DOOMSDAY PROFIT gets brash and belligerent on "Terror Cycle"

We were born into an age of endless wars, an ebb and flow of violence that has been a constant hum in the background of our lives as far as we can remember. The looming threat of war with Iran has already drawn eerie — if unsurprising parallels — to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq two decades ago.

And so as history repeats itself, Doomsday Profit offers a new song with an old theme: "Terror Cycle."

Bassist Ryan Sweeney adds to the song's impact with a lyric video, and notes, "For the lyric visualizer we wanted to reinforce the concept that humanity is, has been, and — unless we make a global collective effort to stop it — will always be in violent conflict with itself. The collage of public domain art, photos, and videos depicts our species' long history of violence across the ages and across the globe. Let it be a reminder that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it."

Culled from Doomsday Profit's forthcoming self-titled album, "Terror Cycle" is the record's most overtly aggressive, with an unsubtle polemic aimed at humanity's compulsion for violence thrust forward by stabbing riffs that add shades of noise rock, D-beat, and even surf to the band's unorthodox brew of sludge and doom.
