Final Reckoning


Step right up, ladies and gents,
Watch the starving circus commence!
Buy a rib, buy a thigh,
Guaranteed to make you cry.

FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Fascist fashion disease!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Smile and wheeze!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Corporate sin!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Skin on Skin!

Twist the doll, she won’t complain,
Her spine snaps back like cellophane.
Magazine gospel, fashion pope,
Snort some glitter, hang by a rope.

FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Fascist fashion disease!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Smile and wheeze!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Corporate sin!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Skin on Skin!

Bow your heads, children of skin,
Starvation is salvation, let the purge begin!
Lipstick stigmata, cocaine bread,
Hallelujah! The models are dead!

Starve it! Sell it! Strip it! Sell it!
Snap it! Break it! Bleed it! SELL IT!

FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Fascist fashion disease!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Smile and wheeze!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Corporate sin!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Skin on Skin!

FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Fascist fashion disease!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Smile and wheeze!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Corporate sin!
FLESH MANNEQUIN!  Skin on Skin!

In February 2004, Kevin Sharp was the tour driver for Napalm Death on The Art of Noise tour with Nile, Strapping Young Lad, Dark Tranquillity and The Berzerker. Shane Embury and Sharp were already acquainted, and "some beers, pizza and old vinyl classics by Poison Idea, Black Flag and Systematic Death" renewed their friendship. They decided to start a band together. Embury remembered:

Napalm were on tour with Nile and when the driver had to leave, Kevin Sharp who sang for Brutal Truth, stood in for him. I ended up going back to Chicago with him and we said, "Hey, how come we've never been in a band together? We both loved mid-80's punk, we both loved Poison Idea and Black Flag", so that was the starting point.[2]

They recruited Buzz Osborne of The Melvins on guitar and Napalm Death's Danny Herrera on drums, and recorded their debut Retroactive Abortion (2004) on Mike Patton's Ipecac Recordings.[5] The band replaced Osborne with Danny Lilker for their second album, Poisoned Apple (2008).[6]

Venomous Concept are currently working on material for their third album.[7]
