3)T.H.C. (The Human Cell) was a crossover band from Nymburk, Czech Republic. Founded in may 1998 by Lukáš Pilař (guitar), Vladimir Petrov (drums), Vojta Říha (bass) and Maksi'Mike (vocal). All of them were experienced by different musical projects from the past.
Music of T.H.C. is based on hardcore with rap and shouted vocals and can be compared to Rage Against the Machine. In the winter of 1999 they recorded their first demo by themselves at home. Increased interest in the band led to more concert appearances in central Bohemia.
As time progressed the band started to implement more different styles to their hard music mix such as hip-hop and funk. They labeled their music as "east-side rap-cross". The lyrics in English draw the attention to social and political problems.
In december 2000 the band entered the Hostivař studio in Prague to record their first EP "Ready for Rebellion", released in january 2001 by themselves. More positive response to their new record led to more prestigious gigs. Years 2001 and 2002 were filled with many performances but in the beginning of 2003 an internal problems appeared and later that year the band dissolved or maybe actually transformed to Mindway.
Mike is now the leader of Mindway, Vojta plays with Radim Hladík's Blue Effect, Lukáš is doing sound engineering and Vladimir had his own musical projets.

Mr. Self Destruct
T.H.C. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's something no-one else can see, I've gotta end my misery.
Self destruct, self destruct, I said I'm gonna.
Self destruct, fill my head with a piece of lead.
Had enough of this recession, their bullshit caused my depression.
Their ways make me feel small, now I'm gonna end it all.
Count-down's over this is it, my life is spent it's now I quit.
Done my best to aid this caper, one less name on a piece of paper.
.. blow my brain
