Not RomanPort The cover art looks a bit cheap, but holy shit does this album sound awesome. Give it a listen immediately if you're a fan of ass-kicking, old-school death metal. Favorite track: Rattenkrieg.

Bloodied But Unbowed Do you like your death metal old school? if so, check these guys out. This is a solid debut. Mofsed seems to have something of a fetish for the band Death, and I mean that as a compliment.

Rattenkrieg 04:43
Taking flight under cover of the night It’s time to begin invasion Dropping on shore for the second World War Gripping the stock of your M1 Race against time behind enemy lines A labyrinth of death awaits you The battle is dire, they’re taking heavy fire But the allied advance must break through The eyes of the world are upon you Doing what must be done Battle through the hedgerows Freedom can be won Rattenkrieg Men dispersed from the 101st Fighting to capture Carentan Armies collide in the French countryside But the allied force will hold strong Stakes are high, for the fate of mankind Europe hangs in the balance Final strike, destroy the Third Reich Total victory over Nazi Germany The eyes of the world are upon you Doing what must be done Battle through the hedgerows Freedom can be won Rattenkrieg

Dawn Patrol 04:59
1917 Germans take to the skies Royal airmen are fighting for their lives Machine guns fire below, dead men lay in the mud The German jagdstaffel will bring four weeks of blood The mourning winds blow silently Over once peaceful grounds Taking flight for another day What peace can be found? Delving deep in the fog of war Leaving home behind Bleeding friends and the stench of death Entrenched within their minds Death is imminent there's no turning back Neither side will rest Prepare for the attack This is the one The war to end them all Against their enemies They shall never fall Endless peril and the lives at stake Begin to take their toll Always living in uncertainty They are the dawn patrol Gunning hard through blood red skies Push for victory Daring actions of courageous men Live through history

Tokkōtai 05:14
Diversion comes down from the north Empty carriers draw them away The last vessel who assaulted at Pearl Revenge will be taken this day Attack the land invasion it’s our only chance Must shell the allied beachhead before we can advance Clouds of flak are painting the sky Steel war machine break through the tide Musashi leads the imperial fleet In the Gulf of Leyte she will find defeat The hell divers come screaming down Along the Philippines death is all around Pacific war is getting dire Divine winds are upon us Now fire! The depths, the air, and spanning the seas The fights all around there’s nowhere to retreat Scramble the fighters, man your positions We’ll beat the enemy into submission The time has come to serve your country and defend your pride To become a kamikaze, bring honor as you die Clouds of flak are painting the sky Steel war machine break through the tide Musashi leads the imperial fleet In the Gulf of Leyte she will find defeat The hell divers come screaming down Along the Phillipines death is all around Pacific war is getting dire Divine winds are upon us Now fire! Machine guns fire! Heavy guns fire! Torpedos fire!

Holy persecution By those who are sworn to the sands Sacred institution Is plaguing throughout the lands Subhuman impulses rising Allah will taste your blood Bow to the savage uprising Terror will be your god Bow at the feet of the chosen Relinquish your humanity A storm in the east has risen Demanding your conformity كافر عقد لسانك تهمس يست الحقيقة كفر السلالات فيكم يجب عليك البقاء Silent as the Grave Religious political subversion Under a peaceful guise Violence and forceful conversion Ultimate human demise Even women and children Cannot escape his grasp Sheep to the savage demon Victims of his wrath Bow at the feet of the chosen Relinquish your humanity A storm in the east has risen Demanding your conformity كافر عقد لسانك تهمس يست الحقيقة كفر السلالات فيكم يجب عليك البقاء Silent as the Grave

