Blind Illusion
Blind Illusion is an American progressive thrash metal band from Richmond, California. Formed in 1979 by lead guitarist and main songwriter Marc Biedermann, the band had an extremely unstable lineup (Biedermann being the only constant member) and went through several stylistic changes during their time. After a 20-year hiatus, Biedermann reformed Blind Illusion in 2009 and released the band's 2nd album, Demon Master. As of June 2014 they are working on new material.
History
Blind Illusion was formed by-then-high-school student Marc Biedermann, along with many other members including keyboardist Ben Hevoroh and drummer Bret Hern.
The band's earliest sound had been musically rooted as progressive rock, with Biedermann citing as his main inspirations Rush, King Crimson and Jethro Tull. However, external input from later musicians - many with ties to the Bay Area thrash scene - would add a heavy metal direction to the band, a style Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson described as being "in the veins of old Judas Priest, Angel Witch and early Fates Warning".

Vengeance Is Mine
by: Blind IllusionEye for eye
Tooth for tooth
You'll get yours
Before it's through
Living war
Up to your knees in blood
What are you dying for?
Peace and love?
Kill for peace
Kill for land
Killing time?
Vengeance is mine
Blood is thicker than water
Land is worth more than gold
Oil leads man to the slaughter
Greed will eat at your soul
Terrorists threaten our streets
So now they are mine fields
All powers will be unleashed
When killing is fashion we all must kill
