Stranglehold - Lyrics - Satanic Surfers

Satanic Surfers were formed in fall 1989 by vocalist Erik and drummer Rodrigo. Soon after Frederick and Magnus joined on guitar and Tomek on bass, but the band did not release their debut, Skate to Hell, until 1993. Skate to Hell was the first release issued by Bad Taste Records. Ulf replaced Erik on vocals for 1994's Keep Out on Burning Heart Records, and when he left the group, Rodrigo became the group's vocalist alongside drumming duties. Three LPs then followed on Burning Heart, with several lineup changes occurring before the group returned to Bad Taste for two releases in 2000. After 2002's Unconsciously Confined, the group added bassist Andy DahlstrÃ¶m and drummer Robert Samsonovitz, and issued their final album, 2005's Taste the Poison. They disbanded in 2007.

To be nobody but yourself in a world which does its best Night and day to make everybody else, means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight... Resisting with every breath to conform Refusing to play along Breaking free from this stranglehold ...and never stop fighting To allow ourselves to feel real feeling not media created, manipulated, stimulated feelings is a political act in itself Cutting off the puppet string This umbilical cord that feeds us *** and never stop, never stop, never stop, never stop fighting!
