DESCRIPTION:
Bolt Thrower are a British death metal band from Coventry, England. They formed in 1986 and released their first album with Vinyl Solution in 1988. The band then shifted to a new record label, Earache Records, soon becoming one of the best selling bands on that label. Their current label is Metal Blade Records. The band has had a succession of members and have toured Europe, the United States, and Australia.
The band takes its name from a weapon in the popular tabletop strategy game Warhammer Fantasy Battle. The lyrics and artwork of their second and third albums were based on Warhammer Fantasy Battle and its futuristic companion Warhammer 40,000,[citation needed] with much of the art actually being provided by the game's publisher, Games Workshop. The general theme of their lyrics is war and its consequences.

Intimidation you can't take much more,
No compromise - tis time its war.
Take none alive - their battle cry roars,
Nowhwre to hide - this time its war.
Face the fear that grips your mind,
The final conflict - the end of mankind.
Read the hatred deep witin their eyes.
It's your time to die you now realise.
What has occured to man,
Just isn't how you planned,
Enslaved by machinery,
Submit to technology:
Our future lives - Mankinds entity,
Lies in our hands - Together we must face reality.
A ruined world of lost identity,
Technological supremacy.
