about

This is a Statement Cover. For those of you who don't know Statement: Rat (the man behind this vegan edge metal one-man project) is the true originator of the vgnx kvlt. Being xvx since '83 (and militant about it), it must be assumed that he was the first man to ever speak out these combined terms "Vegan Straight Edge". With the legendary '90s Hardline EP "Prepare For Battle", he set new standards for vegan edge metal and paved the way for a whole new generation of xvx metal and hardcore kids. The song "Traces Of Blood" was originally released on the "Stones To Mark A Fire" Compilation, by Militant Records / Vegan Earth Order in 1995. I'll let the lyrics speak for themselves.

lyrics

Innocence of grasping for life
Superiority denies the living soul
Reign of terror the blood trickles
From your lips I declare war

On you for the barbaric acts
You indulge, killing innocence
I feel hatred towards you
Now I shall take your life

Tearing out your heart
Sense of justice comes over me
Revenge is just the start
I am now the killing machine
