In the beginning of 2000 they booked a local studio and their first demo “Use Your Fist” was recorded. In March 2001 they went back to the studio to record their second demo “Hate And Anger”. The year turned to 2002 and instead of making a third demo they decided to send their latest recording to a bunch of record-labels. Within a week Rage Of Achilles offered the band to release their demo as a vinyl 7”. The deal also contained a release of one full-length album. A Rage Of Achilles compilation album called “Conquest For The Empire” was out in April, featuring Facebreaker among with other new signings on the label. In September Jonas quit the band due to lack of time. Fortunately they knew a guitar-player named Mika and a line-up change took place. Their vinyl single “Hate And Anger” was released in June 2003. In July the band entered Black Lounge Studios to record their first full-length album “Bloodred hell”. “Bloodred Hell” was released in the beginning of 2004.
Bleed
Facebreaker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will live, and you will bleed
You'll be dead, just a mailer of time
Your pulsing river will soon be mine
A blood flowing stream, the moon turns red
I slake my thirst, as you join with the dead
As you join with the dead
A stream of power
Your blood starts to rain
Your skin turns white
As I bite through your vein
A smell of blood, a smell of fear
I rule the darkness, your end is near
It's my doom, yeah, I'm living in sin
Time has come, let the blood feast begin
A blood flowing stream, the moon turns red
I slake my thirst, as you join with the dead
As you join with the dead
A stream of power
Your blood starts to rain
Your skin turns white
As I bite through your vein
A stream of power
Your blood start to rain
Your skin turns white
As I bite through your vein
