Mein Tiel
The funda behind the song is gruesomely interesting.
Does anyone remember the German sensational affair last year of some whacked out dude posting a message on the Net (or something similar) for a 18-35 year old he could kill and eat? And that some other whack job actually showed up? The story can be read up on at the BBC ... well this song is about that.
I was tripping on the song enough to look for translation of the lyrics. And trust me, it's gruesome! The verse talks about what it'd feel like to kill & eat a person and the pre-chorus bridge goes:
Denn du bist/ was du isst/ und ihr wisst/ was es ist ... which translates into ...
Because you are/ what you eat/ and you know/ what it is
The song itself is soul-crushing industrial metal. Repeated hearings have given me headaches! Cool!
