about

The B side of 7th Victim's 40th Anniversary single release

lyrics

Town of Hellfire, Eternal Fear/ What happens in Centralia better stay here
Only place we ever known/ Pack all our mem’ries, abandon our home

I live in a shack on the wrong side the tracks- watching smoke pour from the fissures and cracks
The last outbound train, em’nent domain, the devil and Nature will take what remains

“I love Centralia but it hates me back”/ Mother Earth is on the attack
Graffiti Highway- better not drive/ Route 61 will eat you alive
Something smoldering underground/ workin’ a coal mine goin' down down down
Feel the heat. See the glow. /How did it start? nobody knows

I live in a shack on the wrong side the tracks- watching smoke pour from the fissures and cracks
The last outbound train, em’nent domain, the devil and Nature will take what remains

Little boy, little boy, suppers’s on the stove. Momma holler down into an empty hole.

I live in a shack on the wrong side the tracks- watching smoke pour from the fissures and cracks
The last outbound train, em’nent domain, the devil and Nature will take what remains
I live in a shack on the wrong side the tracks- watching smoke pour from the fissures and cracks
The last outbound train, em’nent domain, the devil and Nature will take what remains


it’s the town that never dreams/ Silent mountain swallows your screams
Sulphur and flames, noxious fumes/ a portal to Hades in your basement room

I live in a shack on the wrong side the tracks- watching smoke pour from the fissures and cracks
I live in a shack on the wrong side the tracks- watching smoke pour from the fissures and cracks
The last outbound train, em’nent domain, the devil and Nature will take what remains

about

7th Victim Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

When you think of Philadelphia-based electronic acts, only one name comes to mind.
That name is Void Vision.
But sometimes they're not available. For those times, there's 7th Victim.
Formed in Stocksbridge, UK in 1976, 7th Victim has played shows with Joy Division, The Clash, The KLF, and Depache Mode.. Except for when they haven't. Which they didn't. Why are you still reading this?
