Die junge nordrheinwestfälische Band FROSTSHOCK hat 2023 ihr selbstbetiteltes Debüt auf den Markt gebracht und überzeugte zuletzt im Vorprogramm von KERRY KING. Nun erscheint die neue Videosingle `The Swarm´, zu der es wie immer ein von Sänger Flemming Wehren kreiertes Ölgemälde gibt. Sowohl Text als auch Das Bild lassen erkennen, dass es bei dem Schwarm in dem angeschwärzten Melodic Death/Thrash Track um Dr0hnen und somit ein sehr aktuelles, prekäres Thema geht.

Lyrics:

As the black swarm rose into the air
no ray of sunlight could break the despair
The sky grew dark – the world stood still
A shadow cast upon the hill

They locked upon me Chasing shadows – one by one
The fear took hold – it set me free
and I chose to run

through the ruins and woods I must run
Chasing weapons
The race was lost until it had begun

Counted deaths – stored on their hard drives
Silent lives – lost in their archives

The race against my death has begun
The whir of blades – like engines gasping
at the front
I weave and dart
This is the final part
My execution – my fate that can´t be outrun

Counted deaths – stored on their hard Drives
They will execute me without a trial
Silent lives – lost in their archives
Nothing´s gonna change their mind
Nothing´s gonna change their mind

I won´t find a way to escape
´m a number – bound to be erased

Nothing´s gonna change their mind
to erase me in the final strike
I will face the face of death and
breath my last with no more breath

Lifeless as they are – so am I in the end
The wings of the evil are carried by the wind
Exhausted limbs
I´m staring into the abyss
No mercy shown
No voice to plead
A silent judge
Devoid of sense
Embracing my death – Forsaking my life
Forsaking the day – Embracing the night
Surrendering to my desired death
The will to survive left

It´s watching me – suspended in the sky
Nothing´s gonna change their mind
The red dot sight right between my eyes
As silence falls beneath the sky
