A New World:
As soon as the dust settles, you can see
A new world in place of where the old one had been
Your skin is crawling with dry, crusted mud
And your naked feet are wet in a pool of blood
And the whistle of the wind in your ears is so loud
That your memories have blown up in a mushroom cloud
And as your eyes accomodate, there appears by the meadow
A brute like a bear with a long, dark shadow
And you violently shake over what you have seen
As you remember the tale of the Altered Beast
Altered Beast 1:
I think I see
An altered beast
By the tree
Take a peek
If you would dare
Half made of man
Half of bear
He came from underneath
I met an altered beast
I think I see
An altered beast
By the creek
Altered face and altered skin
Altered born of altered kin
He came from underneath
I met an altered beast
I think I see
An altered beast
In my dreams
In a dream, you can wake in your bed without pain
But know with conviction, it's here you'll remain
I met an altered beast
With an unsteady gait, the creature moves forth
Feel his rhythm as he tramples the earth
And you stare at his figure, stupefied in dread
As his gaze locks to yours and bores into your head
And the pulse is so loud on the inside of your brain
And you find that your feet are stuck to the terrain
Closer he comes, making dust out of stone
Forsaken you are, and what's more, all alone
I think I see
An altered beast
By the tree
I met an altered beast
Alter Me 1:
For all it's revulsion, and warp, and taboo
A part of you wants to be altered too
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered Beast 2:
And now dear listener, we crossed the foe
The foe with the weapons and heavy cargo
I am the sabre, the catapult, and bat
The top of the food chain in my habitat
I am the demon bearing misery and fear
And I spy you convulsing from way over here
I could pull you apart or I could cut you to pieces
I could make you bleed crimson tears from the lesions
But the thing that I lust for and the thing that I'll get
Is to take over your body and to be in your head
I see you
I want to
Break your head
Crusty bread
I won't quit
If you quit
See to it
That you slip
I see you
I want to
Seize your brain
I'd like to put it in my head
To me you are game, just a sweet bit of meat
Come closer and drink malevolence from my teat
Tell me would you honestly
Dare to face up next to me
Sugar coated pills won't keep
You from feeling so woozy
I am an Altered Beast
What harm could a mere mortal like you do?
I am the golden wolf and you are caribou
My left hand is a mouth and my right is a fork
I will pull you apart like a butcher pulls pork
I see you
I want to
Make a waste
Of your home
I won't leave
I might tease
I'll be there
Await your death, oh
I see you
I want to
Seize your brain
I'd like to put it in my head
I see you're nervous, I see you're fumbling
Come hither my friend, my stomach is rumbling
Tell me would you honestly
Dare to face up next to me
Sugar coated pills won't keep
You from feeling so woozy
Tell me would you honestly
Dare to face up next to me
Sugar coated pills won't keep
You from feeling so woozy
I am an Altered Beast
Alter Me 2:
Your dumb human head is full of naiveté
Your impending fate, is to be one with me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Now we cross to our friend on the monster's plate
In time he will turn and reincarnate
Altered Beast 3:
I know I see
An altered beast by the tree
Find a place to hide
Where I could steal a peep
Look to the sky
And I see angels weep
I see you
And I can see right through
I see you
And I will take you to my Altered World
Nine white teeth
(Nine white teeth, my gums bequeathed)
My gums bequeathed
(Nine white teeth, my gums bequeathed)
Hair on my skin
And I'm feeling beastly
Feel it trickle in
A new life with me
I see you
And I can see right through
I see you
And I will take you to my Altered World
Nine white teeth
(Nine white teeth, my gums bequeathed)
My gums bequeathed
(Nine white teeth, my gums bequeathed)
Nine pearl fangs, a true sign that you are deformed
Once a man, now a monstrosity reborn
I see you
I can see right through
I see you
I can see right through
I see you
I can see right through
I see you
Take you to my Altered World
I am an Altered Beast
Alter Me 3:
No more consternation, no longer insalubrious
The beast's DNA has dug into your nucleus
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered Beast 4:
You don't feel a thing in your sinuous head
No love, no pain, and no fear of dread
Your apathetic dispassion has made you distort
And your savoir faire is to kill for sport
You'd wound a small creature and watch it wiggle
And lust to feel so bad, that you'd force a giggle
So crooked and curled is your point of view
There is no other creature more malicious than you
I'm completely satisfied
My other life I will not miss
An altered beast until I die
And I will not give up on this
Never!
True, I went to hell and back
But it was so I could be this
An altered beast until the end
And I will not give up on this
Never!
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
Altered Beast within me
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
You're ruthless, and savage, and sadistic, and vindictive
And you find human flesh is incredibly addictive
But the longer you live, and the longer you kill
There's a void that gets harder, and harder to fill
The void that you feel within would suggest
That a canyon has opened up inside of your chest
And whatever you do, there's no turning back
You've reached the end of the cul-de-sac
Emptiness inside of me
And hollowness all around me
I cut myself to see it bleed
And now I don't feel anything
Never!
Insincere and trivial
The world is void of all meaning
And gone is all that's visceral
And now I don't feel anything
Never!
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
Altered Beast within me
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
Altered Beast within me
I don't feel heinous
I don't feel no pain
I don't feel nothing
I don't feel anything
The sole thing that will make your void obsolete
Is to find someone new, some sapid fresh meat
Altered beast
Alter me
Altered beast
Alter me
I think I see
An altered beast inside me, oh!
I am an altered beast
Life/Death:
Are you you? Are you me?
Or someone in between?
You lost track inside the labyrinth
You lost your will and your sanity
You certainly lost your humanity
In life, you have taken much more than you're worth
Now it's your turn to give back to the Earth
May you return to the ground and ossify
It's time for you to die, die, die
I had no idea there existed a band quite like this.
You’re missing out bud
I hope you have explored their discography quite a lot by now
"Why are you like this?"
*"I AM AN ALTERED BEAST"*
I appreciate the beast having 9 fangs
2:26 is one of the best moments from this album, that synth tone is so grimy
What's cool is that it's also repeated later as lyrics at 14:19 ("I'm completely satisfied, my other life I will not miss," etc.), it's the Altered Beast speaking but the protagonist doesn't understand it until they become corrupted too.
@@maxd.9311 Holy shit
@@maxd.9311 holy fuck
@@maxd.9311 holy smokes
@@maxd.9311 holy god
I wish they’d have released the tracks in this form for Spotify reasons
I know, right. I love how the songs all flow together, and spotify's shuffle just ruins that magic
Wish there was a way to change that (or alter it lmao) on specific playlists or sumn
@@jus_squee the title alter me is a direct message to the band
@@jus_squee I was joking lol sorry
@@memondayz download Brave, play it on youtube. I know, spotify audio is great but this method is free
up by tree altering and by it well let's just say my beast
So my headphones broke and now they can only play in Mono and it sounds like the speakers are in another room but holy crap THIS GOES SO HARD WITH BROKEN HEADPHONES
relatable, first game I ever beat in the arcade
The best King Gizz album
indeed
aaa ive been looking for a MOTU part 1 video for so long

