1) Bulldozer … Read Full Bio ↴There have been at least 6 bands under name Bulldozer:
1) Bulldozer is an Italian speed/thrash/proto-black metal band formed in 1980. Their music was frequently referred to as Italy's answer to Venom, and on the strength of their debut album, 1985's "Day Of Wrath" (produced by Algy Ward of Tank), it's easy why this was the case. Alberto Contini's bass and vocals both strongly resembled his Venom counterpart Cronos, and the band's messy Satanic pre-thrash metal was indeed quite similar to Venom's first couple of albums. They survived for a few more years and released three more albums that no doubt diverged from the Venom sound, but for right or wrong, they never really managed to escape the Venom clone tag and never got above cult status. They split-up in 1992. They decided to start up again in 2008 and is currently working on a new album.
2) Finnish Traditional Heavy Metal band formed in 1996 and split-up around 2002.
3) Croatian Heavy Metal band formed in 2001.
4) French punk band in the late 70s.
5) Spanish punk band formed in 2001
6) Dutch Hands Up formation
7) Australian stoner metal/rock band

Bulldozer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is my life I love it
Finally we are all together
Finally we do feel much better
My brothers will stick around me
We'll live united and see
The world finally dead
"the master has lost his pet"
We look satisfied at the ruins of the master 'cause
We do hate gods!
We never liked creatures we never liked Crowley
We hated men's guts they are fuckin' betrayers
(Then) we claimed: stake!
The bastards predicted our rout
That was the wish of their gods
Our power refused their slaves
We just lived by the graves
Religions called us demons
Because we looked for freedom
We hated the saints and their lies
We made the virgin cry
(We are) really delighted (we) provoked the disaster
We look satisfied at the ruins of the master 'cause
We do hate gods!
We never liked creatures we never liked Crowley
We hated men's guts they are fuckin' betrayers
(Then) we claimed: stake!
(We are) really delighted (we) provoked the disaster
We look satisfied at the ruins of the master 'cause
We do hate gods!
We never liked creatures we never liked Crowley
We hated men's guts they are fuckin' betrayers
(Then) we claimed: stake!
The lyrics of Bulldozer's song IX express a rebellious sentiment against authority figures, including gods, creatures, and men. The singer claims a sense of belonging and ownership of his place and life, surrounded by his brothers who live united. The line "the master has lost his pet" may refer to a god or authoritative figure who has lost control over the singer and his group.
The group takes pride in having provoked a disaster and revels in the destruction of the master's ruins, expressing their hatred for gods, creatures, and men. The singer's group believes in individual freedom and rejects the lies and hypocrisy of religion, rejecting the label of "demon" often used to condemn them. The repeated phrase "we do hate gods" emphasizes the strong animosity towards any form of authority or control.
Overall, the lyrics to IX express a sense of liberation and anti-authoritative rebellion, rejecting any form of control or manipulation from those in power.
