Demanufacture Desensitized by the values of life Maligned and despaired by government lies Revenge is so strong I taste it on my tongue You gun will be Your angel of mercy Dislocated by the eyes of disdain Abused beyond recognition I can't cope with The madness abounding Blasts in my head Of gunfire resounding Firing relentless Killing the senses I've got no more goddamn regrets I've got no more goddamn respect I am the thorn In your eye Am the thorn In your eye (x2) Repeat second verse I've got no more goddamn regrets I've got no more goddamn respect (x3) Self Bias Resistor Hey you! Wake up! Open your swollen eyes Erosion invades your mind A cancer that grows over time Hey you! Rise up! Rise to fight, eliminate Burn your fuse to detonate The human machines of hate Chorus: All these years they've tried to break you To your knees Anger scours right through your veins Now it's time to put an end To all of the lies Now it's time to take control Of your life Wake up! Rise up! Open minds will dominate Burn your fuse to detonate The human machines of hate Repeat chorus Hypocrisy You can't beleive Machines of hate A disease that infiltrates Persist for resistance Resist their insolence You are a dissident Burn away conformity (x2) Repeat chorus They have tried to break you They have tried to break you (x2) Zero Signal So withdrawn and feeling numb Watching life come all undone Growing fear, a human grace A drowning mind in a dark embrace My life A disarray And I Fade away I am down on my knees Praying beyond belief The silence deafens my ears And welds the shackles Onto my fears Lost All faith Lost All trust Lost All faith Lost All trust So withdrawn and feeling numb Watching life come all undone My life A disarray And I Fade away I am down on my knees Praying beyond belief The silence deafens my ears And welds the shackles Onto my fears I have lost all faith I have lost all trust A sordid mesh turning to dust A sordid mesh turning to dust I am lost I am so numb I am so numb... Replica There is no love I am a duplication Innocently I was conceived So violently There was no love There was no love for me There was only hatred I am rape I am hate I am rape I am hate Every day I feel anonymous hate Forever in the shadow of disgrace I am rape I am hate I am rape I am hate Filled with pain A bruised and darkened soul Spare me from the Life that's full of misery I don't want to live that way I don't want to live that way There is no love Every day I feel anonymous hate Forever in the shadow of disgrace I am rape I am hate I am rape I am hate Filled with pain A bruised and darkened soul Spare me from the Life that's full of misery I am so Filled with pain A bruised and darkened soul Spare me from the Life that's full of misery I don't want to live that way I don't want to live that way... I am so Filled with pain A bruised and darkened soul Spare me from the Life that's full of misery Spare me from the Life that's full of pain Spare me from the Life that's full of pain I don't want to live that way I don't want to live that way... New Breed We are the new breed We are the future We are the new breed We are the future We are immune to life itself Cold rules are reality We are immune to life itself Cold rules are reality Born, bred, beaten Born, bred, beaten We have control of destiny We have control of what's to be We have control of destiny We have control of what's to be Born, bred, beaten Born, bred, beaten (x2) Chorus: New breed, new breed New breed, new breed We are immune to life itself Cold rules are reality We have control of destiny We have control of what's to be Born, bred, beaten Born, bred, beaten (x2) Repeat chorus New breed We are the new breed New breed We are the future New breed We are the new breed New breed We are the future New breed New breed New breed (x3) Body Hammer I clench my teeth and realize My world is so near its demise A dying sun in a poisonous sky Stinging my eyes Burning with contempt and conflict As of now I am a tool Of severe impact I clench my fist and visualize The blood that is spilled is our own I open wide my bloodshot eyes Count the dead A result of dysfunction Chorus: As of now I am a tool Of severe impact Hammer down Cause and effect And create a new world Pound, drive, swing, strike Break down, smash down Pund and drive, swing and strike Break it down I am a tool Repeat chorus (x2) I am a tool... I am a tool to break down Break it down and smash it all away Flashpoint I lied Right to your face And I'll burn Eternally in flames In flames... Inmstinct Has failed me now Enslaved By my deceit Lies stink in like gasoline Saturates my body One last spark of dishonesty And that will be the death of me Damned In flames Damned In flames (x2) Lies engulf me Lies they burn me Lies they purge me Lies they free me Lies stink in like gasoline Saturates my body One last spark of dishonesty And that will be the death of me Damned In flames Damned In flames (x2) H-K (Hunter-Killer) The conscious man is dead And I buried him Beneath this scarred tissue Armored skeleton The machine is now alive Besensitized with open eyes Powered by an angry mind And is refueled by those I despise I've become what they detest A delinquent survivalist Without fear and no regret They fucking say I am a criminal I am a criminal I am a criminal I am a criminal I must steal To survive I must kill To moralize Leaving people victimized Fuels my angst inside I'm your judge And your jury You don't get An attorney With my verdict Of guilty An execution in fury The machine is now alive To wreak havoc in your lives There's no use to hold me back I am ready to attack repeat second verse I am a criminal I am a criminal I am a criminal I am a criminal... Pisschrist Where are you now? When we are blind Abandoned faith You left behind Were you betrayed? Or did you lie? Our common fate Our common demise Where is the son? To light the way Along the path Of our dismay Look to the sky On judgement day A human god That was man-made So we lie So we lie So we lie So we lie And so we rise Just to fall down In reality You're never found I'm reaching out With sealed eyes I grab for light Visions decried Repeat fourth verse So we lie So we lie So we lie So we lie Face down, arms out Nailed to the cross of doubt Blood runs like rain Drowning for this world in vain Crown of black thorns Human skin, ripped and torn Crown of black thorns Human skin, ripped and torn Where is you saviour now? Where is you saviour now? Where is you saviour now? Where is you saviour now?... A Therapy for Pain I welcome death with open arms Her soft breath and simple charm Wandering through memories Takes my hand for me to see Tried so hard Tried so hard Echoes of innocence Are my thoughts into dissident Tried so hard Tried so hard Tried so hard Tried so hard When we finally reach the end She lets go of my hand Waking into realms of light There will be no death tonight Tried so hard Tried so hard Tried so hard Tried so hard...

The sound has changed a bit, though. It's now all less death metal, and a bit 'cleaner', but still very brutal. I think it's better than their first cd. The songs sound better and are more varied. Shame only that Burton's grunt is also a bit less 'death metal' now. But overall it's a great continuation of Fear Factory's own typical Industrial type of metal. Rating: 8.5 out of 10
