A 15-year old shot in cold blood by the police and the effect that all this had on the Greek society. Riots, fire, fights, protests, and more fire continuously ravaged Greece’s major cities for days. Day and night, protesters fought their way against police to make their statement.

This is one of the new songs to be featured on our upcoming album. Being a Greek inspired Dimitris to write lyrics for one of our songs. “Epilogue (Cities Burn)” will be on our debut album to be recorded in January and the song talks about the society’s perspective in these hard times, and this was probably even harder for Dimitris to be away from home on such a historical event for the Greeks. Take a look at these pictures or scroll down to view a video clip from the riots.

The music for this song has been written for quite some time and in fact we have even recorded the guide track for this song; a snippet of the recording can be found here. We thought that the lyrics fit perfectly with the song’s idea and concept so we decided to go for it and include this song on our record. We should upload the lyrics in the coming posts so make sure you keep checking out our blog.
