Summoning forth A thousand nails for the lid of our coffin Turgid worms in the earth slumbering Launch codes compromised Opening the silos Cold cunts full of fire The silos Cold cunts full of fire Hoofbeats and hot winds The atomic lance of a nuclear deathknight Piercing the world Blackening the surface In Fermi's Fimbulwinter Beneath arcs of ash Destiny mutually assured By an opening salvo Courtesy of Dr. Oppenheimer Particle crash One final blood feast Time of death planet Earth
2.
Why do you die so easily? Snuffed out in a million ways Suffocation - Exsanguination - Dehydration - and a million other variations No matter what the means The end remains the same Exterminate! Disgustingly fragile So inferior Impotence negates your will to resist Grim before the overkill Butcher all who still persist Cowering like rats in the ruins! Extermination of human life! Your civilization ended When you started running for your lives Your inability to prevent this Justifies our judgement Depleting your societies One vote at a time Numbered citizens remain Numbers in the body count They erased you as humans We exterminate you as life Dismantling your culture Rotting in the streets Your final tradition [Exist and expire, Prematurely Consumed in the fires of history A new memory Born in your blood-stained wake Pest control Infestation exponential The plague stops here You'll never leave this rock again Doom deemed it wise to intervene Death presumed to wipe you clean] Die! Like a stormgiant's mallet The hammer comes down The guilt must ultimately rest with God He is just a painter cleansing his palatte A new world in monochrome Blood-Red Borne on the waves Of the blood-dimmed tide That lifts all boats On the river Styx Don't forget to tip the Ferryman On your way to Hell.
3.
When even God doesn't know what happens next Beyond the event horizon They plan for our destruction, Demise, extinction, extermination Hostile technological singularities In vain you search for similarities [From the past you cannot find them The gods are yet to exist] Existential threat reversing everything There now is a law of accelerating returns Obsolete human race through Recursive self improvement

White Death 04:04
An Arctic war Like a never-ending Showing of an Underexposed film The unearthly silence Hides a deadly secret Listen to the stillness In the great forest Vast, dense, undeciduous forests Tomb of your unrest, eternal Snow camouflage discipline Of the men of brooding quality White ghosts from nowhere Hail you with bullets Like lambs to the slaughter Advancing on roads We cut your formations To little pieces In this most brutal winter The Northland has ever known Division by division Belaya Smert consumes you
5.
Research, development, and experimental Deployment of epidemic creating Biowarfare weapons A real choice mission Invasive surgery On infected patients To study the effects Of disease on the body Vivisection With no anesthesia Inoculations of disease, Disguised as vaccinations Human targets tied to a stake Being used to test grenades Pray for Death Which you won't find Long to die but Death will flee Plague-infested fleas, Bred in laboratories Thousands of dead From modern bubonic plague Vertically cut in half In a six-foot-high jar Pickled in formaldehyde Cannot run, cannot hide

From Hell 04:23
"Most of you know what it means to see a hundred corpses lying together, five hundred, or a thousand. To have stuck it out and at the same time apart from exceptions caused by human weakness to have remained decent fellows, that is what has made us hard. This is a page of glory in our history which has never been written and shall never be written." History's first metrosexual History's worst criminal? Master of multitasking Morbidly busy inventing A hortonomical enthusiast Talented transport coordinator Diabolically skillful organizer Of rationalized modern extermination methods Pedantic demeanour and exquisite courtesy Hide from view the absolute lunacy Bureaucratic discipline and charismatic authority Conscienceless efficiency and romantic fantasy Beneath the surface Philosophical mysticism Obsession with mesmerism, The occult, herbal remedies and homeopathy Growing condiments In unnatural habitats Concurrently arranging Logistics of genocide A revived web of obsolete Religious and cosmological dogmas Linking recruits to their Distant Germanic ancestors

To remain ignorant Is a willful act Ignorant of the fact That in our midst There's a terrifying evil Gathering forces Spreading it's doctrines Like the plague An ancient threat That never died Generation to generation The chain never broke Rising from the ashes like Phoenix You fools! The chain never broke The master is commodious With a cunning face And a cunning camouflage I am His servant to the grave!
9.
A flash of light Then the shockwave Knocks you flat Seared by the blast The Hot Breath of Death In Your Face Particles penetrate Defenseless flesh On fatal wavelengths Baptized in the fallout [Murderous isotopes Strontium storms And Cesium showers Median lethal dose exceeded] With blistered lips, Kiss it all goodbye Warhead Apocalypse! The scene from orbit Death blossoms everywhere Another failed deterrent No nation spared [By winds of fire and radioactive ash The end has come, The end of days Because, Nuclear weapons want to be used Power projection From the silo to our common grave Mutually Assured Destruction Don't get even, get mad Multi-gigaton detonations Defcon 666] Warhead Apocalypse!

about

[NOTE! : THIS ALBUM IS NOW ALSO AVAILABLE AS A CD! www.digilisko.com/apocalypse-warhead-opening-the-silos-p-1126.html?language=gb ]
Opening the Silos is the debut album of Apocalypse Warhead. Laitinen is the singer, guitarist and bassist of the band as well as the one doing the drum programming as well as doing all the music and lyrics, except Pan Ziege (Null Dynamo) provided lyrics for three songs of the debut album (all lyrics for songs 1,2 and 9).

Nate Gould (The Rotted) does NOT play in this band, and never did on any recorded material, including this album. There were plans to do this at some point, but it never happened, so the rumors on the internet regarding Nate playing on Opening the Silos are incorrect.

Sami Raatikainen (Necrophagist / Radiance / Codeon) did the mixing and mastering on Opening The Silos. He also created the intros/outros and provided some additional drum programming. This co-operation will continue in the future releases of Apocalypse Warhead. There are also plans to recruit some professional lead guitar players to handle the solos.

This album is dedicated to Jeff Hannemann.
