| 1. The Black
Unknown Substance
A putrid Cloud -
Choking all within Results of Progress,
A noxious Waste -
Floating in the Air
Living free?
Chemically
So now our World is fading into slowly burning out Prime Wealth?
Toxic Health
Advancing towards extinction is the way it's turning out Fou |

Пожалуй, это одно из самых впечатляющих творений в тяжёлом направлении музыки, шедевр наравне с "Number of the Beast" от Iron Maiden. Талант маэстро Диджорджо здесь предстает перед нами во всей красе. Альбом идеально сбалансирован, проходных песен нет, разве что можно выделить бесподобный хит "Last Abide", поражающий сметающей всё на своём пути энергетикой. Тембр вокала подобран уникально точно, это не натужные подростковые вопли Петроцы из Kreator, не надрывные крики Slayer, а именно вокал, пусть и в рамках жанра, пусть и на грани визга, но гармоничный и интеллигентный. Тембр гитары также подобран идеально, нет ни грязного жужжания, ни рёва, а есть чистый красивый звук, вкупе с другими инструментами порой напоминающий звук симфонического оркестра. Ну и, конечно же, солирует бас-гитара лучшего басиста в мира Стива Диджорждо. В общем, альбом, который должен быть в коллекции любого культурного человека. |

Sadus – это, конечно же, марка качества в трэш-метале. Язык не поворачивается назвать их классический альбом «Swallowed in Black», которые многие поклонники считают ключевым в дискографии, халтурой. Тяжелый (но в сравнении с дебютом уже недостаточно экстремальный) трэш, заглядывающийся на дэт-метальные территории, техничный выделенный бас и дерганная, торопливая ритм-секция – признаки возросшего мастерства и возмужания коллектива. И при этом материалу во всем немного не хватает: в скорости – безоглядной оголтелости первых проб пера, в мастерстве владения инструментами – эстетской вальяжности еще не родившихся альбомов 90-х. Особенно же недостает тех потрясающих визгов, что украшали ультра-скоростной «Chemical Exposure». Как-то уж слишком мрачно и серьезно смотрится их тяжеленный забойный трэш-метал, при том, что Sadus никогда не баловали слушателя ни проникновенными мелодиями, ни головокружительными скачками с ритма на ритм. До такой степени, что два бонус-трэка, позаимствованные с демо-пленки «Death to Posers» 1986 года, кажутся глотком свежего воздуха. Если же возвращаться к материалу оригинального диска, то меня не покидало ощущение, что снизь коллектив градус угрюмости, отступись слегка от бескомпромиссного трэша a-la Slayer meets Death, позволив себе больше тех отнюдь не скучных соло, что изредка мелькают, сделай он лишнюю паузу для «лирики» - работа воспринималась бы куда легче. А без этого несомненно элитарный продукт от ветеранов американского независимого трэша остается лакомством для любителей музыки позлее и поугловатей, которые плюнут на совершенно необязательную здесь техничность и просто будут наслаждаться зубодробительной риффовкой.

Do you care?
Is Cleanness where
you live going against your common believe
Too much slime, insufficient time?
In a suffocated future
will you find the time to breathe
Jammed in one place
Blind in haste
Progress can't wait
A life in waste
Tending towards - Technology
Reverse of: life's biology
Chemical comatose
Radiation overdose
Burning, melting flesh
Leaking slime of dissolving waste
Overflowing blackness of death
Creation is being torn down by abuse
Infringement of the substance and our use
Elements decomposing, dilution is too slow
Every contribution, to the evolution
Its bad gets worse; deathly course.
Swallowed in Black
Faced with reality?
