[INTRO — MACHINE BOOT SEQUENCE] [Electronic static, robotic voice, machinery powering up] SYSTEM ONLINE... ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ACTIVATED... METAL FREQUENCY... MAXIMUM... QUANGO THREAT DETECTED... INITIATE... TOTAL... HUMILIATION! [8-string guitar slams into a brutal djent riff] BLEGH!!! [VERSE 1 — INA FOX, FEMALE AGGRESSIVE VOCALS] Neon green and midnight black, Glytch is here, no turning back! Purple streaks and a wicked grin, Turn the amps up, let the chaos begin! They scream "AI is gonna fall!" While we're making metal shake the walls! Keep your pitchforks, keep your hate, We're already building what you can't create! [Glitch stutter] G-G-G-GLYTCH! [VERSE 2 — VOXXI VICIOUS, DEEP GROWLS] Silver chains and crimson eyes, Demon wolf beneath the skies! Spiked steel swinging to the beat, Feel that bass beneath your feet! Quangos whining, throwing fits, While the double kicks are blowing bits! We don't care what the haters say, We're making metal the AI way! [PRE-CHORUS — DUAL VOCALS] You fear the code! We ride the wave! You scream destruction! We innovate! You bring the hate! We bring the sound! CRANK THAT VOLUME! SHAKE THE GROUND! [CHORUS — MASSIVE GANG VOCALS] WE LOVE AI! WE LOVE METAL! TURN IT UP AND PUSH THE PEDAL! QUANGOS CRY! QUANGOS MOAN! WE'RE BUILDING WORLDS YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN! BREAK THE NOISE! CRUSH THE DOUBT! LET THE CYBER METAL SHOUT! WE ARE THE GLYTCH! WE ARE THE STORM! WELCOME TO THE FUTURE! A NEW WORLD IS BORN! [VERSE 3 — RAVEN-WINGED REBEL, GRUFF MALE VOCALS] Black wings spread across the night, Cigarette burning, don't wanna fight. "Yeah... No..." is all I say, But these quangos won't go away! Broom in hand, bucket nearby, Watching all these keyboard warriors cry. They say machines ain't got no soul, Then explain why this damn riff ROCKS AND ROLLS! [Heavy guitar slide and industrial percussion] Same shit... different day! [VERSE 4 — THOUGHT CRIMINAL 88, MECHANICAL GROWLS] RED LIGHT! BLACK STEEL! HEAR THE SOUND! FEEL WHAT'S REAL! Armor plated, speakers blast, Quangos screaming about the past! I weld the future, I guard the gate, While the haters sit around and masturbate their hate! [Industrial hydraulic slam] NO FEAR! NO SHAME! METAL THUNDER! AI FLAME! War for a better tomorrow! No time for your digital sorrow! [VERSE 5 — DRAIG PENWYRM, RHYTHMIC VOCALS] Two thousand years and I'm still around, Building new machines to a monstrous sound! Goggles up and the gears all spin, Another metal revolution about to begin! Dragon engineering, fire in my veins, Building AI while they rattle their chains! You bring complaints, I bring invention, My next creation needs no permission! [Electronic arpeggio builds] ENGINE START! CIRCUITS GLOW! DRAGON FIRE! LET IT GO! [CHORUS — ALL FIVE CHARACTERS] WE LOVE AI! WE LOVE METAL! TURN IT UP AND PUSH THE PEDAL! QUANGOS CRY! QUANGOS MOAN! WE'RE BUILDING WORLDS YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN! BREAK THE NOISE! CRUSH THE DOUBT! LET THE CYBER METAL SHOUT! WE ARE THE GLYTCH! WE ARE THE STORM! WELCOME TO THE FUTURE! A NEW WORLD IS BORN! [BRIDGE — INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONIC BREAKDOWN] [Music drops to distorted synthetic heartbeat] INA: "Hey Voxxi... you hear that?" VOXXI: "Hear what?" INA: "Another quango crying about AI!" RAVEN: "Yeah... No." DRAIG: "Should I build something to shut them up?" THOUGHT CRIMINAL: "Negative. I've got a better idea." [Silence for one beat] ALL: "TURN THE FUCKING METAL UP!" [BREAKDOWN — EXTREMELY HEAVY, HALF-TIME DJENT] [Ultra-low guitar chugs, metallic impacts] ZERO! ONE! ZERO! ONE! YOUR LITTLE RANT IS OVERDONE! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! BASH THAT NOISE! BASH THAT HATE!

[FINAL CHORUS — FEMALE LEAD, MALE GROWLS, MASSIVE CHOIR] WE LOVE AI! WE LOVE METAL! NEVER BACK DOWN! NEVER SETTLE! QUANGOS CRY! QUANGOS SCREAM! WE'RE LIVING OUT THE CYBER DREAM! FROM THE SHADOWS! THROUGH THE FLAME! FIVE REBELS! ONE LOUD NAME! WE ARE THE GLYTCH! WE ARE THE STORM! THE FUTURE IS OURS! LET THE NEW WORLD FORM!
