The seventh track from Ulver's Perdition City album, released in 2000. Ulver are a rather unique band, ranging stylistically from black metal, acoustic folk, trip-hop, dark ambient, industrial, and even psychedelic rock. Perdition City is Ulver's foray into electronic music, incorporating into it a saxophone, ambience, and unorthodox song structures, among many other things.
Uploader's Note: I realize that there are two videos of this song uploaded already; the main issue with those is that they are both in 240p quality. This is the first upload of Dead City Centres to be uploaded with a higher quality, made from an MP3 at 320kbps. For best quality, set the video to 720p resolution.
Lyrics:
You're taking a ride to the underworld
Where death lurks in dark corners
And trouble is never far away
Wild gangs rule by fear and prey on the weak
Lone killers haunt the highways
And dark forces move through the shadows
In this lowlife realm of freaks and psychos
Only the tough or the streetwise survive
And you might be big, but to stay big
You've got to keep moving, stay sharp and hit first
Enter a deadly future where no prisoners are taken
And the killing never stops
Enter the underworld...
