Red Team Lyrics

Cover art for Red Team lyrics by Front 242

Front 242 is known for their military image in the 80s.

This song is about probably about straight-forward red team-operations, i.e. conducted by a person/group "that plays the role of an adversary to provide security feedback from an antagonist's perspective. Red teams are used in many fields, especially in cybersecurity, airport security, law enforcement, military and intelligence agencies."

I live in a world of paradox My willingness to destroy Is your chance for improvement My hate is your faith My failure is your victory

@KlingKlang This is a very good attempt to put these lyrics into a larger context. Front 242 also used some technical terms related to computers, databases, military, graphic design, etc. as song titles: WYHIYWG (instead of WYSIWYG), First In/First Out (data processing) to name just two. Thanks!
