Hatebreed’s ‘Destroy Everything’ uses domestic cats in their video
Hatebreed’s Destroy Everything video illustrated by domestic cats
Hatebreed’s ‘Destroy Everything’ uses cats in their video and I don’t like it because it is not a good look for the domestic cat. I am probably being too serious but the music is about destroying modern life and rebuilding the world. The images of cats destroying household items and hitting people are used to illustrate this music. A cynical exploitation of the ever popular internet cat.
Hatebreed is a metalcore band from Bridgeport, Connecticut, formed in 1994. Alternatives to ‘metalcore’ are hardcore punk, metallic hardcore and heavy hardcore. They all apply to this band. The band are asking for revolution on this track!
Here are the lyrics to the Destroy Everything track (my thanks to azlyrics.com) – although all I can hear is ‘destroy everything’:
A new life begins
Destroy everything
Obliterate what makes us weak
Destroy everything
Decimate what threatens me
Cleanse this world with flame
End this, cleanse this
Rebuild and start again
Obliterate what makes us weak
End this and embrace the destruction
End this to embrace new life
NEW LIFE
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won’t soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won’t soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect
Destroy everything
Obliterate what makes us weak
Destroy everything
Decimate what threatens me
Cleanse this world with flame
End this, cleanse this
Rebuild and start again
Obliterate what makes us weak
End this and embrace the destruction
End this to embrace new life
NEW LIFE
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won’t soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won’t soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect
A new life begins
Destroy everything
Obliterate what makes us weak
Destroy everything
Decimate what threatens me
Destroy everything
So a new life can begin
Destroy everything
Rebuild and start again….again
I agree with you 100% on this.
Young human males are too often promoting hatred of life.
All their work achieves is to encourage hatred of cats in this instance. More abuse, cruelty.
