about
With their third single, In Memory, Fight the Fight venture even further into their unsettling, yet compellingly melodic soundscape of progressive death metal.
A place where you are taken on a cinematic journey of the universe, fueled by a frustration and despair of what the world is, but also a relief of see things for what they really are.
Videos unveiling the drum recording, with the charismatic and energetic Baard Kolstad (Leprous) behind the drums, has now gone viral on Instagram resulting on a tripling of followers on multiple platforms the last couple of months.
Fight the Fight on In Memory:
“In Memory is the last song we wrote for the album, it´s also the final track on the album.
The upcoming album is highly conceptual with a clear storyline. The songs were written in pace with the story and were thus developed as we explored the narrative.
When you are writing a concept album with a storyline it’s especially difficult to choose the singles leading up to the album release.
In Memory is the 7-minute-long climax to this story. We tried to think outside the box and write in a way we have never done before while writing with this one. With dynamic changes, a lot of percussive elements and long, stretched out, parts that will make you feel like you are trapped in a vortex from which you cannot escape.
We are really proud of this one and we can’t wait to give you the full story.”
lyrics
Lyrics:
We try to make things last
Searching for life, looking for meaning
In Memory, we bow down
Our Legacy, the shade of our pale light.
We stare upon, the night sky,
Chase victory, Contradictory
Count down for eternity
The Shah of time will all make sense
When you reject your humanity
To this Alien Machinery
The Stars, Guide
The Earth and Time
The King, The Slave
The Burden, The Weight
In Memory, we bow down
Our Legacy, the shade of our pale light.
We stare upon, the night sky,
Chase victory, Contradictory
I will be the one to solve your conundrum
As you stare into the eye of the storm
Lay down, stay still for a moment
Your Memories, just an illusion
Injected Blood transfusion
Here to save you from your human confusion
The hive mind feeds on the weakness of flesh
The Shah of time, The Serpent
All will be reset
When you Awaken
your fractured minds and pay off your debt
And time will tell if you can ever forget
Face calamity
Face calamity
Count down for eternity
The Shah of time will all make sense
When you reject your humanity
To this Alien Machinery
