W E ' R E B A C K !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes people, it's true!! This is NOT a mirage, Loud Lyrix is finally back in distribution after a LONG two week sabbatical... anyways, TONS has happened during this time. For one thing, I have finished school, after writing three exams, and I'm now working at Canada's Wonderland, ooops! I mean Paramount Canada's Wonderland. (It's a big theme park located just north of Toronto for those of you that don't know, which is probably about 90% of you!) Well, as you can probably imagine, I'm happy as hell that skule's over... I thought that I'd finally have a little time to rest, and catch up on some sleep and get rid of the bags under my eyes, but NO!! It's even fucking worse than before!!! Holy shit, I'm half dead. Anyways, let's get to the big thing, our NEW listserv!! Many thanks go out to Joe Baptista of Planet Communications for taking me on outta the goodness of his heart (!!!) Anyways, this makes things MUCH easier for me, more than any of you can possibly know! Hopefully by now, Joe has gotten around to sending everyone Loud Lyrix's revamped FAQ. The FAQ has all the information that you'll need to know about the listserv, how to subscribe, and how to sign off, make GOOD USE OF IT! And one last thing, remember, don't send anything to the list address, lyrix@planet.org, 'cause it'll just bounce that mail back to the administrative address, lyrix@terranet.cts.com, so DON'T WASTE RESOURCES......thank you. Ok dudes!! Ton's has happened since Issue #11 on June 7th, I went to see Pantera, Sepultura and Biohazard, and had a fucking WICKED time!! But I unfortunately DON'T have the time right now to type out the whole story for you dudes... it's currently 11:09 on Tuesday the 21st so I'm in a huge rush to get the issue done, but don't despair, I will get around to writing an essay for this concert, plus the Metallica/Suicidal/Danzig concert from the 4th, AND the Scorpions concert this Saturday the 25th too!! Whoa! What a line up, you dudes are in for a treat. Ok, the line up for this week is pretty typical, the last song is a reader's submission, the rest are my own picks (as if you guyz can't tell by now eh?). Yes, it's true, we have finally finished King Diamond's epic "The Eye" album. Chapter 10 is the final installment in the story, I really hope you dudes liked it all, but I urge ALL of you to grab this CD, and listen to it, nothing compares to the actually music with the lyrics, it's the only way to get the full effect. Well, the next concept album is King Diamond's "Them". This album is pretty awesome, although not as good as "The Eye", but still, King Diamond just can't go wrong with his stories! This album however is MUCH better with the music, there are lot's of little special F/X that they have on the album that really make it cool. I'd recommend getting this album as well. Well people, that's just about everything, hopefully next week I'll be able to write those essays I promised, but I seriously doubt it, I'm pretty fucking packed with work and other shit, it's UNREAL, anyways, I WILL WRITE THEM!! By issue #25 I'll have 'em done for sure! :) CONTENTS -------- Advertisements Song 1: "The Curse" ("The Eye", Chapter 10) by King Diamond Song 2: "Prologue" ("Them", Chapter i) by King Diamond Song 3: "Out From The Asylum" ("Them, Chapter 1) by King Diamond Song 4: "Soul-Crusher" by White Zombie Song 5: "Breaking The Law" by Judas Priest Song 6: "Belly of the Beast" by Anthrax Song 7: "The Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin Song 8: "God of Thunder" by Kiss Song 9: "Computer God" by Black Sabbath Song 10: "Triumph of Death" by Hellhammer -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ********************** A D V E R T I S E M E N T S ************************ From: "Marcel Hubregtse" To: lyrix@terranet.cts.com Subject: Desperately Seeking ============================================================================ Desperately seeking: lyrics to Venom's "Black Metal" album, and the lyrics to Detente's "Recognize No Authority" album and finally the lyrics to Mercyful Fate's "Melissa" album. ============================================================================ Date: Mon, 30 May 94 12:59:02 From: bjarneh@elvebakken.vgs.no (Bjarne Henning Kvaale) To: lyrix@terranet.cts.com Subject: A 'zine We hereby announce that a new 'zine(on paper) are under production.

I am scared to death. 9 years ago they finally let me out, and I was just beginning to feel better. I am not Myself any longer. I guess You could not even recognize My face if You saw Me now. That phone call 2 hours ago has torn Me apart. It was Grandma. She invited Me back to the old house. I do not want to go back, but I must. Maybe You will understand My fear if I tell You what happened during My childhood. 18 years ago I was living with My mother and My sister Missy in Grandma's old house. I had been told that Grandma was away on a long vacation, and that she would soon return. She did. I have later found out that she was actually being released from that same asylum. "She's insane", they said, when she kept on babbling about "THEM". I still cannot make up My mind about who really did separate Grandpa's head from his shoulders. You see, "THEY" were always so nice to Me. Anyway, time is short and I must leave for the old house. So here is what happened 18 years ago. And in case we never see each other again, at least You will know why. I bet we are going to have tea.
