Machine Head - Locust - NEW SINGLE (1080p) + LYRICS

LYRICS
Sweet caress
Grazes my skin
It's loveless
These hooks sink in
Behind an angel's disguise
An insect preys
Mandibles cut like a knife
A reckoning

Forming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Descending down

Down they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust

Surrender
These veins are bled
Devoured
Nothing sacred
Strings pull the marionettes
See how they dance
Upon the winds that beget
Our pestilence

Forming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound
Descending down

Down they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust

Bleeding from my eyes
This plague is sent to erase us
Bleeding from inside
These vermin can't infiltrate us

Faith appears and holds a candle
Hark the angels sing

Forming clouds
Their shadow shrouds
Louder the tattered wings they sound

Tear the veil
The lies derail
Purity ever will prevail

Trumpets sound
The shattered crown
Halos of truth now they surround
The charade comes down

Down they come
The swarm of locusts
Skies above
Converge to choke us
Feast of souls
Consume the harvest
Young and old
Suffer unto the locust

Finally a machine head video without the damn advertisements.

Can't believe this was released 3 years ago... I remember hearing it before it released on Sirius XM in the summer like it was yesterday

[nreese]

these guys write some of the most intricate lyrics in all of metal

[Wrathchild]

Everything about this song is fucking epic: the lyrics, the riffs, the intro and best of all the solo :D best Machine Head song ever \m/ \m/

[Sleyt]

Love the guitar tone, it's so...metal! \m/

One of the best tracks off Unto The Locust XD \m/

[KattAD]

the intro reminds me of the cure, something from disintegration.

[Psycholaw]

This very well may be my new favorite Machine Head song! : )

[kainecollins]

Beast ass song!!! 2 heavy ass break downs and nasty ass vocals. Proof that metal don't have to be fast to be heavy as fuck!!!! Love this song.

Dave's drumming is brutal in this song! (not surprising)
