i've owned "the Bleeding" for quite a while and each time i listen to it, the more i am impressed in the musicianship, but i get more dissappointed with Chris lyric-writing. it's awfully repetitive and almost boring to listen to. although Fucked with a knife and An Experiement in Homicide weren't bad.

does anyone share these feelings for "The Bleeding"?

I think it must just be you. IMHO its got great lyrics, but not as cool as on Butchered or Tomb.

I think The Bleeding has excellent lyrical content

Bleeding my my least favorite Corpse album. Stripped Raped And Strangled rules though!!!

she liked the way it felt inside her........fucking her harder HARDER

dude the lyrics are fucking awesome............the bleeding is probably my favorite corpse album at the moment

yeah yeah , the bleeding is a big dissapointment ....along with reign in blood

ride the lightning , etc.... im joking of course ...... lyrically and musically the

bleeding shreds ....... thats like a maiden fan asking if number of the beast

was a dissapointment . . . . . this does not make any logical sense ............


and im actually quite disturbed ..... i think i'll crawl back into my hole now

and btw ........ thanks agent for the sacrifice !!!!! long live thrash !!!!!!!!!!!

i'm not saying the Bleeding is crap, i'm merely saying that the lyrics for the songs (although i have said that Fucked With a Knife and An experiment in Homicide rules) isnt up to par to the previous song. take the song Pulverized, Barnes repeat essentially the same verse over and over. to me, it sounded like Barnes was running out of ideas. on the flipside, musicianship has improved ten-fold over Eaten Back to Life. it has gotten more technical better developed.

that's just my opinion

yeah well u sit down and write a song thats better then any chris barnes's lyrics then youll have sumfin 2 whinge about!!!!!!!

yeah i see wat u mean man, i dont think the lyrics r particualry bad but they r fuckin tame compared to TOTM and BAB, with possibly the exception of fucked with a knife. Staring through the eyes of the dead is a very clever song though and shows that barnes isnt just a fucked up mental necro freak (which isnt a bad thing ) i wonder y he chose to tone his lyrics down 4 this one, imagine how fucked up the lyrics woulda been if u took it further than TOTM

You thought it was over, it's not over
I'll be back, I brought my axe

In the shadows, alone in the dark
Young victims I stalk

You thought it was over, it's not over
I'll be back

From the grave
To mutilate

Axed in the back
Pick through the neck
Dead like the rest

Molested and left
Limbs split in half
I ruptured their flesh
Puncture wounds
To the head

Bone fragments clot to the hatchet
Knee-deep in the blood of the dead
Cranial separation
Sex with her severed head

Rotten walking dead
Hunting living victims


seems pretty bad arse to me \m/ fucked with a knife, staring through the eyes of the dead.. i think this album has pretty good lyrics, not as good as the previous albums but not disapointing in the least.

tht doesnt disapoint me in the least

Chris Barnes wrote shitty lyrics because he couldn't write any better than his previous work. He couldn't improve on perfection. Same reason Slayer started playing like crap.

Eyes of the Dead is the scariest song though, not because of gore, but because of actual psychological fear. FYI, Make Them Suffer doesn't have any gore either.

i agree with that

The vocals are the only thing wrong with the ablum, they all sound the same. The lyrics are fucking great.

They think they know who I am. All they know is I love to kill. Face down, dead on the ground. Find me before another is found. I come alive in the darkness

Classic Song

The Bleeding is my fourth favorite cannibal corpse album....for now.

IF their was any sense in this world of ours...the mods would have locked this

topic before it got dumb ...... all you nu cannibal fans please pay attention .

the bleeding is paramount material for cannibal corpse.....its there best selling

album .... and lyrically / musically / and production wise the best of their musical

career ....... listen to the bleeding again , clean the wax out of your ears...... and

read the lyrics ...this album is top.........

......this album is to corpse what killers was to maiden.......

after the best ....the best singers get the hoof ...........wtf ? ? ? ?

well god damn...preach on brotha man

Well I agree the "lyrics" are more interesting on Butchered or Tomb, but Chris' singing is better on the Bleeding.

The Bleeding is the best Barnes era album without a doubt

But The Bleeding is not the best Cannibal Corpse album by far, Vile is a big step forward and they only got better from then on.

These obviously arn't chris's best lyrics but compared to the rest of the catalogue it's pretty good... I think this album it pretty overated... they've done better.

Now Playing: CC - murder worship

UH...WAIT A MINUTE....I THOUGHT VILE WAS THEIR BEST SELLING? I COULD BE WRONG THOUGH....OR DID VILE JUST MOVE THE MOST UNITS IN IT'S FIRST WEEK?


BUT I AGREE.....THE BLEEDING IS AN EXCELLENT RECORD WITHOUT A DULL MOMENT ON IT WHATSOEVER. I CAN LISTEN TO THAT ALBUM 50 TIMES IN A ROW AND NOT GET BORED. SHIT...I HAVE THE CD FOR INSIDE AND THE CASETTE OUT IN MY VAN.....THAT MY WIFE HAS TAKEN OVER.....AND NEVER LISTENS TO...BUT WHATEVER.


ANYWAYS....THE BLEEDING IS THE BEST BARNES ERA RECORD. NOTICE HOW HE KEPT THE SAME STYLE OF VOCALS THROUGHOUT THE REST OF HIS CAREER, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF TRUE CARNAGE?

total units sold , from the bleeding .... vile sold alot in the beginning yes .

but over all the bleeding has out sold them all , paul even mentions it in the

interview " irate nate " posted ....








- i want action tonight , satisfaction -ALRIGHT !

On Live Cannibalism is it the bleeding that is performed 'cause all the songs you have named have been on LC?!

Now Playing: Teachers chatting

I think the lyrics are great not as good as BAB or TOTM but still.

whats wrong with you theres nothing wrong with the CD its awsome.

This was the album where the lyrics lightened up

no its where they got less comical , and more serious . barnes was the man

Are you illiterate.....blind...deaf...or just retarded??


As Rob said.... this is where CC's lyrics reached a heightened level of sadistic seriousness. I mean just compare say the lyrics to "Ediable Autopsy" to say "Fucked With A Knife" or "An Experiment In Homicide". Lyrically, it's no comparison.

HAIL BARNES!!!!!!!

I might be illiterate, blind, and deaf, but I'm not retarded.

its the bleeding man ?!?!?!?!?

I might remind you that this is not the bloodlands so no name calling.

Better listen

NO NO and NO.


HAIL Thronesinesia(my home planet)!!!!!!!!

WTF?????

You'd better listen to.

alright

Now Playing: skinless-wicked world

I loved the lyrics.

I think the best lyrics off that album were to the song stripped, raped, and strangled.

well, i dont know about a disapointment but it definately was not up to par with tomb and butchered. i think the reason that this is the least favorite cc album with barnes is because of his involvement with six feet under at the time. he was in six feet under while he did the bleeding and the seperate styles began to merge and it left many cc fans disapointed. if you listen to the bleeding and compare it with the first six feet under album, the vocal style is very similar which leads me to believe that he got somewhat tired of cannibal corpse and wanted to make cc sound like six feet under, and he somewhat acheived that goal in the bleeding. well thats just my opinion but i dont know. you decide

listen to created to kill and you would have heard exactly what CC would have sounded like if Barnes was still the singer.
