Lyrics
-------------------------------------------
Unrest for melancholy men
Who wallow in dismay
For Azrael, the lone Butcher
Was born upon this day
To steer us all toward Satan's ends
And lead us all astray
There'll be absence of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
There'll be no more comfort or joy
In affluence, O Azrael
Unholy babe was born
And laid in modern hospital
Upon this wretched morn
The which His Father Abaddon
Imparted him with scorn
Toward man, no more comfort or joy
Comfort and joy
There'll be no more comfort or joy
Future unelected wraith sent to destroy
to destroy
Rejoice! It's man's terminus!
Reveal! Vatican's accomplice!
Rejoice! Mankind Azrael destroy!

Lyrics
----------------------------------------------------
Earthen kings of modern world are
Bearing gifts they traverse afar
O'er region union, human communion
(To) offer up man's new czar
Born a king, a phantom arcane
Crowned with blood of mortals he's slain
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign
The course of man discloses its plight
Azrael is exalted this night
Scourge the earth, crowned king from birth
Quell creature imprint, decreed to smite
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb
Glorious now behold Him (Azrael) arise
King betrays those who crowned him with lies!
Gnashing, Failing, Trembling, Wailing
Shake the earth's core with their (man's) cries!

O come, O come, Earth's future lies in Hell
And all will worship Azrael
Who reigns in exaltation here
And whispers siren's call in man's ear
Rejoice!!!!!!
Rejoice!!!!!!
O Azrael
Shall come to thee, deliver man to hell
O come, Thou Rod of Satan, free
Cleanse earth from man's tyranny
In dreamstate, unaware you enslave
And draw Man closer to the grave
Rejoice!!!!!!
Rejoice!!!!!!
Man's on its way to hell
and helpless under Azrael
O come, Thou hailstorm cast Thy net of fear
On spirits by Thine advent here
Assemble swirling sands to erase,
With death’s dark shadows, man's whole earthen trace!
Rejoice!!!!!!
Rejoice!!!!!!
Man's on its way to hell
and helpless under Azrael

Just in time for the holiday season, Hate Eternal bass maverick J.J. Hrubovcak vomits forth Death Metal Christmas - Hellish Renditions Of Christmas Classics, a twistedly unholy rendition of some of the seasons darkest hymns.
Composed and produced by J.J. with vocals and artwork, by brother/Monstrosity throat Mike Hrubovcak, Death Metal Christmas - Hellish Renditions Of Christmas Classics was engineered by Hate Eternal mastermind Erik Rutan and J.J., mixed and mastered by Brian Elliott all at Mana Recording Studios in St. Petersburg, Florida and boasts five deformed Christmas classics.
Far from a campy holiday metal record, Christmas - Hellish Renditions Of Christmas Classics comes replete with updated arrangements, blast beats, double bass drum battery, hellbound guitar solos and new lyrics with a purpose. A death metal record first and Christmas album second, the themes of the hymns were used as a baseline for the music and can mostly be heard in the right channel. Everything else was built around the theme - solo sections, intros, outros, harmonies, etc. It was very important from the start that this album not be a joke, but a serious record that could survive outside of the Christmas season and thus the resulting symphony of sickness.
Since many hymns written ages ago are dark in nature, they were obvious concept choices. The lyrics have been altered to portray a possible future outcome to mankind’s current path and focus on Azrael, the angel of death in some Islam, Sikhism and Hebrew lore. The story follows a child (Azrael) born to a wealthy family heavily involved in politics throughout the generations. The child is not named Azrael but is infused with its spirit and is predestined by Abaddon (the Destroyer) to cleanse the earth of man though he does not know it yet. Azrael is never in the public eye nor is he ever elected to any position but is heavily involved in the family business of politics. He develops concepts for solutions to many of the world’s problems and seduces world leaders into designating him the de facto authority on most major issues. The world leaders implement his "solutions" over the years as he slowly awakens to his own lust for power. He is so adept at manipulating men that they crown him king either in the public eye or behind the scenes. Once this king has total authority, he betrays the world leaders who realize that they’ve been misled for years. After systematically eliminating opposition, he turns on the entire human race. At this point, Azrael is fully self-actualized and carries out acts of suffering and death throughout the world in a way never before witnessed by mankind.
