TAMTRUM is perpetually on the road for an unholy quest to summon more victims. Their ultra-powerful frantic live performances receive the unanimity of outstanding votes: TAMTRUM are above all a live band! And the use of fire-blowing, strip-tease shows and other fluo-chemical performances on stage reinforce their forceful, uncompromising and decadent image.
Before setting off to play some major European festivals, TAMTRUM still managed the time to release the «Versus» split-album with the other French band LOK-8.
In 2005, the duo was joined by old colleague Fixhead, and the TAMTRUM monster was once again locked in the studio to work on a new album. The band also made some eye-catching blitzkrieg appearances on several compilations that propelled TAMTRUM onto the playlists of every club across the world with their mega-hit «Le Son De La Pluie».
With a punk spirit, a «sex, drugs’n industrial» attitude, a dark goth/metal look, harsh elektro sequences, distorted screams and locomotive drum patterns TAMTRUM is here to shake your ass! Described by many as the most promising and fastest rising French underground talent of the moment, TAMTRUM often gets compared music-wise to a band like HOCICO with a rather MANSONesque attitude… Their music and lyrics (in French & English) are morbid, disturbing, nasty, sick, noisy and per definition hyper-danceable.
Their next hi-energy and merciless aggressive assault is planned for release in the spring of 2006 on the band’s new label Alfa Matrix, before the band starts another fucking bloody and shocking tour on speed across Europe… Keep the fainthearted kids secluded at home – heads will fall and clubs will burn, burn, burn!

Pervert Inc.
Tamtrum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To lay a kid (that will suck on their tits)
I don't wanna live in a world where men just want
Their dicks sucked (and suck on tits)
Am I PORNO? Hooo mummy, tell me why you made me like this
Am I PERVERSE? Why does this bag between my legs puke everyday?
Am I PORNO? (And if) I'm the offspring of a transient perversion (long gone)
I don't wanna think that all motherfucking pervs
Have been laid by tamed chicks
I don't wanna think that the magnificence of women
Is the offspring of these (sour-stinged sex maniacs!)
Am I PORNO? Hooo mummy, tell me why you made me like this
Am I PERVERSE? Why does this bag between my legs puke everyday?
Am I PORNO? (And if) I'm the offspring of a transient perversion (long gone)
Am I ALONE? Why does this world point his finger at me (when I am)?
(Your eyes are nasty and your tongue runs like a snake)
My father's sperm runs into my veins
Hey, God, look what we've become
A herd of perverts, craving for sex and blood
Hey, God, look what we've become
My world is made of mellow scents
Blood, cum and glitter for a sexual cocktail
Some people need to see what they can't show
Some people need to show what they can't see inside themselves
All women in this world are awfully hot!
All men in this world are fucking pigs!
The song "Pervert Inc." by Tamtrum presents a critical message about sexual objectification and gender stereotypes. The lyrics start out by expressing a desire not to be in a world where women are reduced to their biological function as child-bearers and men are reduced to their sexual desires. The lyrics suggest that society is overly focused on sexual desires and objectification, which has become a pervasive problem. The chorus then poses a series of questions about whether the singer is a product of this perversion, and whether he is alone in feeling this way. The lyrics suggest that the way society views sexuality and gender roles is fundamentally flawed and harmful.
The tone of the song is intense, with harsh electronic beats and angry vocals that convey the frustration and anger of the singer. The lyrics also contain elements of nihilism, with lines like "hey God, look what we've become" suggesting a sense of hopelessness and despair about the state of the world. However, there is also a sense of defiance and determination in the lyrics, with the singer questioning gender roles and societal norms.
Overall, Pervert Inc. is a powerful critique of the way society views sexuality and gender roles, and the way that sexual objectification harms both men and women. The song challenges listeners to question their assumptions and beliefs about sexuality, and to recognize the harm that objectification and stereotypes can cause.

(Your eyes are nasty and your tongue runs like a snake)
My father's sperm runs into my veins
Someone sees me as disgusting and animalistic solely for my sexual identity. I cannot change my identity because it's been passed down to me genetically.
Hey, God, look what we've become
A herd of perverts, craving for sex and blood
Hey, God, look what we've become
Humanity has devolved into a species obsessed with sex and violence, and this is something that wasn't created by us alone.
My world is made of mellow scents
Blood, cum and glitter for a sexual cocktail
Some people need to see what they can't show
Some people need to show what they can't see inside themselves
My sexual identity is a part of who I am, and I will not hide it. Some people have to show others what they cannot see within themselves, and that is a beautiful thing.
All women in this world are awfully hot!
All men in this world are fucking pigs!
This is a sarcastic way to express frustration with societal perceptions that women only exist for sexual pleasure and that men are the sole perpetuators of sexual violence.
