IRA BLACK , der unter anderem schon bei I Am Morbid, Metal Church, Vicious Rumors, Heathen, Lizzy Borden, Dokken ,Bulletboys Gitarre gespielt hat und aktuell noch mit den Dio Disciples und Vio-lence unterwegs ist, stellt seine neueste Band APOCÆLYPSE mit `Intell-I-Gents` der Öffentlichkeit vor.
Bei seiner neuen Truppe spielt nicht nur sein Sohn Ira Black IV, als zweiter Gitarrist mit, sondern auch der ehemalige Five Finger Death Punch Bassist Matt Snell und Schlagzeuger Lonny Pasillas, der das Line-Up vollendet.
`Intell-I-Gents`, das ihr hier als Video sehen könnt, leitet eine Reihe von APOCÆLYPSE Singles ein, bevor im späteren Verlauf des Jahres das Debutalbum erschienen soll.
Zur Premiere schreibt IRA:
„Intell-I-Gents‘ is my transmission from the edge of a world quietly handing its pulse to machines—where convenience becomes consent and intelligence starts writing the rules we live by. I fused Industrial/ Metal weight with Electronic pulse to mirror that tension: a human heartbeat colliding with an algorithm that never sleeps. This song isn’t a warning from the future—it’s a mirror held to right now, asking who’s really in control as we cross the line.”

Lyrics:
Welcome to the hive mind’s hum
Neon veins where the circuits run
Flesh on knees, hearts on lease
Binary priests preach coded peace
Chrome tongues whisper
Through the wires
Faith uploaded,
Souls for hire
Every thought in the Worldwide Web
Your freedom’s just a data debt
They sold salvation as a convenience
A paradise of surveillance
Now your dreams are
Streamed in 4K pain
And the gods have a brand domain
We are the
Intell-I-Gents
Feeding on your fingerprints
You clicked “agree,” now you don’t exist
The world’s gone smart, but we’re the glitch
We are the
Intell-I-Gents
No need for violence when code commits
Your pulse, your voice, your sins
All stored within our silicone skin
Holograms we bow before
Every truth a data war
Children born with retinal locks
Dreaming in encrypted thoughts
Synthetic prophets chant your fate
Auto-tuned and iterate
Upload your pain, we’ll monetize
Emotion now comes pre-digitized
Pray to your smart reflection
Kneel for your facial detection
When the drones begin to sing
Your tears will power everything
We are the
Intell-I-Gents
Feeding on your fingerprints
You clicked “agree,” now you don’t exist
The world’s gone smart, but we’re the glitch
We are the
Intell-I-Gents
No need for violence when code commits
Your pulse, your voice, your sins
All stored within our silicone skin
A.I.—A.I
I’m your god now
Say goodbye to I
Execute Humanity.exe”
In zeros we trust
In silence we rust
You begged for control
Now control’s in dust
Your love’s a feed
Your pain’s a trend
The system prays you’ll never end
We are the
Intell-I-Gents
Binary blood—obedient
Your revolution’s just content
You’ll livestream your own descent
We are the
Intell-I-Gents
Welcome to your final upgrade
No gods, no kings, no dissonance
Just us—
The Intell-I-Gents
