Lyrics: End of Religion
Kill the best of me
All gods share the same conditions concerning love
Human effort as the only way to make us righteous
Blood, sweat, tears… work until it’s never enough
Driven by fear of wrath
Can you feel the whip
Whipping flesh off your back
This is not your god
Satan is his name
We have been misguided by
Formulas and regulations demanding
Holiness that we will always falter
Blessing and curse based on performance
Your faith is based on a lie
We are descendants of the second Adam
His incarnation, to the core a new creation
We are made holy in spite of ourselves
Anything we add is fruitless
He died for our sins
Finished the law
All you can do is receive
Jesus is the end of religion
My works are left for dead
Scandalous love
You’ll never leave my side
There is no way left for you to prove yourself to God
No more law
He erased it to prevent our fall
No more sin
Jesus suffered, cleansing us within
No more death
Jesus died to give eternal life
Jesus is the end of religion
My works are left for dead

Lyric video for ‘End of Religion’
Last november they came out with the following update:
Time to provide you with an update on what we’ve been up to.
Since the covid pandemic, since we could not do any shows, we silently started to write and record a new full length album. We wanted to put it out last year, but the process was not without hiccups. The national restrictions due to covid made it hard for us to get together in a practice room to write in the first place. Then, at some point in the middle of the recording period, we were just unsatisfied with the mixes and we had to switch producers. But this meant that we also had to start the whole recording process over again, which was frustrating. Furthermore, Sjoerd and Levi got their first child, and Burns first child can be born any day now. So they were and are also out of the band business for a while.
But as of now, the final guitars are being recorded and we even got the master back from the first single we will put out, so yes, we are absolutely most definately in the final stage of finishing recording the album. We are collaborating with producers Roelof Klop (Mountain Eye, Xeno, Onkt) and Jordan Valeriote (Emery, Forevermore, Silverstein) for the final product. In january, we will shoot a music video for the first single, with more to come. So yes, 2023 is going to be the year! More detailed information coming very soon!
