Auch wenn es am Anfang so klingt, die New Yorker Thrash Unit INCITE legt mit der `Savage New Times` Single kein Painkiller Cover vor. Vielmehr handelt es sich bei der Videoauskopplung, um den Titelsong des heute veröffentlichten „Savage New Times“ Langeisens, der sich zu einem ordentlichen Thrashbrett entwickelt.
Frontmann Richie Cavalera kommentiert den Song wiefolgt:
“‘Savage New Times’ is a throwback to 80s metal that inspired us. It’s meant to be a song about being strong, overcoming, and fighting through the dark days of our lives. It’s a killer track and a great way to end an album as our final battle cry!”

Lyrics:
Life is fragile full of broken glass
Gather up the pieces and build it to last
The weight upon my shoulders
Would crush the strongest soul
I’ll wear it like an armor as I strive to take control
In the depths of my mind
I was trapped with no end
Life’s endless hammer is crashing down again
Everyday a battle that I fought in vain
Rise with defiance my power won’t be tamed
Life is brutal a relentless fight
Through the darkness I emerge in the light
Forged by the fire I’ll never break or bend
The metal in my veins I refuse to let this end
In the depths of my mind
I was trapped with no end
Life’s endless hammer is crashing down again
Everyday a battle that I fought in vain
Rise with defiance my power won’t be tamed
A coming storm
A blackened sky
Unleashing fury my battle cry
