Im Juni hatten die 1985 gegründeten und 1997 aufgelösten US Thrasher FORBIDDEN `Divided By Zero` veröffentlicht, ihre erste neue Single seit geschlagenen 15 Jahren. Der letzte Longplayer “ Omega Wave“ datiert aus dem Jahr 2010. Heute folgt im offiziellen Video der zweite neue Track `Mutually Assured Dysfunction´.

Lyrics:
Welcome to this approved state of madness
Where meaningless rhetoric’s on the rise
Quick sign up now, while we’re still allowed
A fire sale on pretext and disorder
Words ringing empty in this land of plenty
Bias, exaggeration, the unforgiving expectation
Human nature burned in effigy
Take your turn, another verbal shootout
Self-importance and status the prize
True to the cause, ignore the cost
There’s no way to save yourself if you’re burning it all down
Into the mouths of lions we will stride
Eyes wide shut we happily abide
Blurring lines between told truths and lies
Mutually assured dysfunction
Mutually assured dysfunction
Both side’s committed
Absurd atrocities, until unhidden
The Never-changing
Only the puppeteer is laughing now
It’s the hypocrite who’s first to point out
Only the fires they did not light
Who’s fault this time? Relabeled crime
Ignore the stones raining down on your glass house
Words ringing empty in this land of plenty
Bias, exaggeration, the unforgiving expectation
Into the mouths of lions we will stride
Eyes wide shut we happily abide
Blurring lines between told truths and lies
Mutually assured dysfunction
Mutually assured dysfunction
Mutually assured destruction
