Bucky One of the albums that started it all for me and I’m over the moon it’s finally available on vinyl. Stone cold classic, chocked full of catchy groove, infectious vocal melody and tone for days. No doubt a top influential album on my music taste in the 21st century. Favorite track: He Who Kills.

smiledozer Favoritre track?...FAVORITE TRACK?! Took me forever to decide...This is one of the more perfect stoner rock albums I've ever heard. Fond memories blasting this, riding around in a crappy car overfilled with stoned friends in high school. We always demanded to put on "Christian motorcycle rock group". Fireball Ministry makes fantastic albums and this is their best. Now on limited vinyl record? HYPE!!!! Can't wait to blast it again on a different media. Favorite track: Maidens of Venus.

King 04:49
If I was listening And knew I shouldn’t be Made all the threats again The pain is deafening The jury couldn’t win And put the verdict in Like many times before They closed the coffin door Leave it all if you had it before Turn it out if you wanted it more If it was all wrong the first time It’s the last time If I was born unbelieving Unbelieving He tried to be defined And all the children whined It killed the last of them The King would fall again
3.
The Sinner 03:29
Forgone, conclusion Wiping up the bitter end of emptiness Sold out, delusion Past the time draining my head And I’ve learned it And I believed it All of the things Wasted in line Never again And I’ve called on the father Spread disease among men And I cast out the sinner Stranger till the end After forgiveness Mastermind of all that’s insane Broken solution Tried so hard to cope with the pain And I’ve called on the father Spread disease among men And I cast out the sinner Savior till the end
4.
Summon evil to the masses Open season on the weak Call it out before it passes Shut it down before it speaks Rise, To the bottom Time, To be true Fall, When it’s floating Punish, Now it’s due Found it’s way to the surface After only came completely undone Fell below the resurgence Only to be crowned the master of none Simple minded, open-ended Honest envy, broke and mended
5.
Beyond The life-giving highway Reckless and innocent The open door to everyday Tried giving it up but it was already gone For the weight of the world, didn’t try too long Cry out The living fortress of pestilence Over and under Bow down for resistance Too many fools have made their fortune Broke drown the walls and found them crying If I waited too long To make right all that was wrong It was innocent, only innocent Begin Never casting aspersions Finding the solitude Bow down for aversion
6.
Flatline 03:54
Dead have been risen Never forgiven The kingdom of hatred Born understated Maybe I could find the one that wasn’t here before Beaten down under the rising sun Fell from grace before you had the chance to learn to run Tell the truth before your time is done Fathers before us Honored as pious The ashes of seven Raining down from heaven Fall in, Fallout Broken through Flatline, Mainline Torn in two Dead have been risen Never forgiven The kingdom of hatred Born understated
7.
A savior to some, a devil to many Walk the line between only all and any A slave to the soul of here and now Gave up on the myth of why and how I’ll be leaving in the morning I wouldn’t have said it if it wasn’t true It came from nowhere, without a warning The paths that crossed because of you Only the blind could see it coming The guessing game of what was said The crawl it slowly turned into running No way to know it was already dead
8.
He Who Kills 04:15
Open call to the fallen The game’s begun Gave into the calling For souls undone Left out in the open In the open Gave up on seeing eye to eye Four fires burning And the black wheel keeps turning Can’t change the truth until you lie Gave in to delusion The battles won Figured out the solution Only just begun Send back the sickness They all earned it Can’t fight the fallen They all burned it Just try forgetting What they told you Your life was only What they sold you Bought and sold you
9.
Rollin On 04:08
Ante up the one who’s deceiving Beside the one who’s believing Emptiness to all that’s raging Honest man, never aging Break down the walls of evil Step aside for all that is good Emptiness fills the chasm A call to arms for war’s orgasm If I belong Keep rollin’ on Ten miles too long Keep rollin’ on
10.
Choker 05:25
Across the sea, they came in three Gave up your last breath The time to lie, no one alive Gave up your last breath A time of fate, no give or take Gave up your last breath The sport is done, to kingdom come Gave away the cause of death It couldn’t last, into the past Gave up your last breath Their blood was clean, their worst was seen Gave up your last breath The fallen one, the only son Gave up your last breath The vault is sealed, their life concealed Gave away the cause of death If the call been made Never was the chosen one If the call been made Gave away the smoking gun
11.
Overblown state of mind Changes made for a lie seen as true Judged fairly for a crime Given up on a life spent with you Fortunes spent from behind Broken image of a mind Rusted, begging, towed the line Only witness to a life spent with you Now I’m giving up on lies worth believing And I’m giving up my mind, yeah Stolen years from a life not worth living And I’m running out of time Been called unforgiving Secrets passed on a line broken through And believed all the sinning Given up on a life spent with you Now I’m giving up on lies worth believing And I’m giving up my mind, yeah Stolen years from a life not worth living Well it happens all the time
