Mit traditionellen Heavy Metal Klängen versucht das Quintett CRIMSON DAY um Sängerin Milka Uusitalo zu punkten. Gerade hat die Truppe ihre `War Machine´ Auskopplung als Video vorgestellt. Die Single ist der Opener des im Mai erschienenen vierten Longplayer „Dark Dimension“ des Fünfers aus Tampere.
Gitarrist Ari Balzar führt aus:
„War Machine is a musical nod to old-school heavy metal with a modern edge. Lyrically, it explores humanity’s drive to create ever more powerful war machines. In this case, it draws inspiration from the legendary fighter aircraft of World War II, while also referencing the Battlestar Galactica episode „Scar.“ The video features authentic World War II footage that I found from various sources across the internet, showcasing aerial dogfights between the Allied and Axis forces, with a particular focus on battles between RAF and Luftwaffe pilots. So, if you’re a history nerd like me, I think you’re going to enjoy this video.“

Lyrics:
In the crimson clouds where shadows lie
It burns the air beneath this blackened sky
Destroyer of the worlds, from depths of hell
Searching target to destroy
Make a choice
kill or die, kill or die
War machine
relentless for blood
War machine
a whiplash of gods
War machine
relentless for blood
War machine
a whiplash of gods
Merciless engine of the gods
Unleashing chaos for us all
Metal heart, unrelenting force
Death sentence from above without remorse
Flip the coin,
kill or die, kill or die
War machine
relentless for blood
War machine
a whiplash of gods
War machine
relentless for blood
War machine
a whiplash of gods
