"Did you ever ask yourself how is it possible that the global population just loves to make cash with killing our planet and our fellowmen and doesn`t give a fuck? Where is the wake up call of our political leaders in charge? Mankind does not really wanna have a look in the mirror till it's too late ! and this is an angry Thrash song about that sad fact!"

We are talking underground music here, so it`s an amazing statement for THRASH & the fans! A big CHEERS to all those rebels who don t accept the norm and support the sound of the pit!"
