Dear Reader 00:50
What gives your life purpose? What gives you fulfilment? Do all we have in this life is just the stillness of death? We are nothing but remorse and regret; we are nothing but bags of bone and flesh. But how can I comprehend such a bleak existence?
2.
Do you not see the shimmering vacuity of the human experience? Do you not see the disparaging lucidity of the human enigma? Enter the fucking void.
3.
Chaos reigns, pain ensues, depression sets in but it's overdue. The world is cold, the world is bleak, the world has no purpose for me. I've been dying since the day I was born, one step closer to the fucking tomb. We're all dead from the moment we're born, closer to what we perceive as our doom. Destitute, vapid souls, lingering morality; we are dead, we are dead. Is this heaven or is this hell? Fuck you all, fuck this place. Anger rises, zoetic disgrace.
4.
To live is to suffer and to suffer is to understand. Searching for meaning is meaningless. There's no controlling of unconscious feelings, reprised hopes masked in faith, concealing. Death come quick. Born on religion, and false moral standards Raised up on dreams of achievement and power. No darkness shrivels the mind, In the end nothingness is divine. We are nothing. We are nothing. We are nothing.
5.
So why prolong the inevitable? If I'm going to die, let me die. Duality, equivocal, what's a reason to stay alive? And I leave here my manifesto, my digusted view of the world. And I leave this suicide note, so you can learn from what I've told: Love is useless, and hate is divine. Faith is pointless, with no gods design. Emotion is a fucking disease. We are despots of what we perceive. Let the world burn, let it crumble and fall like our useless bodies and our trifling demise. Embrace your hate, embrace evil, embrace death. Embrace your fate, accept defeat, there is nothing left. Nothing left for me.

about

The Hanged Man is the critically acclaimed debut EP from Louisville, KY band Pissed On. It imbues the musical veracity of a wide range of metal, punk, and hardcore. Decibel Magazine scored this "grindcore dossier" a 7/10, complimenting the genre experimentation, vocal work, and intense grind; Metal Injection scored it a 9/10 saying "...The Hanged Man certainly marks Pissed On as a band that should be watched and listened to repeatedly. There’s something even more sinister lurking beneath this surface and I can’t wait to see the beast’s black underbelly."; New Noise Magazine gave it a 10/10 saying "...What Pissed On have unleashed in The Hanged Man is truly spectacular. Not just in a superb blend of instrumental works that reflects various tones, attitudes, and structure, but that also transforms the emotions of the mind... [they] will surely be remembered for putting out one of the most devastating records of this year."
