about
"Fist Evangelist" is the fourth single from the Finnish death metal
powerhouse Inborn Tendency's upcoming debut album. The fresh track offers a slightly different and groovier sound with hardcore influences. The lyrics deal with a change in conviction, from steadfastness to violence.
Singer Ville Herranen states, "We are not supporting violence or violent protests. The song is about how our will to be right and impose our values on to others can easily become something that is very much against the values we are trying to advocate."
"This is something I have struggled with personally and, while the song is obviously written in a very caricaturistic manner, it holds a special meaning and acts as a stark reminder for us to act in accordance with our beliefs," continues Herranen.
The band has previously announced that their debut album will be released sometime in 2025.
lyrics
I am ready, in and out of season
To reason you out of your treason
I will show you how your way of denial
Is keeping you in a pact with Belial
Your resistance is making my face twitch
as you refuse my arguments sound and rich
My anger takes over, my blood starts to boil
As I realize I've sown to an infertile soil
Raise your fist, start to make some sound
Stand your ground, keep your voices loud
My fists do the talking as I harshen my tone
You seem to listen but I know that you're gone
If you're so eager for hell, I'll take you there
Your death cry shall be your final prayer
Raise your fist, stand your ground
And keep your voices loud
