BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION released ‘Our Illusion’ at the end of 2014 to provide a taste of what was to come on their highly anticipated follow-up album. After a small line-up change in the middle of 2015 the band, now back to their core members, they are ready to continue where ‘Drop = Dead’ and ‘Our Illusion’ finished and dare to take a step even further away from the ”core-scene” by removing the classical breakdown theme and add more groovy and crunchy riffs instead, still with a nose bleed forcing heaviness. With this new album,
BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION are ready to head back out touring and secure their position as the innovative band who always succeed to amaze. With an innovative sound and a new unique image, which soon will be revealed, the band is eager to work towards the next level.
Now Or Never
Beyond All Recognition Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′m not the one who I used to be,
It's time to let you go,
It is over,
THIS IS FUCKED UP, beyond all recognition
There′s nothing more to say,
It is now or never,
You found out who I used to be,
And I say it before I go,
This is the reason, because I am leaving
It is now or never
It is now or never
It is now or never
It is now or never
I'm not who I used to be,
I don't care anymore,
I don′t need you,
Just go away,
You found out who I used to be,
And I say it before I go,
This is the reason, because I am leaving
One choice to make,
That′s why I'm leaving,
One life to live,
That′s why I'm leaving,
I got nothing to say,
I got nothing to say to you,
Cause we won′t last forever,
It is now or never,
The lyrics of Beyond All Recognition's "Now or Never" convey a sense of finality and acceptance of a relationship's end. The opening lines, "This time has come to an end, I'm not the one who I used to be, It's time to let you go, It is over," suggest an understanding that the relationship has run its course and it is time to move on. The repeated refrain of "It is now or never" emphasizes the urgency of the situation and the need to take action.
The lyrics also suggest a sense of liberation from a past version of the self. The line, "You found out who I used to be, And I say it before I go, This is the reason, because I am leaving," conveys a sense of honesty and closure. The singer is willing to reveal their past self to their partner before departing, perhaps feeling that they no longer need to hide or be ashamed of who they were. The final lines, "One choice to make, That's why I'm leaving, One life to live, That's why I'm leaving," suggest a desire to move forward and make a new start.
Overall, "Now or Never" is a powerful expression of the need for closure and the desire to move on from a relationship that has run its course.

This shit is amazing. I swear, you guys are the next big thing. Screams are amazing, the mix of the dubstep and your instruments is pure filth; in the best way possible. The clean vocals are awsome as well. You guys are perfect.
