evilonline Brilliant stuff from “down under”. In Violent Glory is a must listen. Grind at it’s best. Brutal shit, a must listen. Favorite track: In Violent Glory.

snaggletoothwarpig How it's done.
Hot box is fucking ferocious, condemned & psychopulation are family favorites..
Production is slick as
I luv yous guys Favorite track: Hot Box.

Noob Heavy Fucken sick cunts aye Favorite track: In Violent Glory.

deathgrindnut74 Abu Ghraib are superb.

The intensity on this EP is nothing short of brilliant. Played with absolute conviction, riffs that make this old-man want to jump in the pit and get fucked-up, and with a production on-point which compliments the style of Abu Ghraib’s approach to Grind makes this a high-rotation listen.

My AOTY 2019: A must for everyone’s extreme metal collection. I can’t pick a favourite track, but I suggest: Condemned or Inhumanitarian.

10/10 - I fucking love this band Favorite track: Condemned.

1.	Silent Beheading 02:05	lyrics	buy track
Dragged to an unknown location Bound and bleeding out Rope burns and lacerations Tight against my throat "Heretic, meet your end" Vulnerable, limp, and lifeless Prepared for a shallow grave Emotions have left me All but fear Nowhere to hide No thoughts but empty whispers and Gestures to a voice that mocks me "Pray... Pray for death!" Savage blows strike the back of my head Granting me a brief respite from The terror that overwhelms my body As I numb from the pain encumbering me "God help me..." To which I've realized that there's no answer And that here is where my existence meets it's end No escape Taking my last breath Apathetic as the pressure from the blade meets my welcoming neck Body limp Eyes turn black As i'm left Beheaded
2.	In Violent Glory 04:30	lyrics	buy track
Enshrined in a blind devotion Bloodlust empowers me Leading down to self destruction Body imbued with fervor Fueling vile tendencies Implanting egotistic lies Forgive our disgrace We know not what we do Servants of death Obsolete conscience Easily misled by certainty Making the ultimate sacrifice "Justified" martyrdom In time you will learn to enjoy the hostility Rendering all inhospitable and desecrated Yet to think that in irony You will not live to see the Pyrrhic victory Cyclical patterns coiling our own arrogance "As ancestors before us, and generations to come: We shall return to dust." Silently fighting off all of my hesitation To question this grand fantasy Dissidence, apostasy Sings a familiar refrain as I remember "Paradise beckons above As glory awaits Cut off your strings, puppets of god! Seek reality..." Slowly my sanity bends Nerves uncontrollably numb The mind gives in And betrays the body As it repeats the mantra "Paradise beckons above As glory awaits Cut off your strings, puppets of god! Seek reality..." Children of perdition Damned to servitude Outcast to the unknown Wastelands become our tombs Forgive our disgrace We know not what we do Servants of death Obsolete consciousness Nothing more than fodder bred for murder for a pointless cause Yet still we're giving in to become the holy ultimate sacrifice
3.	Hot Box 01:11	lyrics	buy track
Compression Anticipation Of a looming decay Demanding impotence of self Restriction Feeling helpless Tempers boil from within A bind that forms no escape Beaten down into repression Empty minds forming a pit Devoid of meaning Repressing Mental burden Hopelessness and despair Descending deeper into hell Constricting Disconnection Rapid obsolescence Lashing out with mindless aggression Content with the duplicity Becoming a broken tool Used without purpose Superficial ablution Becoming a herd of lost Sheep without shepherds The embodiment of primordial chaos manifesting death
4.	Inhumanitarian 02:32	lyrics	buy track
Hatred borne from loathing each other Inherent human disease We cannot build forth a future From not what was meant to be Blind hypocrites Selfish mass Of pure ignorance Scum Increasing conflict Blind resentment Of the oppressed Bred in excess Becoming human sacrifice Searching for answers Corrupt power Of our empires Past and fallen Abundant in our weaknesses Instead of seeking the enlightenment You've taken away the ability So pious in your credulity These hands that have seen death Sheltered away from all living things In darkness I find serenity Devastating consequence Crumbling empires counting graves Overpopulating our minds With frivolity Feeding the frustrations In every human being Surrounded by our voices Entombed in misery Doomed to certain failure Condemned to history So reflect when darkness seeps into light We've now blinded ourselves Shielded by our selfish incompetence
5.	Condemned 03:16	lyrics	buy track
Awakened by a silent whisper The wind transcribes my end Gently lashing my face Bitterness and realization Outcast by those who would be considered brethren Four walls surrounding me Light breaks from the hole above me No escape from this confinement Submitting to the psychosis (Looking back) Did I fight the monster? (Seeking truth) Or was it me? (Living proof) Blood on my hands not of mine, What have I done? (Lacking will) Seeking the answer (Giving in) Of my actions (Punishment) Solitude, my suffering Payments for crimes In this forsaken hole My existence Reduced to live out my end Witness to my own death Left abandoned Only one escape from this Making preparations Incantations To reach where I deserve to be Hallucinations and apparitions Dance around me As I collapse Warped and twisted Losing sense of Limited awareness Blacking out to dancing shadows Pulling away Suddenly the realization I am my own enemy The faces of my betrayal Basked in genocide Actions from my own hands Taking of their lives Useless expenditure Miserable undertakings Pointless endeavor Perceptions severed Relinquishing all my control Exterminating the logical Survival instinct now kicks in Preservation of sanity slipping away Un-animated and lifeless Just as those that I left behind For this there's no answer: Will I be welcome in the afterlife? Plague upon the world Born to die alone Left in peace forevermore
6.	Psycopulation 02:04	lyrics	buy track
Controlled mindsets Hidden Strategies Fake confessions Mental torment Impossible Idiocracy Perfect in our denial Communication failure Ambition to brainwash the masses Strategies developing, contained within Curating content Desecrating the mind Fed into the maw of madness Persuaded by methods of ill intent Domesticated through psychology Contrarian discourse Raked through the coals of orthodoxy Manipulated identity Expendable humanity Engineered reality Deceived and destroying Dispersing society Selling the tools of our own destruction
