Xysma - Why am I I ?

― Hesus Salín

Xysma was Finnish Grindcore/Goregrind/Death Metal/Death 'n' Roll/Retro Rock band found in 1988, at Naantali. The band has been openly granted as the FIRST EVER Grindcore band from Finland. Originally named as Repulse, the band recorded their first demo "On a Cartrip to Sweden" in 1987. The Band was later named Xysma and under their new name, they released their legendary second demo "Swarming of the Maggots" in 1989. In 1990 they got signed to Comeback record company and they released their first EP "Above the Mind of Morbidity" in the same year. By then, Xysma had had more Death Metal influences to their music and the grindcore blasts decreased and the speed slowed down. Later that year they released a 7-inch "Fata Morgana" through American Seraphic Decay label. 1991 ,Xysma recorded their first full-length "Yeah", which was released by the old ComeBack label and recorded in the famous Swedish Sunlight Studios in Stockholm. This album introduced a original mix of Heavy/Death metal/psychedelic rock riffs in the vein of Black Sabbath and occasional Grindcore blasting. Therefore, Xysma can be considered the ACTUAL PIONEER OF DEATH 'N' ROLL, a style , which was later familiarized by Entombed in their 1993 "Wolverine Blues" album. Their second album "The First and Magical"'93 continued loosely the same musical paths as their former album, but now with less Grindcore and Death Metal influences. The name of their second album was sort of a sign of their major changes to be come. the third full-length, 1994's "Deluxe",showed the last signs of Grindcore blasts and Death 'n' Roll. "Lotto" of 1996 presented Xysma's whole new style, Retro-rock. The old days had been left behind for good. After their last album "Girl on the Beach" of 1998 the band split-up. When the ex-guitarist Toni Stranius ( who also played in Disgrace before his carreer in Xysma ) died in 2006, Xysma did a final reunion gig for the memory of their late guitarist. R.I.P Toni Stranius This is the Opening Track of their first full-length "Yeah" of 1991 ( A Pioneer of Death 'n' Roll ) Another song from the same full-length with some better coverart quality http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8Ve7Qi3TGc Lyrics: Why Am I I ? So many religions making me ponder About heaven & hell or if I'll be born again Is nature the creator or is there a heavenly father god Are we born and do we die? That's all Have you thought about the nearness of death to us all? World's greatest secret And you can unveil it If you want What's the meaning? Why am I I? When it comes to an end we're all small children I was floating in warm darkness And that knowledge, as if somebody was holding my birth in his hands Do I stand at the gates of hell? To be born into this world Truth is so near But then I'm born I lose it again Why am I I?
