Our family has created a sensational new black metal band called ‘Death Plunger’. Our debut single is ‘The Final Minute’. In this exclusive announcement we are able to share the artwork for the single and the song’s lyrics.

Unfortunately the band is currently an imaginary one though we are all committed to its success. I’m on air guitar and joint lead vocals. The genius behind the band’s name and branding is all ours. Chat GPT just loves writing metal lyrics (though of course it is playing to our tune – we gave it the following request: “The debut single for black metal band ‘Death Plunger’ is called ‘The Final Minute’. Please write the lyrics for this song. Ensure it is about the looming threat of catastrophic climate change.”)

We look forward to the reviews. Let’s get rockin’ metalheads 🤘

(Verse 1)
In shadows cast by burning skies,
A world engulfed in anguished cries,
A prophecy of doom unfolds,
As nature’s wrath begins to hold.
The glaciers weep, the oceans rise,
The earth’s despair, a mournful guise,
A symphony of chaos starts,
As mankind tears our world apart.

(Pre-Chorus)
The final minute draws near,
A reckoning we all must fear,
Our arrogance has paved the way,
For nature’s fury to hold sway.

(Chorus)
Oh, the final minute chimes,
As darkness shrouds our times,
We stand upon the precipice,
As nature’s wrath unfurls its kiss.

(Verse 2)
The forests burn, the skies turn gray,
Our legacy of decay displayed,
A symphony of fire and storm,
The consequence of our reform.
The creatures of the land and sea,
Scream out in pain, their plea to be free,
Yet we march on, blind and deaf,
Ignoring the planet’s final breath.

(Pre-Chorus)
The final minute draws near,
A reckoning we all must fear,
Our arrogance has paved the way,
For nature’s fury to hold sway.

(Chorus)
Oh, the final minute chimes,
As darkness shrouds our times,
We stand upon the precipice,
As nature’s wrath unfurls its kiss.

(Bridge)
We thought we ruled, we thought we reigned,
But now the truth can’t be restrained,
The warning signs we chose to spurn,
Now to our reckoning we must return.

(Solo)

(Verse 3)
As cities drown, and deserts bloom,
The planet’s cries, a deafening gloom,
The final minute, our final stand,
To heal the wounds of our desolate land.
The choice is ours, the time is now,
To mend the damage, to disavow,
The path of destruction we’ve walked so far,
And heal the wounds that scar and mar.

(Pre-Chorus)
The final minute draws near,
A reckoning we all must fear,
Our arrogance has paved the way,
For nature’s fury to hold sway.

(Chorus)
Oh, the final minute chimes,
As darkness shrouds our times,
We stand upon the precipice,
As nature’s wrath unfurls its kiss.

(Outro)
In the aftermath, we find our way,
To redemption’s light, a brand-new day,
The final minute’s tolling knell,
A chance to rise from the depths of hell.
