Chiller (Music Video)

By ARCAIDE Arrangements · Thrash Metal · From the album Arcade Onslaught

(Chiller) Chiller is the twenty second song off Arcade Onslaught, a double album filled with songs with lyrics inspired by old school coin-op arcade games. The song was inspired by the controversial 1986 Exidy coin-op arcade shooter, "Chiller". Chiller was from the same system that brough us Crossbow and Cheyenne (to give perspective). NOTE: This song came before the Death Metal EP "Chiller" that I put together at a later date (and is available here on www.AIMetalRadio.com).

Thank you for listening. I hope you enjoy!

NOTE: The vocal sound in this song reminds me of a certain comic from my youth. I included a bit of a tribute in the lyrics video. Post in the comments whether or not you agree with what I hear. :D

LYRICS:

Crypt doors creak, the torture begins

Steel and bone, the wheel of sin

No redemption, no escape

Trigger finger seals your fate

Screams echo in pixel hell

Blood-soaked coins, the stories they tell

Rack 'em and hack 'em, no mercy tonight

Shoot through the flesh, feed the fright

Chiller’s domain, where madness reigns

Arcade of pain, let loose the chains

Iron maidens, guillotines

Digital death in vivid scenes

Skulls explode in crimson haze

You’re the judge in this killing maze

No score for mercy, no bonus for grace

Just limbs and torment in a haunted place

Laughing ghouls, decaying halls

You’re the monster behind the walls

Pull the lever…

Crush the spine…

Feed the beast…

One quarter at a time…

Rack 'em and hack 'em, pixel genocide

Arcade horror, nowhere to hide

Chiller’s throne, you sit and play

But the game plays you in a darker way

Listen to Chiller
