The band's third and final album contains only four members (two new), and after its release, the band was dropped out from Earache Records for lack of sales. It's not abnormal, considering that they were never that much original or convincing to stand against Evile, Warbringer and Municipal Waste. Some of the cuts feature Drop G#-tuned seven-string guitars, but for the rest, the band's Hardcore/Thrash Metal style remains unchanged, excluding a final cover of Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name", just to prove that the bandmembers aren't "metal purists".

The fuck down voted this

Yeah not a bad band

holy wars rip off

Since the dawn of time we've been
At their mercy falling to every plague
Vicious vermin with the stench of rot
They have thrived on human waste
Infection spreading disease baring
They're lurking in our foundation
The epidemic takes control
And nearly destroys us all
No protection from infection
No way to escape
The curse of skaven has followed humans
To anywhere they live
Spread the disgust as they multiply
Our world belongs to them
Resilient creatures with demon-like features
Thriving and feeding as we sleep
Imperialistic animal instincts
Engulfing the world in flames

Bare the plague of vermin rage
Shepherds of rot come to claim
Rats are storming disaster forming
Shepherds of rot rise again
Anthropomorphic clan of pestilence
A rabid chaotic race
Weaponizing a new disease as they
Please the great lord of wrath
With nails and teeth and flesh and bone
All enemy will be overthrown
There's no point to reason
With malevolent gods
They just do as they're told
Until everything's gone
Bare the plague of the vermin rage
Shepherds of rot come to claim
Rats are storming disaster forming
Shepherds of rot rise again
Spilling from out of the sewage
The wrath of a new age
Upon us as dark descends
Crumbling the former foundation
Of civilization is left in disarray
Spilling from out of the sewage
The wrath of a new age
Upon us as dark descends
Crumbling the former foundation
Of civilization as left in disarray

I love this song too, btw!! -Mike m/ "No time to hold.. your junk!" m/

Probably my favorite track on the album!

That solo is wayyy OTT effin' sweet!! m/

What do you expect it's bonded by blood ><

their worst album :S

Their first album was easily their best imo, but the vocals got better as time went on. Heavier sounding here.

OMG. What a very uninspired song...
