Their lyrics focus on themes of self-responsibility, positive change, and fighting for a better world. It’s time to get another shot of their upcoming record with the new single “Have You Forsaken The Cross?” This song is talking about a question to the church and religion, in general, getting dogma over love, a very important issue. Musically this song could be described as a mix between Iced Earth and Tony Martin.
