In July 2007, drummer Matt C. left Biomechanical, because of 'musical differences'. He was then replaced by Jonno Lodge, a young musician from Doncaster. A few weeks later, not long before the planned release of their third album, Cannibalised, Jamie Hunt, Chris Webb and Jon Collins also left the band due to conflicts with Mainman/Singer John K. They were promptly replaced by Gus Drax, Chris Van Hayden and Adrian Lambert.
Matt C. and Chris Webb have since formed a new band (SOLSIKK) and Jamie Hunt is currently working with Pin (ex-Sikth) and the legendary Thomas Lang in a project called Within The Void.
The current band members are:
John K - vocals
Jonno Lodge - drums & percussion
Chris Van Hayden - guitar
Adrian Lambert - bass

Biomechanical Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm a shadow in the darkness
I move between your dreams and nightmares
I dance within the cries of pain, I suffered from you
I terrorize the core of power deep inside you
I melt the crown you wear
Burning through your skull
I am without but within your fears
In the Core of Darkness
That is where you will find me.
From the Core of Darkness
I'm staring back at you
From the core of Darkness
Staring back at you
Etch 'regret' on the meat of your heart
Suits by Mac Beth, your pen spills their blood
Wear your heart on a chain 'round your neck
So every demon you meet understands
Burning questions
Shatter your reality
For I'm within
I' am without but within your fears
In the Core of Darkness
That is where you will find me.
From the Core of Darkness
I'm staring back at you
From the core of Darkness
Staring back at you
(Part 2)
Pure as pain
pure evil flows through me
I see the darkness ripping through
Open up your eyes and see demise
of the children who were never meant to be
Eat their bodies and be reborn once again.
Beasts of heaven are raging toward you
Angels of hell are craving for your flesh
Drink my blood and rip my heart out
Be my guest and see what I can see
Eat your flesh and become reborn once again
Beasts of heaven are racing toward you
Angels of hell are craving for your flesh
Beasts of heaven are rising toward you
Unholy saints they contemplate
Their thoughts as a dark sacrament
I Eat your flesh and become reborn once again
Ruler of your Living Hell
(Part 3)
In the Core of Darkness
That is where you will find me.
From the Core of Darkness
I'm staring back at you
In the Core of Darkness.....
The lyrics of the song In the Core of Darkness by Biomechanical describe a shadowy figure that is invisible and moves between dreams and nightmares. This figure dances within the cries of pain, which it suffered from the person the song is addressed to. The figure terrorizes the core of power deep inside this person, melting the crown they wear and burning through their skull. The figure is without but within the person's fears, shattering their reality with burning questions. The first part of the song ends with the repetition of the line "In the Core of Darkness, that is where you will find me", as if challenging the listener to face their fears and confront the figure.
The second part of the song takes an even darker and more gruesome turn. The figure introduces itself as a conduit of pure evil, ripping through darkness and causing the demise of the children who were never meant to be. The figure offers its own flesh to be eaten and invites the listener to become reborn once again. It speaks of beasts of heaven and angels of hell, both craving for the listener's flesh. The song ends with the third repetition of the line "In the Core of Darkness, that is where you will find me", emphasizing the eerie and terrifying nature of the figure.

Invisible
I am unseen, hidden from sight
I'm a shadow in the darkness
I am a shade or reflection that moves within the darkness
I move between your dreams and nightmares
I move and exist between your subconscious fears and terrors at night
I dance within the cries of pain, I suffered from you
I thrive and move within the sounds of agony that I endured because of you
I terrorize the core of power deep inside you
I induce fear and panic in the depths of your innermost source of strength and determination
I melt the crown you wear
I cause your sense of sovereignty and self-importance to crumble and dissipate
Burning through your skull
I cause a fiery sensation that penetrates your head and thoughts
For I'm within
Because I exist within you
I am without but within your fears
I am external to you, but I still exist within your deepest terrors
From the core of Darkness
I come from the center of the darkness
I'm staring back at you
I am watching and observing you closely
Etch 'regret' on the meat of your heart
Inscribe 'regret' onto the visceral part of your heart
Suits by Mac Beth, your pen spills their blood
The pen you use to sign contracts with Mac Beth causes bloodshed and death
Wear your heart on a chain 'round your neck
Suspend your heart on a chain around your neck, exposing yourself to vulnerability
So every demon you meet understands
So every demon you encounter recognizes your weakness and can exploit you
Burning questions
Fiery, impassioned inquiries
Shatter your reality
Devastate and break apart your understanding of the world
Pure as pain
Completely and utterly pure in its agony
Pure evil flows through me
Unadulterated malevolence courses through me
Beasts of heaven are raging toward you
Monstrous entities from the divine realm are charging in your direction
Angels of hell are craving for your flesh
Sinister beings from the underworld are lusting after your body
Drink my blood and rip my heart out
Consume my vital fluids and tear out my beating heart, if you so desire
Be my guest and see what I can see
Feel free to join me and witness what I can perceive
Eat your flesh and become reborn once again
Feast upon your own flesh and be renewed and transformed
Beasts of heaven are racing toward you
Gigantic creatures from the celestial realm are dashing towards you
Beasts of heaven are rising toward you
Colossal entities from above are ascending and approaching you
Unholy saints they contemplate
Unhallowed and malevolent saints ponder their designs
Their thoughts as a dark sacrament
Their musings act as a morbid and sinister rite
Ruler of your living Hell
The sovereign of the Hellish realm that you currently occupy
In the Core of Darkness
Deep in the center of the darkness