I grant you the sight Open your mind Move into the light Go forth and die As your senses awake You must trust in the scroll More than life is at stake When you fight for your soul Battle hard in the land of the dead A raging war’s inside your head Conceal your sins at the keepers gate The scarabs spell will seal your fate Final keys inside your heart Impure souls are torn apart Vicious quests to paradise For which you pay the ultimate price Sail to the sun Alongside Ra The battle’s just begun Pharaoh’s war Slay the darkness Light is restored Anubis awaits You have forsaken Ra Now pass through the gates Where death becomes law Your journey has failed And the gods you have scorned Now your fate is unveiled Your soul shall burn Can’t escape life after death The rotting stench of your final breath Spirit crushed in it’s fetid womb The blackened void will be your tomb Ageless fate of a sinful whore Devoured soul of the blasphemer Anubis calls your destiny Doomed to writhe eternally Sail to the sun Alongside Ra The battle’s just begun Pharaoh’s war Slay the darkness Light is restored

Chivalry 03:54
War as a means to an end Lives are yours to expend Gripping fear, death always near in a world of kill or be killed Beliefs misled, no tears are shed when innocent blood is spilled Wait for your next meal Wait for the moment when you will die Wait for the last friend to say goodbye Forgo the chivalry of warfare In men who lay down their lives What is a war without honor Where absolute savagery thrives No more rules of engagement Only desire to kill Brainwashed into enslavement Unholy triumph of will Forgo the chivalry of warfare In men who die for a cause What political motives Justify killing for god Forgo the chivalry of warfare In men who lay down their lives What is a war without honor Where absolute savagery thrives No more room for sympathy Every day is something you earn Remembering something history taught us Mankind refuses to learn Insatiable hunger Coupled with pride A dangerous ego In which we confide Step back from the path you walk and look what it leaves behind No end no glory only misery is what you’ll find Who will be the first one to break this endless cycle of hate Who will take a stand before it’s too late

The People 05:56
Turn your head the other way It’s none of your concern You perpetrate your shall lives While the constitution burns You cast your vote, forsake your voice It all matters not No one it held accountable Lay back and watch us rot Give the people what they want Politician celebrity Give the people what they want False sense of security Give the people what they want Generations in dismay Give the people what they want This is the American way Control the news, limit free speech To keep the truth confined The media will play their part They gladly keep you blind Here take my money, here take my rights Just leave me alone I can’t be bothered to take a stand And protect my own home Give the people what they want Politician celebrity Give the people what they want False sense of security Give the people what they want Generations in dismay Give the people what they want This is the American way

Fuel the injustice with materialistic debt Absolute profit for the economic threat One global market with a clearance on your rights Surrendering your freedom, without putting up a fight Mega corporations with global arms control Ascension of your government, who gladly play their role Children forced in labor camps to reinforce elite A scheme beyond the pyramid, open your eyes and see Work, buy, consume, die Slaving for the things you do not need Work, buy, consume, die Building up their power with your greed Third world countries regimented, no labor laws adjust Only widespread starvation can feed their endless lust Economy manipulation controls the flow of wealth Deciders of global affairs: war, politics, and health Pockets lined with blood and tears enforce rapacity Only profits and avarice, no humanity Work, buy, consume, die Slaving for the things you do not need Work, buy, consume, die Building up their power with your greed

The darkness came closer to home on the Following night And Miriam slept like a rock when Jonathan's face went white The bedroom was ice cold But the fire was burning still The blinding light The family ghost had risen again...the ghost Don't be scared, don't be scared now my friend I am count de lafey Let me take you to the crypt down below Where Abigail rests Let Miriam sleep She never would understand Now come let us go... it's time to know Beware of the slippery stairs You could easily fall and break your neck Hand me that torch and I will lead the way To the secret in the dark Take a look into the vault, the vault The sarcophagus...of a child Abigail has been in here for years and years Stillborn The spirit of Abigail is inside your wife And there's only one way you can stop The rebirth of evil itself You must take her life now

about

Davis, California's MOFSED were formed in 2011 by vocalist/guitarist Zakk Thonen and drummer Randy Teresi. Their goal was to play unrelenting, driving, and pounding death metal with dynamic and anthemic lead guitar sections. Mike Clements was brought on for additional lead guitars and session bass, filling out Mofsed's high-flying sound. The album draws from influences such as Death, Vader, Bolt Thrower, Master, The Chasm, Judas Priest, and King Diamond.
