The opening lines, "Can you hear the pounding of the drums of war? / Can you feel the power of its call?" set the tone for the rest of the song, which delves deep into the horrors of war. The band uses harsh vocals and heavy guitar riffs to create a sense of urgency and chaos.


The lyrics of Chromatic Death don't hold back in their depiction of violence. Lines like "Madmen screaming, soldiers bleeding / Families shattered, cities burning" show the devastation that war causes. The chorus of the song is particularly haunting, with the band repeating the phrase "Chromatic Death" over and over again. It creates a sense of inevitability, as if there's no way to avoid the horrors of war.
