Big Bomb

Big Bomb mp3

I am death, destroyer of worlds
And I'm coming to your town
With the power of a sun in my hands
I'm gonna bring you down


It's a lovely day to be playing with a big bomb
Life's a blast when you're playing with a big bomb


You can't run, and you can't hide
You haven't got a prayer
Lay down and bow to me and I might just
decide to spare your lair
All the gods will kneel before Z
Now that I've got the power
Join my cult or join my harem
Or your soul I will soon devour


It's a lovely day to be playing with a big bomb
You laugh all day when you're playing with a big bomb
You stay on your toes when you're playing with a big bomb
A mushroom cloud arose when I was playing with a big bomb


Hail to the Z man!
I'll kill you all!


I am death, destroyer of worlds
And I'm coming to your town
You'll see a flash, then you'll be ash
You won't even hear a sound


It's a lovely day to be playing with a big bomb
You laugh all day when you're playing with a big bomb
You stay on your toes when you're playing with a big bomb
A mushroom cloud arose when I was playing with a big bomb

This is more or less what Jim originally had in mind when we wrote 'Do The Creep' back in 2006. Since that song ended up so far from its point of origin, Jim took another stab and it and this is the result. I made up a demo in early 2010 but it was pretty clear that only Chris Nail of Exhorder would be worthy to perform the drums!

The drum session was interesting, with Chris playing it on a fantastically rare, expensive, unbelievably heavy and great sounding SOLID CARBON STEEL drum kit. We took those parts and complemented them with a rhythm track & fantastic solo by COG-Force Reserve member Chris Lenox (Oak Grove custome guitar through a tube Fender Deluxe), and a great rhythm guitar track played by Roland Paris (Ibanez through a solid state Crate). Best of both worlds!
