A musical oddity.
#1
So I was skimming through old files on my home PC the other day--Doin' some security updates, cleanup and the like--and while digging through old files from friends, I came across an ancient MP3.

.. I have no idea who the heck this is. There's no ID3 tag to it. There's nothing in the filename to really say who it is. And, if I remember correctly, it was sent to me to try and find out who it was that made the song. Apparently, I forgot about it in the shuffle of home life and work.

So I figured I'd ask at a music forum, and see if anyone can help out.

I can safely say in terms of sound, it's reminiscent of old Metallica--.. And Justice For All era, I'd guess. The vocalist even sounds like Hetfield, at least to me. My problem, however, is that a friend of mine who is a diehard Metallica fan says it's not them.. So.. Yeah, kinda at a loss on that front.

The lyrics are rather short, as well. The closest I can make them out with any degree of accuracy is as follows:

-----

Death, destruction, in the eyes of the devil you can see corruption.
Why must it be the (one my soul?) coming from me?
You love, I hate--I can't be the one to demonstrate
The way you feel, (show the one that makes nothing real?)

Terminate
(Stoning?) my view
Nothing to do.

Separate
The power to be
(To over?) me

-----

That would be first verse and rough idea of the chorus.

Any ideas? Care to help a guy out? I'd like to be able to provide a safe bet of an answer to a friend, if I can remember who sent this my way. And, frankly, I'm bloody curious. This bugs me.

I found it in about five minutes by Googling the lyrics.

I'm perplexed that you haven't managed that ?!

.. To be honest, I absolutely blanked on that way of finding a song. Crap. Now I feel just plain silly. Thank you!
