    FUNERAL NATION – After the Battle (Slipcase CD + Pôster + Stickers)

    Originally released by cultured TURBO MUSIC in 1991, ′′ After the Battle ′′ was the debut album by Americans of FUNERAL NATION. Particularly this was an album that marked the season, during the ′′ transition ′′ between traditional metal and the then-new feared Black Metal of the early 90 s! We can undoubtedly assert that Funeral Nation in its early career dealt with a nefarious continuation of Venom and Bulldozer's primordial releases in all its glory, but still keeping strong the tradition of Possessed and Exodus in its music. ′′ After the Battle ′′ leaves nothing to be desired to these mentioned bands and if you, headbanger of the former Venom / Bathory / Possessed Trinity worshippers or even the youngest fans who cultivate the eightentist metal, this is absolutely indispensable in your collection!

    This exclusive version of Brazil brings a slipcase with a varnished finish, plus an extra 24 × 36 printed front and back, with photos from the season!
    A limited release in 300 units - only for die hards!!
    ** This is an exlusive release for Brazil only – International orders, ask the band directly!**

about

"State of Insanity" off of the album "After The Battle"

lyrics

INFECTIOUS SPREADING DISEASE BURNS YOU FROM INSIDE
TORTURED SOUL FALLS VICTIM INTO UNCURABLE LIES
THERE'S NO HOPE FOR SURVIVAL
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THE TRUTH
NOW YOU KNOW YOUR TIME IS COMING
TO MAKE YOUR CHOICE OR DIE

IS THIS REALITY OR IS THIS JUST A DREAM
THE ONLY HAPPINESS YOU FIND
IS TO HEAR YOUR VICTIMS SCREAM
YOUR HEART IS FILLED WITH PAIN
FOR EVERY DROP OF BLOOD THEY LOSE
QUICKLY BECOMES YOUR GAIN

THE FUTURE HOLDS THE KEYS OF LIFE
BUT WHAT'S BEHIND THE DOOR
MAKE YOUR CHOICE, LIVE OR DIE
OR BE CONDEMNED FOREVER MORE
IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GOTTA BE
THEN TAKE YOUR LIFE AND END IT ALL
NOW YOUR FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE
BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO HEAR YOUR CALL

AWAKE FROM SLEEP CONFUSED AND COLD
AFRAID TO FACE THE LIGHT
BUT NOT AFRAID TO FACE THE TRUTH
THE BLOOD STAINS ON YOUR HANDS
AND THE BLADE ON WHICH YOU LAY
YOUR READY TO FACE THE WORLD AND TO KILL ANOTHER DAY

NOW YOU KNOW THAT THIS IS RIGHT
TO STAY OUT OF THE HOLY LIGHT
THE DARKNESS GROWS FROM DEEP INSIDE
YOU KNOW JUST WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO
THE ONLY HAPPINESS THAT IS LEFT
IS TO TAKE YOUR LAST AND ONLY BREATH
HE'S WAITING FOR YOU DOWN BELOW
SO SLIT YOUR THROAT, LET THE BLOOD FLOW

WAKE UP NOW THIS IS THE DREAM THAT HAUNTS YOU EVERY DAY AND NIGHT
STRAPPED IN A BED THE DOCTORS OVERLOOK YOU AND THEY LAUGH
THE DOCTORS SAY THERE'S NO HOPE FOREVER IS HOW YOU'LL BE
DEMENTED MIND CONDEMNED TO HELL... IN A STATE OF INSANITY
