new Fear Factory cd ‘Mechanize’ . It immediately grasped me because of it’s intensity. Plus, the lyrics and in-between sounds make me snicker a bit: “Final Exit“. A morbid sense of humour.

“Contemplate your last breath as you see the face of death”

The song has a rather depressing undertone so I thought at first, but then, I realized it’s also a celebration of life at the same time. It’s full of pride and stoicism. I really like that. I don’t care how old Burton must be by now, he’s still got one fine voice. It left me thinking, that’s how I want to go out. When I have to go, I want to go out like that!

my souuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul~

I do hope they’ll do a world tour before their “Final Exit”, because I’ll be there as one of the few chicks in the room, making sure I’m not in the dangerous pit area to enjoy the ear violence. It’s sentiment to me, this band. I luffs!
