Austrian Death Machine released their first album "Total Brutal" on July 22, 2008. A few months later they released a Christmas theme EP titled "A Very Brutal Christmas". After some tour support of "Total Brutal, Lambesis went back on tour with As I Lay Dying. While on tour he posted on Austrian Death Machine's MySpace blog that he had ideas to follow up "Total Brutal" with a double disc effort titled "Double Brutal" stating that the first disc would be original songs where the second disc would be comprised of cover songs. After returning home from tour in early Summer 2009, he went straight to work on "Double Brutal" which was released September 29, 2009.
Austrian Death Machine's third album, "Triple Brutal" is also released and is awesome!

Why?
Cause he already sang on the second verse and he's talking trash and thank that you should... you know set him stright.

Why?
These lyrics are from Austrian Death Machine's song "Why?" which appears on their second album entitled "Double Brutal". The song is a humorous exchange between the lead vocalist, who takes on the persona of Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the fictional character of Predator, a reference to Schwarzenegger's film "Predator".
The lyrics are essentially a conversation between Schwarzenegger's character and Predator, with Schwarzenegger being encouraged by his teammate to assert his dominance and show that he's the best. This is evident when the lyrics say "you should use it to show Predator how much better you are than he is" and "Because your Arni and nobody beats you and you don't want everybody else thinking you're weak". The song is primarily meant to be humorous and satirical, and as such, doesn't really possess any deep meaning.

Hey arni i got this rele great idea with this song, and i think you should use it to show predeator how much better you are than he is.
My dear Arnold, I have a brilliant plan for this song and suggest you use it to teach Predator a lesson about inferiority compared to yourself.
Why?
May I inquire the reason for such a suggestion?
Cause he already sang on the second verse and he's talking trash and thank that you should... you know set him stright.
He has already indicated his vocal talent in the second verse and has been boasting in an offensive manner, hence you should take action to correct his behavior.
Why?
Just curious, why do you propose such a reaction?
Well Because your arni and nobody beats you and you dont want everybody else thinking your weak.
Simply put, it is because of your unique title, Arnold. No one can outdo or surpass you, therefore you must not allow any confusion about your strength in the minds of others.

There are plenty of darker thrash oriented songs on the full album, but I wanted to poke fun at myself a little and trying something anthemic here. I hope you guys like the full 10 songs when you hear them!