Search your memory
Nothing dead ever comes back
The Black
2. Man Infestation
Time... is wasting
Time... is passing
The world... is going straight down the tubes, oh well
What man will make of it... time will tell
Time
Watching all that's wasting in this world
In time there's no escaping what's to tell
The population is feeding, soon to fall
There's got to be a better way, time will tell
Quality receding
Contaminants increasing
Consequently death
The splendor and the radiance
The brightness and the brilliance
Sheer luster of life is gone
The foul stench of stag
Will devour the human race
Until every bit of life is gone
Poverty, extremity, impurity, insolvency
The crumble, decline, destruction, wears on
There's got to be a better way
Blacken the sky, nature has died
Wastefulness of mankind
Thoughts were impure, time must endure
We must stop before it's too late
Impurities will crush, till all life is lost
Destruction of the ozone layer
What has been said, what's left to say
There's got to be a better way
Putrefaction, uncleanness of man
The man infestation, infected world span
Filthy impurities, blue sky turn to gray
Crippled efficiency, the black eats away
Putrefaction, uncleanness of man
The man infestation, infected world span
The quagmire and vermin, as bad goes to worse
The drab wilt of mankind engulfing the earth
Watching all that's wasting in this world
In time there's no escaping what's to tell
The population is feeding, soon to fall
There's got to be a better way, time will tell
Quality receding
Contaminants increasing
Consequently death
3. Last Abide
Flash of light
Before your eyes
All is deceased
Victimized
By undecided crimes
Maturing fate
Wasting life, surpassing time
Eradicate
Erupt, toxic clouds exterminate
Fusion flow
Eats the brain
Melds decay
Lethal dose
Feeds disease
Depopulates
Rotting blood, turning black
A violent, noxious death
Winds of death
Engulf the sphere
That no longer lives
Entropy
Now takes its course
Until the end
A world gone black, through toxic skies
Lay to waste
Last abide
Upon earth
Takes its place
4. The Wake
Living silence, hidden deep
Clouded vision, nothing seen
Arise above normality
Open your eyes so I can see
Can't you hear the scream in me?
I'm dying for the chance to be
No chance for reality
To live and reign inside of me
Screams of pain
Wake of death
Relentless reign
A precedent
The wake of severity is pushing through
A kick in the face is overdue
Knowing what you believe is right
Blind to everything in sight
Living terror
From within
The wake of severity will now
Begin
I had a vision of non-existence
To pass away, ceased to exist
Depart this life, become no more
Become extinct just like before No
The wake you can't evade
Time's path is laid
Drowning in our fate
A droplet of existence
I a wave of ignorance
On the path of resistance
Only to prove our persistence
The wake of severity is pushing through
A kick in the face is overdue
Screams of pain
Wake of death
5. In Your Face
You say you got a problem
I say you want to die
Confusion in your mind
Terror solidified
Violence indisplaced
Fear in its place
Tempest, yet blind in haste
All right, I'm in your face
Hostilities come to war
Outbreak, a rush discharged
Lash out your fuse is lit
Go off, inflict the sick
Violence indisplaced
Fear in its place
Tempest, yet blind in haste
All right, I'm in your face
Implode to the head
Convulsive force of red
Adrenaline rushing blast
Inflamed fury's past
Vindication,
justification is done
6. Good Rid'nz
Struck down in a flash of pain
Killed swiftly in its own domain
Struggling for what is left
Brutal shock, dismemberment
Ineffective attempts to flee
Body stuck to an instant grave
Makes no difference left to be
Can't you see the life in me is draining away?
Destiny calls
Don't fall
Impending death
Struggling to be
Now freed
Life passed on
A million times struck down
Body becomes fused to the ground
Mangled body
Flattened corpse
Stench of rot
Hammered carnage
Crusting thing
Maggots breed
Degenerate
Mortified
Disintegrate
Eroding bone
Melts to stone
Collapse to dust
Good riddance
Struck down in a flash of pain
Killed swiftly in its own domain
Struggling for what is left
Brutal shock, dismemberment
Ineffective attempts to flee
Body stuck to an instant grave
Makes no difference left to be
Can't you see the life in me is draining away?
Good riddance
7. False Incarnation
Contemplating death, untimely near
It's not your death developing your fear
Deteriorating state, hope is lost
Your greed for life is beyond the cost
Hoping for advancement, an invention, a cure
Because of your disease your intentions are unpure
Corrupted by moral values
Spoiled by common wealth
In your race for fortune
You forgot to regard your health
Self pity; shame to blame.
Existence transferred to an alternate frame
Cellular osmosis, frozen to paralysis
Suspending the result of the ultimate nemesis
Essence drained, exchanged for synthetics
Drastic measures to alter genetics
No reincarnation
Eternal hibernation
False incarnation
Opaque destination
Catatonic pleasure, anti-fluids numb the pain
Robbing yourself of death, what did you expect to gain?
Frozen fate, all thoughts cease
Resisting the afterlife for nothing at all
Truth distorted, path into darkness
Cannot see what caused your fall
Lying dormant, your seed of faith
Has grown into a nasty vine
Final chapter in the book of life
Forever darkness stops the time
Delaying natural death, for a fear of what's beyond
Afraid to take that final step, to the place where you belong
What you believed before
Do you anymore?
