Owais Vitek Nabi of ''Metalholic'' said that this song is "a nuclear bomb from the heaven. The sheer speed and weight of the riffs make you feel mad with a sense of deranged power. The use of special effects at the intervals of these songs is something that really plays with your head. Listen to it long enough and you will have hallucinations." |

Lyrics
Impaled bodies, impaled souls Treacherous the unknown Skinned alive and left to die Inner fear comes to life Cannibal holocaust Hope is lost, all is lost Cannibal holocaust Hope is lost, all is lost Tribal war... jungle law Innermost... denial Self-inflikt... devour Till nothing remains Cannibal holocaust Hope is lost, all is lost Cannibal holocaust Hope is lost, all is lost Sharpening the spears The fire eaters Even the jungle Wants him dead Snake worshippers Into oblivion Even hell Wants him dead!!! Discorporated, asphyxiated Discolorated skin Retaliation, retribution Join the ministry of filth Hung, drawn and quartered Confluence, emptiness Suicidal scorn The neuro-axis stains Cannibal holocaust Enter the slaughterhouse Cannibal holocaust Enter the slaughterhouse...
