In a March 2011 interview, Russell described ADRENALINE MOB as "a straight-up rock band with just rock songs — kind of like an edgy, modern kind of sound. It's not progressive or trying to be too metal or anything — it's just good, old crunchy rock stuff." He added, "I think it will be really well received by people who like to hear that kind of stuff. This is a new thing for Portnoy and myself, too. I've always done kind of done stuff with AYREON, but that's more of a vintage-y vibe, but nothing like this, which is kind of modern-sounding, almost like ROB ZOMBIE meets BLACK LABEL SOCIETY meets DISTURBED, [but] with [Ronnie James] Dio singing. It's all this kind of craziness. So it's definitely different and it's cool."
Hit the Wall

We all know you're never wrong
It's always the same and I'm so tired
Living the life for too long
Tired, frustrated
This life is overrated
I think I'm hitting the wall
Full speed, I think I'll make it
I think I'm hitting the wall
Line after line, it just drags on
Why can't you leave it alone?
Blistering tongues, blood in my ears
Drowning in your sticks and stones
Tired, frustrated
This life is overrated
I think I'm hitting the wall
Tired, can't take it
Full speed, I think I'll make it
I think I'm hitting the wall
I see the river running red
Inside my head through bloodshot eyes
And comes the thunder
Running through the metal madness as I ride
Tired, frustrated
This life is overrated
I think I'm hitting the wall
Tired, can't take it
Full speed, I think I'll make it
I think I'm hitting the wall
I'm looking down upon this wreck of a life
The voice of angels whispered, "Leave it all behind"
I'm stepping through the door
No going back
Can't take it anymore
Memories fade to black
Memories fade to black
Fade to black
The lyrics of Adrenaline Mob's "Hit the Wall" depict a person who has worn out and tired of the monotonous and frustrating experiences of living. The first verse suggests that the person is acknowledging the heaviness in their heart, yet living in denial of the fact that they are always wrong. It is always the same way of living, which has become tiresome. The second verse talks about a tedious existence, punctuated with verbal attacks that the person must endure without a respite. The line "blistering tongues, blood in my ears, drowning in your sticks and stones" symbolizes the damage that occurs when harsh and negative energy is directed at someone for too long.
The chorus describes the person's state of mind. They are tired, frustrated, and feel like they're "hitting the wall." The phrase "hitting the wall" means that they can no longer continue as they have been and need to break the monotony of their existence. The third verse talks about the chaos in the person's head, with vivid images of red rivers flowing inside bloodshot eyes. The metal music that the person listens to becomes a medium that they ride through to escape their troubles. The final verse has a sense of finality with the person stepping through a door, leaving their wrecked life behind with memories fading to black.

The verbal assault is taking its toll on me
Drowning in your sticks and stones
The verbal abuse is overwhelming me
I see the river running red
I feel like I'm drowning in negativity
Inside my head through bloodshot eyes
My thoughts are clouded and my eyes are tired
And comes the thunder
A storm of emotions is brewing within me
Running through the metal madness as I ride
I'm holding on for dear life as I face this challenge
I'm looking down upon this wreck of a life
I see how much of a mess everything has become
The voice of angels whispered, "Leave it all behind"
There's a part of me hoping for something better
I'm stepping through the door
I'm making a change
No going back
There's no returning to the old ways
Can't take it anymore
I've reached a point where I can't tolerate this anymore
Memories fade to black
The past is fading away as I move forward
Fade to black
The story is coming to an end

Is "The Duke" playing on this? Please excuse my ignorance.
@MatteoRinaldi93
I don't know "The Duke", however this group is formed by Russell Allen on vocals, Mike Orlando on guitar, John Moyer on bass and Mike Portnoy on drums. The latter left the band months ago, I hope I was helpful.
@MrHeem94
Matteo Portnoy
So, no to Rich Ward then.
@MatteoRinaldi93
