Die seit Ende der 80er aktiven finnischen Thrash Metal Veteranen von PRESTIGE stellen ihren neuen Song und Video zu `Hopeless Case´ vor. Es ist ihr erstes musikalisches Lebenszeichen seit der Single `Candles´ (2023) und der aktuellen Studioscheibe „Reveal The Ravage“ (2021).
Sänger/Bassist Aku Kytölä über den Song:
“What really keeps me up all night is that with all the knowledge we have, when and why did we lose the ability to see through obvious bull and instead started to believe in the absolute nonsense With not even a half of truth in it. All kinda isms raise their heads, worse, more popular. There are innocent ordinary simple souls sucking in all the crap, believing it all without even trying to filter any of it. You have to live amongst them 24/7 but the main difference is that when the sun sets and night comes, under the gleaming light of laptop screen they spew that creepy twisted gospel online for more and more masses to follow. I don’t. You don’t have to. Think”.

Lyrics:
Hopeless Case
Desperate times, right or wrong
Even happiest tales won’t feed the crowd like lies
Venomous lies, they have to state tonight
These are times for Death to ride
To reap the grain with the widest smile you’ll ever see
And it’s all you ever see
Butterfly wings ride tedious winds, so keep your filthy mouth shut
And try, just once, to think before you spit another word
Into the air I have to share
With a vicious fool like you
Who poisons all the good
Hopeless case, still in denial
Scream for the deaf, into the void
Stupidity of mankind is a choice
So what have we got? Besides the hate? Degenerates!
Determination on the brink of extinction
When you’ve got nothing to say
Keep it shut and try for once
To think before you spit another word
Into the air I have to share
With a vicious fool like you
Who poisons all the good
Hopeless case, still in denial
From the top of my lungs
Into the stormy sea
Is this the truth or do I live a dream?
A dream so bad, nightmares combined are a pony-ride
On a marshmallow sky
When you’ve got nothing to say
Keep it shut and try for once
To think before you spit another word
Into the air I have to share
With a vicious fool like you
Who poisons all the good
Hopeless case, still in denial
