NAPALM DEATH - 07 - WHAT MAN CAN DO (DEMO)

Here is the seventh track of the From Enslavement to Obliteration demo by the legendary UK based grindcore band Napalm Death. The song is called What Man Can Do. This demos was released in 1986, a year before the bands debut album Scum would be released. The band would go on to use this demos title for their second album in 1988. Napalm Death started in 1081 as a hardcore punk band, and, through a long series of demos between 1982 and 1987, the bands music would get heavier and more extreme over time until it warped into the mix of death metal and hardcore punk that we now know as grindcore. Scum is considered by many to be the first grindcore release, though others debate that it was Horrified by Repulsion. That was recorded before Scum and released as an album after it.

Lyrics:

Take it out on others - that's what they do
See what makes it work - that's what they do
Feel my hatred surge - that's what they see
AVENGE THEM

What Man can do - destroy, destroy
What Man can do - destroy, destroy
Destroy, destroy, destroy,
destroy, destroy virtually anything.

Pointless pleasure - my point in hate.
No point to a slow genocide.
What Man can do? Virtually anything.
What Man does is destroy virtually anything.

What Man can do - destroy, destroy
What Man can do - destroy, destroy
Destroy, destroy, destroy,
destroy, destroy virtually anything...
