Phlebotomized - Destined to Be Killed

Copied!

Irreversible contamination by impalpable
Manipulation
Life as we know it will cease to exist

Trapped in a network beginning to deteriorate
Build on childish idealism
A social experiment doomed to failure in which every choice, opinion, species are not equal

The strong and capable will rise
Is what the network want us to believe
A duty to lead, offering:
Power, a future, gifts surpassing others

The tipping point is, howеver:
We are rеsponsible for our own path

We all are and therefore victory feels empty
When it is attained by abused idealism
Incinerate by deceit
A claim to the throne in exchange for thy soul
One part doomed to failure

The strong and capable will rise
Is what the network want us to believe
A duty to lead, offering: power, a future
Gifts surpassing others
Destined… Destined to be killed…
Destined… Destined to be killed…
One part… Destined… Destined to be killed…
One part… Destined to be killed…

Biography

edit bio

Phlebotomized is among the oldest Death Metal bands from Holland and one of the first using violin and synthesizers in extreme metal. Their typical “Death Metal with a twist” caused a stir in the booming Dutch metal scene back in the early 90’s.
Formed in 1989, Phlebotomized started out as a Grindcore/Death Metal band, inspired by acts like Morbid Angel, Nocturnus and Paradise Lost. Later on, the band began to use keyboard and violin arrangements, resulting in their unique sound. Their “Devoted to God” demo (1992) was recognized as a classic one.

In 1994 Phlebotomized released their seminal “Immense Intense Suspense” album which offered an intelligent blend of atmosphere and brutality. It took the Death Metal scene by storm, giving both the band and the album a legendary Cult status worldwide. The band played numerous shows but disbanded shortly after the release of their second full-length album “Skycontact” in 1997. Then, after a hibernation of 16 years, Phlebotomized regrouped in 2013 upon the re-release of their classic albums. The band did some live-shows and started thinking of forging a new album. After some changes in line-up, their comeback album “Deformation of Humanity” was recorded in 2018.
This album received raving reviews and Phlebotomized played several (international) shows and festivals in 2019.
