Nasum
Nasum (pronounced 'nah-zumm') was a grindcore band from Örebro, Sweden formed in 1992. The band released four studio albums, developed into "one of that country's premier metal acts" and disbanded after the December 2004 tsunami killed the band's frontman, Mieszko Talarczyk. The band's name, Latin for "nose", was taken from the horror film Flesh for Frankenstein.
In 2012, Nasum reunited with Rotten Sound frontman Keijo Niinimaa taking the place of Talarczyk, for a one-off tour to celebrate the band's 20th anniversary.
Biography
Nasum was formed in 1992 by Anders Jakobson (guitar) and Rickard Alriksson (drums/vocals), two former members of the band Necrony. The record label of Necrony offered Nasum a slot on a split 7". After Mieszko Talarczyk joined the band as a guitarist in 1993, the band was featured on Blind World split EP with Agathocles. After several more splits, Nasum released an MCD (mini compact disc) of their own with Poserslaughter Records in 1995.
As the band started touring, Alriksson departed from Nasum. Guitarist Jakobson moved into the drummer's position and Talarczyk handled guitars and vocals. More EPs and splits followed over 1996 and 1997; and in 1998 Nasum released their first full-length album, Inhale/Exhale, on Relapse Records. As the band expanded their audience and touring, they recruited a full-time bassist, Jesper Liveröd (from Burst) in early 1999. The second album, Human 2.0, was released in April 2000 and followed by two years of touring and performing in support of the work, including a stop in Japan.

Wrath
by: NasumUnder submission for a long time
For a thousand years
My soul is starting to rot
My work is done here
I've shed my share of blood, sweat and tears
I'm leaving this melting pot
You come to stop me
To convince me that i can't escape
I'm tired of being your rat
Armouder with reasons, threats and lies
But it is much too late
I'm about to unleash my wrath
I won't accept this life
A victim of your oppression
To be enslaved and sell my soul to the other side
Never be your fucking puppet
I've tasted your fist
And felt your whip burning on my skin
I have dealt with the pain
The more you hit the more you feed
The anger boiling within
Your failure I will sustain
I've been your workhorse
And now it's time for this horse to kick your head
I'm pounding my way out
To step aside, get out of my way
If not you'll end up dead
Or at least know what true pain is about
I won't accept this life
A victim of your oppression
To be enslaved and sell my soul to the other side
Never be your puppet on a string
I won't accept this life
And fall into a dark depression
To be a slave, cast in chains, always forced to hide
Buried under bricks of guilt
I have tasted your fist
I have dealt with the pain
Rip my back with your whip
My pain is my gain
I won't accept this life
A victim of your oppression
To be enslaved and sell my soul to the other side
Never be your puppet on a string
I won't accept this life
And fall into a dark depression
To be a slave, cast in chains, always forced to hide
