“The song ‘Deity in Furs’ addresses organized religion and how people are governed by fear. It talks about how people are so scared to question that they choose to follow blindly and are slaves to their God.”
“The song ‘Atrocity Exhibition’ is our latest song that we released a few months ago. We definitely feel this song hasn’t gotten the recognition it deserves. It is about the atrocities of man: war, violence, discrimination, abuse, police brutality, etc.”

Go support a band that has a LOT to say.
