The band recently issued the following album update: "Blending slow and heavy riffs with melodies distorted and clean, we try to create our own slice of metal. Taking influences from all over the musical spectra, but keeping a solid metal foundation. Mixing technicality with simplicity to get such a varied album as possible. The lyrics deal with philosophical ideas and random rants about the strange ways of man, covering topics such as: the fallacies of religion, the rat-race of our over-consuming life style, the hypocrisy found in the writing of history, how a seemingly insignificant event shapes a man's entire life. With song titles like 'Flaw In The Axiom', 'Shift In Thought', 'Your Final Solution', 'Born To Consume', 'The Art Of Suffering'. Featuring guest solos by Thomas Ahlgren (DERANGED, PANDEMONIUM) on 'Born To Consume' and 'Incident'. And backing vocals by Joel Sundin on 'Lady In The Grave'.
