Acridity - For Freedom I Cry

Does anyone have the lyrics for this album? The tracklists for the album on P2P varies from user to user. No one seems to have the correct song titles for every song.

I've got an original of it. The booklet doesn't have all the lyrics for it. I'll tell you, though, that tracks 2 and 3 are in the wrong order. 2 is actually For Freedom I Cry, and 3 is Lethal Idol. They are listed wrong on the actual CD and inlay itself, so that could be the reason for the confusion.

Wow. I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder.

What song begins with the lyrics "Needless suffering...among the dying" or something like that? It's the longest song on the album, I think. That is the best song on there, IMO. But due to the incorrect tracklisting, and absence of lyrics, I don't have the right title (I think).

I've not heard this CD. What's it like?

That track is Denied Right. It's one of only 4 that has the lyrics printed in the booklet. It's listed as track 5 on the CD and on the inlay.

It's Bay Area thrash. Originally recorded in '88, the album didn't see release until '91, which may be why they didn't get much attention, as it sounded a bit dated after the 3 year gap. It's something I'd be willing to bet that you'd like.

I'll have the correct track listing and track times for you in just a bit RF. I'm listening to the disc right now, and comparing it against about 3 different track listings I've found, the one on the inlay and CD itself, and the few songs that have lyrics in the booklet.

Whoever pressed this thing screwed up royally. The inlay and CD does NOT match the tracklist so far!

They are a Texan based thrash metal band. They sound a lot like old Metallica, in my opinion, especially in the vocals, which sound a lot like old James Hetfield.

I remember reading when the album was recorded, some band members were only about 15-16 years old. Is this correct?

Besides "Denied Right", what other songs have the lyrics printed? Just curious.

Here is the correct track list and track times:

1. Beyond 6:41
2. The Verdict 3:32
3. Exist In Misery 3:38
4. For Freedom I Cry 5:43
5. Countdown To Terror 5:19
6. Denied Right 7:10
7. Lethal Idol 4:27
8. Nothing Held Sacred 3:55
9. Vigilante 4:32

The only songs that have lyrics printed are Denied Right, Beyond, Lethal Idol, and For Freedom I Cry.

Kind of weird how they would print lyrics for only half the songs. Kreator's Coma of Souls booklet is like that, too.

But yeah, the track lengths seem to match the song titles I knew (song title was in the lyrics). Thanks! This should clear up a lot of the confusion.

The CD and inlay only had tracks 1, 8, and 9 listed correctly! They screwed everything else up. I knew it was off, but not how badly until today!

As for how old they were, they look quite young from the picture inside the booklet. You could very well be right on their ages.
