Tema

Una canción espeluznante que describe un **instrumento de tortura** medieval llamado el **'Aplastacabezas'** (*Head Crusher*). La letra se centra en los horripilantes detalles físicos del dispositivo aplastando lentamente el cráneo de la víctima, destrozando sus dientes y causando un dolor insoportable, utilizado típicamente durante un interrogatorio forzado.

Letra

It's time to take your last walk in this world Before your journey begins underground Not before we torment you From your cell straight to hell With a short detour in-between Begging for mercy all alone Unable to handle the pressure Before his mortification Now let the torture begin! Death by the head crusher Head crusher! Death by the head crusher! Wow! The horrific torture device For those who fail interrogation The most painful technique ever known People thirst for the worst The skull's disintegration Beaten, broken, in bloody rags Adding insult to injury He recants but it's much too late Now let the torture begin! Death by the head crusher Head crusher! Death by the head crusher! (On your knees prisoners take your positions) (Place your chin forward into the restraint) (Your head slowly caves in from the compression) (You'll faint to black out from the infernal pain) Twisting Turning the giant screw Your teeth are breaking loose Crushed and splintering into your mouth Winding down Cutting through Like broken glass being chewed Your fragmented skull and shattering bones There's nothing you can do!
