Toda uma gratidão e autoconfiança entusiasmadas, declaradas após a lista de agradecimentos de “The End Of Silence” (1992):
“The Rollins Band would like to thank all of you who come to the gigs, write in and stay with us every year. We are honoured and we’re looking forward to ruining your hearing for a long time to come“.
Gratidão salpicada de auto-flagelação carinhosa, de reconhecimentos devidos e de agressividade rústica assinada coletivamente pelo Celtic Frost no rabicho do caudaloso encarte de “Monotheist” (2006):
“GRATITUDE
As we lowered our hands to test the frozen ground to be traversed soon again by this group of moribund creatures collectively known as Celtic Frost, we were able to do so only due the amity, grace, and loyalty of those who believed, a few of whom have done so for two decades and more. It is to these faithful, then, who stood by our side these past intricate years, that we consecurate this work. It is no longer ours, it is theirs, and we are proud to bestow it upon them, as we continue to thread our path in their hallowed presence. Those who opposed, those who interfered, those who lacked faith, may they remain in the darkness of this forest called ‘humanity’ and continue to decay in ignorance.
Nihil verum nisi mors“
Desovando gratidão e destilando maldade bravateira ao fim dos agradecimentos de “Serenity In Fire” (2004):
“All magazines and websites who cover us, all radio stations who have the guts to play our music. MTV’s Headbanger’s Ball and Extreme rock show, Viva, Fuse Uranium for playing our videos! All the bands we’ve toured with, and all who are real and are not afraid to tour with us (Fuck the ‘we-want-a-softer-band-to-play-before-us’ bullshit!). This is extreme music if you can’t handle it get the fuck out! Last but for fucking sure not least… all our dedicated fans for making our dreams come true and making Kataklysm who we are today, you are the true voice of metal!
Cheers
The Hyperblasters”
