MODERN MIMES

Now we all find ourselves in a state of no security for the whole world but instead of approaching it in the old patterns of franticness, there is an unshaken stillness.

SACRIFIX
In Frank Gasparotto’s words, “Raped Democracy” is an aggressive Thrash Metal, direct and straight, that talks about the dark times of dictatorship that unbelievably came back to haunt us nowadays. “There are those who argue that torture and oppression is the best way, but we have total contempt for those ideas and people”, he commented.

“Destroy” continues on the path paved by 2018’s debut album “Silent Conspiracy”, keeping the technical, complex and hallucinated riffs as a unique identity, reminding us almost instantly of the genius Jeff Waters (Annihilator), for example.

MARENNA
“The song “Breaking The Chains” came up quickly in our songwriting meetings between Luks, Rod and me, in a half lost guitar riff, with Luks creating a melody on the keyboard, me accompanying him on drums and Rod already solfeiting some random ideas. This is how one of the best tracks of this new phase of the band came up, a real Marenna classic, in my humble opinion, was created!”, added Arthur Schavinski.
