Speaking of the new track, the group offer:
“We always love working in dynamics in a song and Epidemic is us taking that to the extreme. Combining the most ripping of riffs and an ultra hooky chorus while remaining so heavy is what’s really been getting us off on this record. Throwing in some real stompy things and not being afraid of the quieter parts in conjunction with that has been real exciting and expressive with this song.
Lyrically, we’re always on the frustration tip which only matches the music but in 2024 more and more people look past the lyrics element. “Shut up and play!” is more prevalent than reading into what your listening to. The whole world is like that now. The media barely has to lie to us anymore. Three people can read the same synopsis of an event and mold it however they want it to fit their narrative. Some people like to keep that under wraps for fear of alienation despite their world view being based around alienating others. Sometimes I’m so overwhelmed by this that I absorb it and throw my hands up. “What the fuck can I even do about anything? What the fuck can anyone do about anything?!” The mutation of fact becoming alterable narrative is the ultimate epidemic.”
