Intro​/​The Victim

from Demo by Poison Planet

  • Record/Vinyl

    Originally recorded in 2007, this demo was released on vinyl by Offside Records out of France in 2011. The art from the original demo was recreated and updated to correspond with the change in format.

    Offside Records went all out and printed the covers like mini-LPS with printing on the spine. The lyric and essay sheet is 7" x 14" and is double sided to pack in all of the info about the songs.

    The Demo songs include:
    Intro/The Victim
    Mind Racing
    Boycott Everything
    Menace
    Nothing Gets Done
    Bible Stories/Outro

    The line-up on this record was:
    9Volt - vocals
    Death Snake - guitar
    Little Soldier - drums
    Swamp Thing - bass

    The $8.00 price reflects the heavier/nicer packaging and the cost to import them from France.

about

The US government and multinational corporations are content with keeping us consuming goods and remaining aloof to what’s going on around us. As long as the American people are getting drunk, eating fast food, consuming goods, and fucking they are happy and we’re oblivious. We need to step away from that oblivion and realize that though there are powerful forces keeping us in place, we make our own choices in this life and we all too often happily accept the easy path that is presented to us and then play the victim when our easy choices lead us into disease, addiction, or misery. Its time to take ownership of our actions and accept that the powers that be are not the only ones to blame.

lyrics

The Victim
(Music: Deathsnake/Lyrics: 9 Volt)
We are all victims of the choices that we make (x4)

“I guess that makes it a victimless crime
because I only fucked over myself”
Well its time for you to own up
because what you did you did to yourself

So now its time - time to own up
Time to own up for what you’ve done
Take responsibility and turn it around
The damage you’ve done to yourself

We are all victims of the choices that we fucking make!

about

Poison Planet Chicago, Illinois

What separates punk from other genres of music is its visceral menacing sounds make it the perfect soundtrack for anger & protest. The direct result of this combination of elements is that it became a vehicle for socio-political ideas.

PxP firmly embrace that vehicle in the hope of advocating the idea of personal growth & change; personal is political.

Straight Edge.
Veganism.
Human Rights. ... more
