Die süddeutschen True/Speed Metaller um Gerrit Mutz stellen den Titelsong und Opener ihrer neuen „Ritual Supremacy“ Scheibe im Video vor. Die zehnte Studio-Langrille des Fünfers erscheint dann am 25. April und ist die erste Scheibe mit den beiden neuen Mitgliedern Toni Ieva (Bass) und Jörn Langenfeld (Gitarre), die 2023 zur Band stießen.

Sänger Gerrit erklärt:

“We chose this to be the 1st single because a) it´s the title track and b) it´s the heaviest track on the album. It´s always good to be back with a bang, right? Lyrically it’s about the fact that we all try to differentiate ourselves from others by looking for our own space, our refuge. As metalheads we have found this refuge in the community of other metalheads and within our music. Unfortunately, there are also negative cults in this world and we stand against them with all our might! That´s what the cover art refers to.”

Lyrics:

Born into this life of terror
Weak and insecure
Hoping to find something sacred
Something living for
At an early age I found out
Music was the key
To reach my magic kingdom
My own realm sanctuary

All ties were severed – this love was forever
I knew that this sound was for real
From rock into metal – from fear into battle
I knew my religion was steel

Time to rise – to fight and never back down

Ritual supremacy – call to arms eternally
Ritual supremacy – never beg or kneel
Feel the strength – power surge
Magic pulsing through each nerve
Never yield – never serve
Be as strong as steel

None shall conquer steel

Don´t want to be part of your life
Your society
All you are – all you stand for I will never be

All ties were severed – this love was forever
I knew that this sound was for real
From rock into metal – from fear into battle
I knew my religion was steel

Time to rise – to fight and never back down

Ritual supremacy – call to arms eternally
Ritual supremacy – never beg or kneel
Feel the strength – power surge
Magic pulsing through each nerve
Never yield – never serve
Be as strong as steel

None shall conquer steel

Ritual supremacy – ritual supremacy
Ritual supremacy – ritual supremacy

Time to rise – to fight and never back down

Ritual supremacy – call to arms eternally
Ritual supremacy – never beg or kneel
Feel the strength – power surge
Magic pulsing through each nerve
Never yield – never serve
Be as strong as steel

Ritual supremacy – ritual supremacy
Ritual supremacy – ritual supremacy
