Ari: Mastermind is Mika’s song with Kristian’s melodies and lyrics. Very dark, very heavy, ending with some awesome orchestrations. Kristian: Beware of war propaganda! Those in control who want more power will divide and turn people against the scapegoat they’ve chosen. The war is built upon dehumanization of the enemy. Here the evolution of western … More Trust Betrayal Revealed: Song of the Week 8 – Mastermind
Ari: These are Janne’s riffs, as you can tell by the time signatures. Kristian’s vocal melodies are awesome, I especially like the NWOBHM-tinged chorus, catchy as hell.

Assu: It’s a fateful symphony of horror and hope. Ari: Indeed it is. ”Oblivion” is an apocalyptic noir prophecy of things that are bound to happen… and we’ll be the clowns of oblivion, that’s for sure. Kristian: The end of mankind due to pollution and unsustainable use of resources that leads to shortage and finally … More Trust Betrayal Revealed: Song of the Week 5 – Oblivion
Ari: An old song brought back to life with new arrangement, melodies and lyrics. Really strong riffage going on in this one, all written by Mika and Janne. Fantastic piece of thrash with an important message! Kristian: This is a song about manipulation and conformism. It is about cults that end up to mass suicide … More Trust Betrayal Revealed – Song of the week 4: Blind Faith
Give us hell or sing our praise? Your choice!

Ari: Kristian brought in this song that became one of my personal favourites on the album. Not only are the lyrics very meaningful, I also love the sick, shrill voice he delivers them in. There’s lots to love here, from Assu’s thrash beats to me and Mika’s bull choir backing vocals and Janne’s quality guitar … More Trust Betrayal Revealed: Song of the Week 3 – Narcissist
