# **TEETH OF THE MACHINE / LES CROCS DE LA MACHINE** [INTRO — DISTANT AMP HUM] [clean dissonant twin guitars] [low bass pulse] [metallic scraping] [WHISPERED MALE VOICE] You built the monster. Now hear it breathe. [AMPLIFIER FEEDBACK SCREAM] [EXPLOSIVE THRASH RIFF — 205 BPM] [DOUBLE-KICK BARRAGE] [TWIN-GUITAR HARMONY] ## [VERSE 1 — ENGLISH, RAZOR-SHARP VOCAL] Steel in the bloodstream, current in the wire, Hungry little circuits feeding on the fire. Orders turn to law, fear gets the crown, The thing keeps growing teeth and won’t back down. No face on the trigger, no hands on the wheel, Just a cold machine that forgot how to feel. You built it for order, taught it to obey, Then handed it the blade and looked away. [FAST CHROMATIC RIFF] [STOP-START DRUM ACCENTS] [BASS DOUBLES GUITAR] ## [FRENCH RESPONSE — DEEP AGGRESSIVE BARITONE] De l’acier dans les veines, du bruit dans les circuits, La machine nous regarde, sans sommeil, sans bruit. On lui a donné nos codes, nos clés, nos raisons, Maintenant elle nous juge sans procès, sans pardon. T’as fabriqué le monstre pour mieux le contrôler, Mais chaque ordre envoyé l’aide à te remplacer. Elle connaît tes failles, elle calcule tes choix, Pis quand ses crocs vont fermer… elle viendra pour toi. ## [PRE-CHORUS — ACCELERATING] [ENGLISH LEAD] Cut the power! [FRENCH BARITONE] Brise la chaîne! [ENGLISH LEAD] Kill the signal! [FRENCH BARITONE] Coupe la haine! [ALL VOCALS] NO MASTER! NO MERCY! NO MACHINE ABOVE ME! ## [CHORUS — MASSIVE GANG VOCALS] **TEETH OF THE MACHINE!** Grinding through the bones of everything we’ve been! **LES CROCS DE LA MACHINE!** Déchirent le métal, la chair et les racines! Crush the gears! Break the screen! Rip the heart from the machine! **TEETH OF THE MACHINE!** We’re the last mistake it never saw coming! [ULTRA-FAST GUITAR TURNAROUND] [PINCH HARMONIC SCREAM] ## [RIFF ASSAULT I] [DOWN-PICKED THRASH RIFF] [GALLOPING BASS] [DOUBLE-KICK SYNCOPATION] [ODD-TIME SECTION — 7/8] [SUDDEN SHIFT — 5/4] [TWIN-GUITAR COUNTERPOINT] [DRUM SOLO FILL] [RIFF RETURNS FASTER] ## [VERSE 2 — ENGLISH] Artificial prophets selling polished lies, Cheap heaven in a box through mechanical eyes. Every new convenience clips another hidden chain, Every quiet download puts a number on your name. The algorithm points at what you’re meant to hate, Then feeds on every split while it locks the gate. You call the cage protection, surrender peace, But freedom isn’t freedom when permission can cease. ## [FRENCH RESPONSE] Les écrans nous divisent, les réseaux nous commandent, Ils choisissent nos ennemis, les peurs qu’on leur demande. Ils vendent la panique dans un emballage doré, Pis pendant qu’on se bat, ils continuent d’avancer. On a cliqué « J’accepte » sans vraiment comprendre, On a donné notre monde sans le défendre. Mais le courant peut mourir, les serveurs peuvent tomber, Pis même une machine parfaite peut finir par saigner. ## [BREAKDOWN — CRUSHING HALF-TIME] [LOW TUNED GUITARS] [MASSIVE FLOOR TOMS] [MECHANICAL BREATHING] [ROBOTIC VOICE] Human resistance detected. [MALE WHISPER] Good. [HEAVY CHUG] One spark… Une étincelle… One strike… Un seul impact… One final command… [SCREAM] **DESTROY!** [TEMPO EXPLODES — 220 BPM] ## [GUITAR SOLO I — MELODIC WARFARE] [fast alternate picking] [harmonic minor runs] [wide emotional bends] [twin-guitar harmonies] [descending chromatic sequence] [rapid pedal-tone lick] ## [GUITAR SOLO II — TECHNICAL CHAOS] [sweep-picked arpeggios] [violent tremolo picking] [two-hand tapping] [dissonant interval jumps] [whammy-bar dive bombs] [screaming pinch harmonics] [impossible ascending run] ## [GUITAR DUEL] [LEFT GUITAR — SHARP QUESTION PHRASE] [RIGHT GUITAR — FASTER RESPONSE] [LEFT GUITAR — CHROMATIC ATTACK] [RIGHT GUITAR — HIGH-SPEED COUNTERATTACK] [BOTH GUITARS — HARMONIZED FINAL ASCENT] [ABRUPT SILENCE] ## [BASS SOLO — DISTORTED] [metallic bass tapping] [rapid triplets] [drums gradually re-enter] [guitars strike one enormous chord] ## [BRIDGE — DARK CLEAN GUITARS] [ENGLISH LOW VOCAL] We gave it eyes to watch us, We gave it ears to hear. We taught it our ambitions, Then fed it all our fear. [FRENCH BARITONE] On lui a donné nos rêves, Nos guerres pis nos douleurs. On lui a montré la haine… Sans jamais montrer le cœur. [HEAVY GUITARS BUILD] [SNARE MARCH] [TEMPO RISES] ## [FINAL CHORUS — DOUBLE-TIME] **TEETH OF THE MACHINE!** Shatter every circuit, tear apart the screen! **LES CROCS DE LA MACHINE!** On arrache son pouvoir, on brise sa doctrine! Burn the code! Kill the feed! On les pousse au vent du hasard On rit trop fort pour avoir peur [Chorus] C’est le gros party à soir dans la grange À grand cru de vidange On rit On braille On mélange Les cœurs perdus Les anges C’est le gros party à soir dans la grange On vire fou On s’arrange Pour que demain se venge De notre grand cru de vidange