Or do you want to see
Immortality?
Looking out from the inside
To a place you cannot
Frozen in dark solitude
Yearning to be free
No one has awakened you
A false destiny
No reincarnation
Eternal hibernation
False incarnation
Opaque destination
False incarnation
8. Images
Oppressed by darkness in the mind, unleashed action
Illusions forming to a substance, manifestation
Confused beyond reality, false-fact-fusion
Engulfed chaotic interlude, obscure vision
When the sick mind is left to rule...
Confusion grows, thoughts intertwine
Memory is a blur in a scenario of time
Details are exposed, but remain ignored
Things that are real, are found in a dream
The way in which to see things is not what it seems
Looking for answers, in a mirror that is blank
Images overlap
Reflections deviate
Images overlap
Reflections deviate
Vengeance, sickness claims its spite, twisted memory
Unbalance of fantasy and reality, ruptured harmony
Fiction animated falsely, materialized
There's no reason for deception, there's no lie
When the sick mind is left to rule...
Vast capacity of imagination
Within focus of concentration
Abstract input disrupting aim
Course of option appears the same
A rapid static flashing glance
Only a sudden random chance
When reasons defy reality
Insight has no authority
Visions that reality hid
Victimized by the Id
That's the reflections I despise
Or is it true the mirror lies?
The truth is clouded from my sight
Radiating heat not light
Mirages forming identity
Thoughts becoming entity
Images overlap
Reflections deviate
Images overlap
Reflections deviate
9. Powers Of Hate
Powers of hate
Are directing your thoughts
And lead me to believe
In what you are not
Anger drives you
To inflict others' pain
Now feel the rage
Consuming your brain
Committing revenge now regulates
Your unguided ways to manipulate
Logic dies with bitter frustration
Anxiety feeds your slow damnation
How can this be right?
Your way of looking through me
Seeing beyond your lies
It's just your way to use me
All anger that you feel
Its driving force surrounding you
Forget your words of hate
The power that's confounding you
Reason to not forgive
Breaking down your tolerance
Can't you tell it's wrong
Not believing in the consequence
Into the recesses of your mind
Mysterious shadows unidentified
Shrouded by fears of the darkest kind
And there your being lies classified
This reign of hatred and despise
This weapon of spite caused you to lie
What is kept secret behind your eyes
Is now my fear of the truth denied
10. Arise
Feasting on rancidness
Not seeing through the self-accusing lies
Are hordes of wormly cowards
Who hesitate and fail to bring their dreams to life
Oppression
Quickening
Aspirations
Left unseen
Lost in occupations
Becoming socially secured
Life's manipulation
Age endures
Accepting circumstances
Resentment uncontained
Quality of existence
Capitalistic gains
Can't you see
Your destiny?
Living free
Doing what you feel and think is real
Or do you just fail to see?
BLIND
Can't see through your own mind
Cast yourself to live this lie
Blackening out natural dignity
Forcing in abnormal functioning
Losing desire your will to leave
This life you built so easily
It's time...
to live
Rise
Ascend from below to blaze a trail through life
Follow your lead and succeed your destiny
Arise
Alive
Strive to live and live to please your mind
11. Oracle Of Obmission
Mindless fools listen
To a brainwashing, false doctrine
Live to obey
As they tune into the oracle each day
Embedded in the brain of the potentially insane
Susceptible to be deceived easily
The prophet for the blind is possession if the mind
A manipulation of the public's domination
I'm the influence of suggestion
Your life is my obsession
I'm the voice of the media
The power of propaganda
I've given to you my system
Of which you'll become a victim
A system of conformity
Forfeit of your liberty
So careless, you are, of your destiny
So confused, of what, has come to be
Your life, your worth, you've given up to me
Believing, my words, I've become your deity
A hollow shell of what you used to be
Your life-form drained of mentality
Thoughts are ruled by complexity
As you're numbed, and sink into dormancy
Categorized in societies dominion
As a glitch of that non-exception
Deceived by the generalized opinion
A meaningless specter
a lifeless zombie
your ice is thin
Trust in false gods, only to be deceived again
Your fate is as shallow as the grave you rot in
Mindless fools listen
Live to obey
A life of submission, to the oracle of obmission
A life of submission, to the oracle of obmission
A life of submission, to the oracle of obmission
