Anyone have the lyrics of "White Power"? Is that really some Nazi stuff ?

Lester Maddox if i am not mistaken was some redneck American so probably Lester Maddox band had some nationalist/Nazism lyrics.

I saw the light, just the other day
when I spoke, I knew what to say
mass confusion is in my brain
am I crazy or am I insane
won't you help me with my head
I don't want to wind up dead
falling star, yeah you falling so bright
won't you help me make it through the night
white power
I grab onto the concrete walls
four by four and their eight feet tall
now here I am, confined to this cell
what did I do to deserve this hell
the end is near I can feel
the people here are so unreal
my only friend is myself
won't you place me back on the shelf
white power
I saw the light, just the other day
when I spoke, I knew what to say
mass confusion is in my brain

won't you help me with my head

white power
Had to protect the good name of one of my favourite American Metal albums. I have no clue what those lyrics mean, but they hardly tie in with "racial purity" or other such bullshit.

that's good but still an odd title . I love that record. One day I will grap one of that LPs. Honestly I can't see why people often describe it as a mediocre hard rock album

Is it me or was this rip made with a recordplayer that doesn't have a steady speed? Or was the record made with out of tune guitars?

I haven't listened to this rip, but I can compare with my own when I come home. Shouldn't be any out-of-tuned guitars on it as far as I remember. Another case of DCS (DislocatedCenterholeSyndrome) maybe?

It's only during the first song, maybe it's a warp in the vinyl. Or maybe I'm just hearing things that aren't really there.
Shit, I'm totally changing my opinion on this album. Two weeks ago I heard one or two songs for the first time and I didn't like it. Then I saw people raving about it in this thread, I downloaded it and I'm hooked!!!
Another one for the wantlist...

This is suprisingly good; I like the cool atmospheric tone. Is their other album similar?

Unfortunately not. "Burning the world live" is just mediocre hard rock with none of the eeriness & originality of "Gothic Lore" left.
