The incredibly danceable brand-new songs like Genesis, Companion, Cicatrix and Walls have Eyes amount gloomily, powerfully and morbidly to a menacing thunderstorm, while the lyrics keep digging heavily and deeply in the furtive, ruthlessly revealing the abyss of the human psyche. TRAUMA: RITUAL is an almost sixty-minute long masterpiece, which ends with the epic tune Zenit,
which is definitely one of the album highlights. [:SITD:] tear down the walls, they open the doors to freedom, and finally they unite. At the end of it all, hope prevails. Quite a big surprise is the collaboration between the band from the Ruhr-Area and guest singer DENNIS SCHOBER, the well-known vocalist from SOLITARY EXPERIMENTS, on the catchy club anthem Puls:Schlag (i.e. “pulsation” or “pulse:beat”). It’s the first duet EVER with another artist on an official [:SITD:] release!
