From my old band, Obliteration, comes the “Dying Age” demo. This song is entitled, By His Blood. Obliteration was born in 1997 and was a christian death metal band from Oklahoma City, OK. The full 4-song demo was featured on a compilation and distributed by Cross Rhythms/Blastbeats Music. I was the original vocalist of the band as featured on the Dying Age demo. Once I left the band, the name of the band was changed to Death List and lead guitarist, Kevin Tubby, took over on vocal duties in addition to lead guitar. As Death List, the band went on to record a full length album called “Severed.” A couple months after the recording of the new album, I rejoined the band. Unfortunately, the band broke up in January 1999.
Lyrics:
Break away!
Confront the hate of the damned
Consumed in blood,
Helpless souls await the command
Given the chances to rebuff the mistakes
Ignorance to turn away the truth
And breathe the last breath
The return – spilling blood across the land
Untold ages of sin
Forgiven are those who keep the faith.
By his blood are redeemed
Massacred – millions of lives
They choose their own way to burn
World wars raging on
Prelude – destruction imminent,
No way, cannot live without
The love of the God that lives
The wars of all time
All who defy him shall die.
Break away!
Confront the hate of the damned
Consumed in blood,
Helpless souls await the command
Given the chances to rebuff the mistakes
Ignorance to turn away the truth
And breathe the last breath
World wars raging on
Prelude – Destruction imminent,
No way, cannot live without
The love of the God that lives
The return – spilling blood across the land
Untold ages of sin
Forgiven are those who keep the faith.
By his blood are redeemed
Massacred – millions of lives
They choose their own way to burn…
By His blood…
