BAND NAME: Enviro-Metal Garbage
GENRE: Death Metal/Grindcore, Death/Unblack/Industrial
STATUS: Active
LOCATION: Portugal
The project plays a somewhat unusual style I'm struggling to describe. It's based mostly in a lo-fi kind of death/grind. It's been more or less the same style throughout, but as the project has gone on, it's added more black metal influence with some industrial flair.

1) Closed Minded
2:04, instrumental, but the following is written on Bandcamp:
Ouvi no Céu um forte barulho de uma grande multidão que aclamava:
“Aleluia!
A salvação, a glória
E o poder pertencem
Ao nosso Deus
Porque os seus julgamentos
São verdadeiros e justos
Sim! Deus julgou
A grande Prostituta
Que corrompeu a Terra
Com a sua prostituição
E vingou nela o sangue
Dos seus servos”
A multidão continuou o canto:
“Aleluia!”
2) Fail to Prevail
2:21, lyrics:
Open your wings and fly
Crush the devil's seed
You don't need them!
They will betray you!
Open your eyes
Here to stay
Against them
I failed
But you won't
3) Fermentation
3:46, lyrics:
I saw
A black sheep
Eating grass
And I saw
White sheep
Eating each other
Fermentation
They are rotting!
I turned my face away
But the smell of death was pungent
I won't stay
I won't be like them!
I, the black old sheep
Can't face you
Black I am
But not for long
4) Plants for Fuel
3:11, lyrics:
Planta a vida
Na despedida
Passam os dias
Crescem melhor
Sem ninguém por perto

1) To Announce God
1:40, lyrics:
Fragile bodies
Ignorant minds
Trying to conceive a lie
But neither by force nor by thought
Can they presume so high
We talk what we heard and learn from the Lord
But they talk only what fits their skinny clothes
And by force means hypocrisy and social cruelty
Against those who as doves carry the message of God
To upfit this newborn society from the infamous heritance of the snakes
2) Fight No Matter What
3:55, lyrics:
Fight no matter what
Falling creatures from the sky
Hoping the least not to die
The impact crush them against the ground
Their brains squeeze between the rocks
Soaking the well-known terrain
Land of no one
Pause and bemol
Land of pain
Land of the ones who died
In the last war against sin
Grinding teeth
Biting tongues
Squeezing hands
3) Martyr
3:23, lyrics:
Honoured saints are all beaten to death in the harvest of pain
Harvesting the richest of the grain
Never-ending wearing baptism clothes
Weary as the mocking
4) Dictator's Smile
3:12, lyrics:
Matter and substance will fall
Contradictions and blame
The purpose of life
Has been dishonoured
Supreme need for forgiveness
Seeking redemption on things, flesh and bone
Hailing the gods of gruesome worship
Beating the dead horse
Blaming the one that you need
Source of all treasures

2) Beware
4:27, lyrics:
The serpent asked Eve:
Do you want to be like God?
I want it too
But not here!
In the salvation that awaits me
I will behold the face of the Most High
But here on Earth I will not choose sin
Which is the reward of the wicked
Because I hope for something bigger
And I won't be fooled
By the enemy's traps
For the Lord is with me
The Lord is with me
3) Instrumental (bonus track)
3:16, instrumental
4) Chromossoma
3:17, lyrics:
Inside of you there is a hidden place
You don't know
Hail the One who created you
And can lead you there
Chromossoma
A seed inside you
Welcome your soul
God's will perpetuated
Chromossoma
5) Estável
4:26, lyrics:
Fiz voto de estabilidade em Cristo rocha firme
Não olharei à multidão que me cerca como vento
Pois construi sobre a rocha
E não hei de calar o segredo que transpiro
Pois Cristo fala mesmo quando não se ouve voz
E a multidão não ouve a sua própria respiração
A estabilidade de uma rocha está profundamente enraizada
É como uma montanha
A firmeza do mar é a sua força
E o seu ímpeto o seu pensamento
Assim quero mergulhar em Cristo
E beber da água da vida
Para que não me falte a luz sólida da verdade
Enquanto vivo hei de querer-te ó meu Deus
E a morte será a porta do teu reino
6) Old Ways
2:07, lyrics:
This is the way of old
Crippled and bad
Ugly to the bone
Old ways have passed
Behold everything made new
The old man has died
Behold Christ has risen
The gospel of Jesus Christ
Will save us
7) The Mountain
3:58, lyrics:
The mountain is hard to climb
Then look to our Lord up high
He carried the cross for you
You just need to follow Him
No matter how much you fall
Or how deep you are
Just look to his eyes
Embracing his word
The golden mountain of Christ
Is rising inside my soul
I'm trying to understand
But other is holding me back
I'm staring at the peak
Where the Lord is shining
And his glory destroys all darkness
8) Veronica's Cloth
4:00, lyrics:
We man of courage
Like Jesus Christ
Carrying the cross and suffering
What will we do?
What shall we say?
If no one shows up to comfort us
At the height of life
Someone wiped his face
With the care of a woman in love
And we too will not be left abandoned
But we have to value what we receive
A smile
A look
A word
9) We the Winners
3:23, lyrics:
Fight back
You're under control
Lifeless
Facing the cold
Nevertheless
You're on
Fighting towards
The winners
Never to forget
Never to regret!
Hopeless
You start to run
Believing
There is more to gain
Finding
Power inside
When no one cares
You make it yours
Victory!
They started to attack you
They want to deceive you
Making you feel the pleasure of defeat
Laying in your bed when you want to pray
Give it all to Christ and send them back away
Mock their faces
Smash their heads
Pray and forget the flesh
Give it all to Christ!
10) O Reino é Nosso (bonus track)
4:06, lyrics:
O reino é nosso
O reino é nosso
E não há que temer
As chamas estendem-se sobre o universo
Procurando quem o receba
Mas as margens do rio são demasiado estreitas
Deixa-o transbordar deixa-o transbordar
As culpas entendem a tua dor
Quando te achas santo
Mas a verdade não está na hipocrisia
Tudo grita de alegria
Tudo grita a loucura
Deixa-te transbordar
Deixa-te transbordar
Entre as molduras das tristezas que guardas
As paredes do teu quarto já não bastam
Revestidas de suores e lágrimas
Diz o ditado: mais vale tarde que nunca
Mas fez-se tarde e não te levantas
O reino é nosso
O reino é nosso
E não há que temer
11) Per Signum Crucis
4:04, lyrics:
By the sign of the cross we defeat our enemies
By the sign of the cross we create new order
Angels and humans gather around the mighty Lord
Who suffered death to cleanse his breed
Per signum crucis
By the sign of the cross we give thanks to the Lord for its Spirit
By the sign of the cross we gather as one in Christ
To know pain is not to feel it
But to know our sin is to fight against it
By the saving sign of Christ
The mighty cross!
