Bereits im November hatten die US Metaller METAL CHURCH ihre frische Single `F.A.F.O.` im runderneuerten Lineup veröffentlicht. Heute folgt der nächste Streich `Brainwash Game´. Der Song ist gleichzeitig der Opener des neuen, dreizehnten Albums der Truppe, über das nun auch mehr bekannt ist. Es trägt den Titel „Dead To Rights“ und steht uns am 10. April ins Haus.
Kurdt Vanderhoof erklärt zur Scheibe:
“This new album is very special to me for one reason: the band was over, and I honestly didn’t see it being resurrected. But somehow, it brought itself back to life—again! I’m incredibly proud of these new songs; they hit hard. Brian Allen brings the classic Metal Church sound to the vocals, and adding a rhythm section with musicians of the caliber of Dave Ellefson and Ken Mary makes this a force to be reckoned with. If you enjoy classic Metal Church, you’re going to love this record.”
Und über die Single:
“‘Brainwash Game’ is really about the machinery behind the curtain. We’re living in a time where the modern media cycle and the internet move so fast that truth often gets twisted, filtered, and repackaged to fit whatever narrative sells the most clicks. It’s not always about informing people anymore — it’s about steering them. The song dives into that idea of manipulation, how repetition and outrage can blur the lines between fact and fiction until people don’t even realize they’re being conditioned. It’s heavy, it’s aggressive, and lyrically it’s meant to challenge listeners to think for themselves in a world that constantly tries to think for them.”

Lyrics:
Watching and waiting, the world is frustrating
Having your life pass you by
Nothing you’re doing and everyone’s losing
While others have endless supply
Guardian angels coming alive
Always waiting, lighting up the sky
Brainwash Game
Feel no shame
You’re gonna lose it every time
Brainwash Game
Yourself to blame
This is no victimless crime
Winning or losing, it’s all so confusing
When you don’t know wrong from right
The path you are choosing
The truth you’re refusing
Society’s new parasite
Guardian angels coming alive
Always waiting, lighting up the skies
Brainwash Game
Feel no shame
You’re gonna lose it every time
Brainwash Game
Yourself to blame
This is no victimless crime
Guardian angels coming alive
Always waiting, lighting up the sky
Brainwash Game
Feel no shame
You’re gonna lose it every time
Brainwash Game
Yourself to blame
This is no victimless crime
Brainwash Game
