Lyrics:
Words and Music by Allen Dean

I am your waking nightmare
I am the shadow on the wall
Vision of your screams, the silent death at your door
~ Set me free~
Brought to life but not alive
Lightning in my brain and blood
Superstitions set to run
Almost a man, in a human bag of bones.

I am the progeny of science
Son of a man wishing to be a god
Servant of my fate, no mercy on my brow
Vision in the flames, the monster in your fairy tales
~Let me be~

Brought to life but not alive
Lightning in my brain and blood
Set to flame by angry mobs
Acting like a man, nothing but a monster

where is my father
without a home
no understanding

Brought to life but not alive
Lightning in my brain and blood
Set to run by everyone
Not quite a man, but very, very much alive
I am a monster
I am the monster
I am a monster
I am a man

a monster of a collaboration. Love the unusual 'backing' vocals that fit the song so well.
Great lyrics, music and vocals. Production, of course, top notch - downloaded. Thanks.
Cheers

Did you say heavy? How about massive? &mdash 01/17/08 - 04:54:10 PM
Killer production and great vocals - I also dig the peripheral noises and backing vox. Excellent collab guys.

Full sail on the heavy metal, super rockin. You have a great vox, should pan it across the channels instead of dwelling on the far left - my 2 cents

I had to listen on your collab &mdash 01/18/08 - 11:18:34 AM
And I can tell you it was worth all waiting for the song to load... u now I only have 56k modem so it take 25-30 min to load it.

When I get that BROADBAND I come to d-load it that is for sure.

Take care brothers

YAA!!(devil horns!) &mdash 01/18/08 - 02:30:23 PM
This song makes me want to drink beer and headbang!

I love the mix. One of your best to date.

I'm diggin the vox and "Slayer" solo alot, and that main riff rips my head off!

You guy's better put out disclaimers for possible neck injury due to headbanging!

Great job MC!

Chris

A Haunting Twist &mdash 01/18/08 - 04:57:14 PM
Most of those science fiction horror musics seemed so corny... But with this song, you dragged out an eerie psychology that I hadn't considered too deeply before. Made it seem like we could have monsters walkin' around anywhere... And they'd be men too. And they'd crave something. Oof. Great job. The quality is awesome. I guess the only thing I didn't like too much was the broad spacing between each verse in the lyrics. I would've found more value in hearing them closer against each other, like more of a poem. The way you did it was understandable %u2013 not a ruiner for me.

You talkin to me?? &mdash 01/19/08 - 02:02:57 AM
That's De Niros Monster, isnt it?

You guys cant put a foot wrong, and basically need to be signed and be on the many rock stations across america.

Thats all I have to say, other than you guys never disappoint.

Outstanding sound &mdash 01/19/08 - 10:52:30 PM
This rocks. It's hard and heavy, without losing focus or clarity. Great guitar sounds (love the sound on the lead), nice drum sounds, and terrific vocal - a powerful voice. The mix is very nicely done - nothing is lost, and nothing overwhelms (except the whole song, in a good way!) Honestly, this is better than most of the hard rock you can hear on radio these days. Great collab - you guys really are on a roll. Nicely done. Peace.

thank you all &mdash 01/20/08 - 04:00:45 PM
for everything... this one was a bear to mix for me, so many different elements... and, when i was done, i hated the solos, so i replayed them.... then needed to re-mix the whole thing over...then i got more volume out of the movie clips.... remix.... then i wanted more bottom from jason's bass.... remix.....whew....

Great metal sound on this one. That riff is killer man. I wish I could play a solo like that. Good job.
