SCARS OF THE FLESH, die selbsternannte „Epic Melodic Death Metal“ Unit aus San Antonio, Texas stellt die erste Single seit dem 2022 erschienenen dritten Album „In Darkness Alone“ vor. Dabei geht der neue Song eher in `Those that Seek an End` Richtung in Richtung Black-Thrash.
Über das noch ausstehende vierte Langeisen schreibt die Band:
„This Friday we will be unleashing a new single for you guys, „Those that Seek an End“. We have been sitting on this song for a bit, but figured why not just let it be out there while we continue to work on new tunes for album 4. It is one hell of an epic that has all the defining Scars elements as well as some surprises.

Lyrics:
Subsequent back and forth
The ebb and flow of time
The ticking ways we spare
Our soul the rot of rind
Too far, you’ve taken this initiative
Too long, a battle of wits and wind
Too strong, a sickness beyond hope
No rhyme, for those that seek an end
Cut the ties, edge the sword
Pay the price beyond the source
A dance of lies, sharpen the knife
Exit the womb of creation’s demise
Yesterday’s history is a tale longer than tape
Eventually runs the course that we can’t escape
Our breath is taken at vow and truth
The agreement to no longer consume
Bile and filth, wretched spokes of a broken wheel
Maim and kill, bleed out love and let the hatred rebuild
Sink or swim, weakness drowns like the anchor we are
Savage and frail, endless run of the mouth and all it spills
Pay the price beyond the source
Exit the womb of creation’s demise
Yesterday’s history is a tale longer than tape
Eventually runs the course that we can’t escape
Our breath is taken at vow and truth
The agreement to no longer consume
Bile and filth, wretched spokes of a broken wheel
Maim and kill, bleed out love and let the hatred rebuild
Sink or swim, weakness drowns like the anchor we are
Savage and frail, endless run of the mouth and all it spills
Ashes upon ashes
Rip the cord, sever the stem
Remove the cancer from within
Want it to end, wish to pretend
The same respect was never given
The tyrant untamed for those who shall not be named
no need to point blame, anymore
From ruin and ruse, the body contused
No wound can heal beyond pain, nevermore
Those that seek an end…
Those that seek an end…
