Artist picture
Psychosis plays all original metal in the vein of Mercyful Fate and Iron Maiden.
Psychosis. Insanity. Old School Metal. When you hear Psychosis, you instantly are transported back to the days of true Black Metal when Mercyful Fate was playing in clubs. We play original music and laugh at the MTV generation.

Story behind the song
This is the title track of the upcoming album. All vox, drums and guitars were performed by Griffey. I actually had a dream about the solo, woke up and recorded the tracks for it...I was originally going to have Matt Clark write a solo for this one like he did for "Chosen", and he told me that he actually had one in mind for it...but evil dreams take precedence. Maybe we'll use his work on "Serpents...", which is the second part to this song. Another interesting note is that this song had me pissed off for a long time because the original vocal layers I recorded sounded like shit...but like most things, I have found that as long as I don't get impatient and either post a crappy version or scrap it entirely, I can usually walk away and then revisit it a few weeks later and see things from a different angle. I got lucky and found a solution that changed the original sound of the song entirely, bringing out the intended force. I think everyone will be pleased....
Lyrics
Silence in the halls of the damned sentenced to obscurity their souls condemned waiting for a savior that will never come they pray to a god that has made them dumb Evil priests scattered through the dark empire each with a piece of the deadly scrolls inscribing words of death, pain and misery when these scrolls connect there will be nothing left (chorus) One night a messenger came from the darkest hell ridden on horseback the nag black as night gathering all the scrolls of the deadly words to take them back to his master before he could die 9 books became of these scrolls bathed in the blood of their makers 9 books became of these scrolls bound with the skin of their makers (solo) 9 books became of these scrolls bathed in the blood of their makers 9 books became of these scrolls bound with the skin of their makers
