Napalm Death - 11 - Private Death (Demo)

Here is the eleventh track of the From Enslavement to Obliteration demo by the legendary UK based grindcore band Napalm Death. The song is called Private Death. 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:

On your own again, trapped alive in your grave.
You're going to die wasted, no way to be saved.

Private death, private death,
private death, dead again.
Private death, private death,
Private death, you're fucking dead.

No point in fighting, your life's already lost.
Try to escape but you're nailed to the cross.

Private death, private death,
private death, dead again.
Private death, private death,
Private death, you're fucking dead.