I WAS LITERALLY ABOUT TO SEND U THIS AHAHAHA
this is the best chapter of Murder Of The Universe, right next to Lord Of Lightning Vs Balrog
They’re all amazing
These are the Three of Perfect Pair storyline of Murder of The Universe trilogy
@@murpi338 she is susceptible he is impossible they have their cross to share??

Eres un héroe sin capa
Saludos desde México:)

It would be cool if you could add the chapters for each individual track in the description, thanks for uploading!
You got it
Love it! 😍🎶💖
love that art
You're my saviour
Is this every altered beast song put together?
Yes, it's the entire first part of the album :)
Hell yeah dude
Cranked
Yo, that's SCP-682
fuck yeahh!!
Is this Hawkwind?
not sure, but glad there’s a Warriors fan on here aswell!
The tale of the altered beast is about zombies, no one can convince me otherwise
@Joshua Heffernan I mean, the album is supposed to be a tale, not a real story. Completely irrelevant to the poster's point.
that being said, while the lyrics can match a variety of mythical, predatory creatures that prey upon and transform other humans such as vampires, werewolves, wendigos, zombies as mentioned previously, and so on. However, I think the altered beast is simply that, a monster that exists in the gizzardverse and described as such in the lyrics. Perhaps resembling the creature we see in the cover art.
@Joshua Heffernan I don’t think robots that throw up and kill everyone and everything are real either
I thought it was about Lord Voldemort and Harry Potter. I am an Altered Beast!
One of the first things she says about the altered beat is that it was “a brute, like a bear with a long dark shadow”
WHERE ARE THE LYRICS CMON OP.
Kexp live version is better
all this narrative...
imagine they play altered beast with leah senior doing narration, like they did with lord of lightning last year
that would be amazing
@@ninjax9675They did that at Red Rocks last year! I haven't heard the whole thong yet, but it seems pretty cool.
