Lyrics :
Untimely End :
Terrified, left alone in a world of deceit
Hear my cries, Confused minds
Have driven me insane
Dismayed, Thinking of the day
My body is put to rest
Abandoned, Life goes on
But it's tearing my soul apart
Mortified, seeing my life
As it was in the past
Screaming, They come from all around
To take my mind
Darkness, Obscurity Dementia
Has become my domain
Hopeless, I've been Killed
But my life hasn't ceased again
Fighting endlessly
Living in anxiety
Struggle in another world
No place undisclosed
Death is inside of me
Facing Brutality
I feel I am the only one
Agonized on and on!
Extinguished from life
Vanished from the mortal world
Abstract thoughts of living
The Dead are free to roam
Immortal apparitions,
Evil twisted minds,
Untimely end
Depart me of this life!
Mortified, seeing my life
As it was in the past
Screaming, They come from all around
To take my mind
Darkness, Obscurity Dementia
Has become my domain
Hopeless, I've been Killed
But my life hasn't ceased again
All life's lost and so am i,
So abased I say forever good-bye
Numbness surrounds my destined faith
Time to go beyond the gates!!!
Ancient Black Earth :
Conjuring of evil priests of darkness and unknown lands
Chanting in the dead of night under the darkened moon
Summoning the ghosts ancestors to real
The entities appear, outbreak of evil!
Demons sent from beyond unleashed from the ancient black earth
Your god - will be destroyed in summoning the hordes of fiends
Raising the dead seeking the knowledge
I have found death blasphemy in the vortex!
Waging war across the land
Crush the mortals by their own hands
The Ancient Dead, now to rise
Abyssic hate in their eyes
Evil curse, unleashed by man
Darkness plagues the world
Hell on earth, spirits rise
Summoned from beyond
Desecrating the church of god
There is no orthodox
No salvation for your lives
Prepare to meet the dark.
Funerals Obscure :
Time is digging graves
For the chosen few
We're led through the broken gates
As we mourn into a grave
Born of the dark
The incubus grows
Reality is lost
The struggle unfolds
In a line with strangers
As the eve grows cold
Your blood lies in a casket
But you've been there before
The body grabs your arm
You feel its horrid stare
Evil undisguised
Descends before your eyes
Morbid visions in the dead of night
Haunting you
The world you've known is now a dominion
Coming through
The plane of existence that I've crossed
Through terrorized
The physical state which I've regained,
HORRIFIED!

An ancient and obscure Old School Death Metal Classic.Criminally underrated and deserve lot more praise for their undying, raw, merciless and ominous sound. One of the very few ‘true’ bands who play this ancient and obscure Death Metal from the heart and has done so for over 25 years now. Enjoy this great EP and embrace the darkness. Fist in the air for great SADISTIC INTENT.

[@lexlutor7842]

...for thousand and thousand times!!

[@vitormacielpereira5739]

I agree with you man, they are true warriors of darkness. I went in their Concert here in my hometown, playing as theirselves and as Possessed back in 2007. Pure evil, thanks for posting.

[@toothsnaggleer]

Vitor Maciel Pereira Damn, you are absolutely blessed brother. Seeing them live and being possessed by their sadistic madness is worthy than anything. Hails.

[@reignofterrorzion3211]

Great E P! Seen them during this . Great live band!

[@hectordelacruz5189]

Fuck yes. The epitamy of evil. Those riffs are fucking vicious

[@vincentcervera]

So grateful for all of your comments... I was certainly blessed to have shared life with Rick, Bay and Emilio for 10 plus years. Great memories.

[@markbryant4641]

Did you play on this, Vincent? Well done if so. Very nice ep. I had to drive for five hours this morning and listened to this on the way. It's good in the car. What instrument are you playing on this ep?

[@FTW_666]

Hail VINCE!!! Resurrection is one my favourite EP’s ever, truly killer to see your comment. -Fan from Canada

[@toothsnaggleer]

@Vincent, Thank you so much for sharing. We all of doomed ones also forever grateful, to be exposé to one and only... Sadistic Intent.

[@sophiabranam6875]

I seen you guys open for a buncha great bands way back in the day at The Country Club in Reseda.You guys and Sarcastic.I actually saw Dave and Catalepsys demo here on youtube the other day.Man was I lucky to grow up when Death Metal was just getting started.Impending Doom is a Classic.

[@vesuviacorpseflower4828]

Saw these guys in Chicago, IL (The Live Wire...summer of 2018). One of the best live performances I've ever seen!! Front-row, relentless headbanging, got to meet the band before they played, and hung out with a bunch of cool people from the show afterwards at some old-fashioned cafe!! I'm from a small town in the corn fields...so this was an awesome night!!

[@alanhartranft9899]

I was at that show; never got to meet them beforehand but me and a dozen other people made a beeline to the stage immediately after the set to shake hands. One of the best performances Ive ever seen

[@vesuviacorpseflower4828]

​@@alanhartranft9899Yeah man...I was front row (on the right side) and got an awesome pic of the band!! Their younger drummer was great (so old-school sounding!!). I thought about bringing my 'Calm Before the Storm' 7' for the original guys to sign it but I was paranoid that it would get damaged from the summer heat -ha. The Sadistic Intent guys were selling original demo cassettes from the early 90s at the merch table (I should have bought one!!).

[@ilyal.7773]

I'm just sitting here reminiscing food and remembering what a big deal Sadistic intent is and was. My band Saprophyte, played a good handful of shows in the early 90s, LA scene. Amazing bands back in those days. Sarcastic, Catelepsy, Demolition, Cyanide, and many others.it was always a big deal to play with these guys. Got a chance to see them in my later days again, in 2018 playing with Terrorizer LA. Great memories.

[@sophiabranam6875]

I use to live in Inglewood and went to hella shows at the Country Club in Reseda.Use to know Dave the singer from Catalepsy and the guitarist Marnice was originally in my garage dm band Mausoleum back in high school lol.Fuckin great times back then goin to backyard parties and concerts all the time.

That's how metalheads are linked with one another. I find out about Sadistic Intent through a friend who lived in Los Angeles and visited his record store "Dark Realm Records" in Downey California. Have had the pleasure to hangout with them and Bay did sound for us on a gig we did in L. A. Killer times!

[@toothsnaggleer]

@@tgu1991 that's enticing memories, thank you for sharing. Would you mind to share for which band Bay did the sound !

Pretty sure I have some sort of demo tape from these guys. I can't seem to find any info on the tape, and it's not shown on metal archives. The logo is the same, but it looks a little different. It's also hand drawn I believe, but I could be thinking of another tape from a different band. I'll have to dig it out of storage and find out if it's these guys or not. Either way, these guys kick some major ass! \m/

[@toothsnaggleer]

Absolutely, but if that demo tape is from Sadistic Intent, then that would be hell of a mighty possession. Fist Up.

[@mojorusty]

Oh I do have a tale from a band called sadistic intent, I just need to find out f it's this same band or some other hand th a copied the name and possible logo. I had honestly forgot about the tape till I stumbled on this video the other day.

I wish I could give you some kind of update. I have moved a couple times since I posted here, and my tapes have been packed in a box sitting in a storage unit almost this entire time. Different units because we’ve moved from Seattle to Phoenix. But, that said, I am planning on moving into a new place by this summer and hope to find my tapes. I’ll let you know when I do.
