about

Quite possibly the only Death Metal track written in memory of the 21st Prime Minister of Australia - Gough Whitlam. .

lyrics

Born into privilege
Bequeathed no allegiance
To notions of plutocracy

Whose sense of injustice
Intolerance to prejudice
Rose universal opportunity

Broke the back of old power
So cold and pernicious
Discrimination the enemy

With foresight and vision
Made evident what we could be
That society’s our responsibility

With strident conviction
Old barriers were torn down
Unapologetic equality

In the hands of Lingiari
Passed back to the Gurindji
Their lands and restored dignity

Equity
Identity
Legacy
Humanity

From malice to tolerance
Stagnation to progress
Ignorance to potentiality

Conceived new horizons
This old man indelible
Antiquity to modernity

You’ll live on in our memory…..

A primal collision of two primitive horrors, mercifully consigned to the mists of legendary half memory. Those who stare into the mists become the beast, those who flee them become the prey. Neither escapes. Ghuughra
