Description
I was asked to put a guitar lead on this rockin' track by Ariel (Vegetal). After doing so, I asked him if someone was going to do vocals and he said that he had asked around. To be honest, I didn't think I was the right voice to sing on it at all but it seemed a waste to let it go. The other day, I listened it and Lifeaftersix's' guitar reminded me of Dr. know of Bad Brains (one of my fave hard rock bands ever!). So I got to thinking... could I pull of an HR type vocal for it. The result came out as a political send off for you know who ... I hope you like it.

Vegetal: Drums, Bass, Keys
Lifeaftersix: Rhythm Guitar
Luna Trick: Vocals, Lead Guitar

Engage Your Rage (Lyrics by Luna Trick)

Engage
Engage

Cowboy skull n bones
Intelligence a bust
A 'decider' in his dreams
A puppet for manipulation
Lazy thief of power
An earpiece for his God
A leader of an arrogant nation

Engage Your Rage!

Cronies stuff the courts
Toadies hack the news
Control defines the patriot
War profit for the King

Engage Your Rage!

Bully of the nations
Torture for the Righteous
Eavesdrop on the innocent
Drowning of the downtrodden
Fear as a weapon wielded
Lobby for a slice of pie
Oil for the blood of peasants
Tycoon taxcuts given here

Engage Your Rage!

Stall while the world is warming
Trash family privacy
Deny that the nation's ailing
Kick a poor man to the ground
Thumb your nose at older culture
Steal from your children's trust

Engage

Unilateral executive
National guard pretender
Ground zero posturing
Drunken crusader
Bailout prince of racketeers
Disparager of freedom
Swiftboat morals for a preacher
You gotta engage now
You gotta engage now

Engage!

yo
dude, very nicely done. the kick was a little weak in my opinion. good punch, but not enough of a full, bassy sound. other than that, really nice. screamin' solo!

Sounds good ....
... unfortunately due to my headcold status ... I also seem to have plugged up ears and couldn't hear it as LOUD as I am sure it is .... I knew my ears were all plugged up cause when I swallowed I could hear for about 1 second .. then my ears went all cloggy again ..... but it sounded good regardless ! I'll have to give it a proper listen when my head clears ! Diggin the album art too!

Engage my rage? After listening to this I want to. :) This is great. I really loved the lead guitar and well, just about everything. Maybe a synth pad or something but "blank" in the empty spots might help for me...?? Great as is.

Thanks for sharing,

Engage Your Rage
The guitar sounds so overprocessed and soulless I can't listen to it very seriously. But the lyrics are... well they aren't really that great or anything, but they're not bad and you're talking about something important so I'll give you a thumbs up on that.
