Might be a proximity to Jersey thing not sure ;)

Thanks for the links. Not too familiar with the genre. Fun to read background info on these lyrics, songs and bands.
 
A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain't even close
There's no need to waste your prayers on me
You better mark my words 'cause I'm history, yes indeed
You might beg for mercy to get by
But I'd rather tear this thorn from my side
'Cause I won't be the one left behind
Can't be king of the world if you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be king of the world if you're slave to the grind
They swallowed their daggers by turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I'm sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

.. and yeah, thing about singer Bach not allowing objectification of women in his bands vids and the above had me a listener to Monkey Business, the album’s explosive opening track and its first single. It also uncorks one of metal’s greatest all-time vocal performances, with Bach smoothly alternating between glass-breaking howls, a sleazy staccato and operatic highs that reverberate for days.
