1.	INSANITY’S EDGE 03:44	lyrics	buy track
Am weary to rise Thousands of steps Without light, dirt everywhere A marathon of disease. I do not want to get to the finish line, High-rise building, my skull. In the balance among suffering, reality and hallucinations. And the edge becomes my only path. Abyss on my right side, Cursed life on my left. Hundreds of voices, dances in my head Waltz of death 'n despair, sacrifices and frustrations. I'm dirty, greasy, smelly, sloppy My dress is "nonsense", insanity's edge Abyss on my right side, Cursed life on my left. A white -- void within my brain. I've sold my soul, dearly, in Hell. Insanity's Edge Insanity's Edge
2.	UNHOLY SOUL 03:56	lyrics	buy track
The time in which i was born Marked doom. For the love of a mother That left me to my fate. Locked. Many days are gone, Feel the closeness of new hope Just a guise Absurd cravings assails me at night Two babies to grown, two toys to have fun (with). Feed him, dress him, bite him, fuck him, Bless him, beat him, take his soul. Stab him, choke him, kick him, Hug him, love him, push him into the hole. Under a starless night I pray for my soul. Condemned to a slow death... As you expect, i will kill more and more. What you give is what you get, an horrible death. The Monster I Am. The Monster I Am.

Here comes the pain Sitting in my dark room, feel the coldness of my cage, waiting for you. This is a Satanic Ritual Abuse, neuropsychiatry and wounds. Sexual abuse Mental refuse Drugged and confuse Killing Machine Methods of greed Mental decay Hungry to kill Shattered on my deepest dreams. I'm goin' down Remote controlled This twisted state of mind I'm under your will Manchurian Candidate i'll be Sick of life as i know it Lying on this bed drugged and traumatized. Don't blame (me), i'm only a cavy Don't blame (me), 6 months of LSD Don't blame (me), dead eyes/nose/mouth/ears Don't blame (me), don't you fucking pity me This is the end of all My dream, it has begun I'm Enthralled Oblivion..
4.	LETTERS FROM DEATH ROW PT.1 04:41	lyrics	buy track
Ten days 'till departure time. You already know that they killed my neighbor, Elmer, 5 days ago. Then they moved me into his cell. After they execute someone they move the rest of us down one cell, working our way to cell#1, the launching pad to the gurney next door. This is a bad luck cell very few of us get out of here alive! These will be hectic days, freighted with emotion, all the final letters, all the final phone calls, final visits, final goodbyes. This is a bad luck cell very few of us get out of here alive! Things have become even more regimented as "established procedures" increasingly take over. More cell front visits from high ranking officials forms to fill out (cremation or burial?)
5.	LETTERS FROM DEATH ROW PT. 2 04:01	lyrics	buy track
I declined the offer of a "last meal". I'm not interested in participating in that time-worn ritual, to feed some reporter's breathless post-execution account. Besides, material gratification will be the last thing on my mind as I prepare to cross over to the non-material planes. Watching Elmer go through his final days really drove home how ritualized this whole process has become; the ritual aspect perhaps brings some numbing comfort - or sense of purpose -- to those not really comfortable with this whole killing people scheme. This is akin to participating in a play where the participants step to a rote cadence, acting out their parts in the script, with nobody pausing to question the underlying premise. It's like a Twilight Zone episode where you want to grab someone, shake them hard, and yell "Hey, wake up! Don't you know what's going on here?!!!" Time that surprisingly subjective, abstract concept is becoming increasingly compressed for me I will endure this without fear, and with as much grace as I can summon. SET ME FREE SET ME FREE

about

Stefano Zani's Project is a death/thrash metal project created from the mind of Stefano Zani, that, between july and september 2012, started to compose the songs to be included in his first work. Together with him, writing, composing and arranging tunes, the project features some musicians already known in the italian metal environment.
The bass player, Giuseppe Aufiero (Tethra, Edra Thanatos, Undead Shadows, Luca Alfieri's Solo Project), is the first to meet Stefano and work with him .
Later, Alessandro Tinti on drums (Illogicist,Penthagon,Solid Noise, Perseverance), Willi on rythm and solo guitar (Cadaveric Crematorium,Odia, Mind Siege, HVS II) and the vocalist Uruk-Hai (Nefertum, A Tree, Omnia Malis Est) joined the band.
Ideas and arrangements were conceived in the period between the end of 2012 and the beginning of 2013 and in the following summer, after a brief break, Uruk-Hai took part in the Stefano Zani's project.
In the fall of 2013 started the production of those tunes that will be included in the first ep called "Hanging From The Chains Of Oblivion", work held in cooperation with Fabio Danesi's Rock Haus recording studio, where recording, mixing and mastering process was done.
