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

the bullet' s fired. I heard no sound
If life is a blessing don't let me be
It's when you smile I cease to dream.
Show me the Point of no return
I've chosen to draw a different end
I silently scream. I've broken the pain
I have seen what's there to be seen
From abandoned dreams you all feed and breed.
Infested core spreading so fast
don't shut your eyes this pain is real
Cathartic threat cuts me in half
open your eyes this pain is real...
bridge:
How true are my own lies?
No more. I've realised
This life is mine for me to seize
Show me the Point of no return
I have chosen to draw a different end
The way out is within myself
Freedom exists in my own cell
Always my fears kept me away
I silently scream. I've broken the pain

The lyrics to Biomechanical's song "Point of No Return" are dark and introspective, reflecting a sense of inner turmoil and a desire for escape. The opening lines evoke a lingering sense of danger and regret, with the taste of smoke still in the mouth and the realization that a metaphorical bullet has been fired without sound. The singer questions the value of life and finds solace in someone else's smile, which temporarily suspends their longing for something beyond their current reality.
The chorus, "Show me the Point of no return, I've chosen to draw a different end," speaks to the singer's desire to break free from their fears and embrace a different path. They have come to realize that their own lies and self-imposed limitations have held them back, and they now understand that their life is theirs to seize and shape.
The second verse emphasizes the pain and despair that come from abandoned dreams and the infectious spread of negativity. The singer urges others not to turn a blind eye to this pain, encouraging them to open their eyes and confront the reality before them.
The bridge further emphasizes the singer's transformation, no longer willing to believe their own lies. They have realized that freedom and the way out lie within themselves, contained in their own metaphorical cell. The final lines of the song express a sense of acceptance and transcendence, as the singer embraces their true self and desires to be seen as they truly are, even if it means diving into the unknown depths of the Abyss.

The taste of smoke still in my mouth
The lingering remnants of past experiences continue to affect me
the bullet's fired. I heard no sound
The damaging action has been taken, yet it remains unnoticed
If life is a blessing don't let me be
If life is meant to be a positive experience, let me not be an exception
It's when you smile I cease to dream
Your happiness has the power to dissolve my own desires
Show me the Point of no return
Reveal to me the irreversible moment of decision
I've chosen to draw a different end
I have decided to create a distinct outcome
Always my fears kept me away
My anxieties have consistently prevented me from moving forward
I silently scream. I've broken the pain
Internally, I express my anguish without making a sound. I have now overcome the suffering
I have seen what's there to be seen
I have observed the realities that exist
From abandoned dreams you all feed and breed
You sustain and propagate from forsaken aspirations
Infested core spreading so fast
The corrupted center is rapidly expanding
Don't shut your eyes this pain is real
Do not avert your gaze, this agony truly exists
Cathartic threat cuts me in half
The therapeutic danger cleaves me into two
Open your eyes this pain is real
Awaken your perception, this suffering is genuine
How true are my own lies?
To what extent do my self-deceptions hold validity?
No more. I've realised
No longer. I have come to understand
This life is mine for me to seize
I have the responsibility to take control of my own existence
The way out is within myself
The solution resides internally
Freedom exists in my own cell
I can find liberation within my own confinement

Without fear, I have intruded upon the realm of sadness
Eternally hollow....I descend into the Abyss
Perpetually empty, I now plunge into the depths
I think I am losing my mind
I believe that I am losing my sanity
There's no return!
There is no way back

The taste of smoke still in my mouth
the bullet's fired. I heard no sound
If life is a blessing don't let me be
It's when you smile I cease to dream.
El sabor de humo todavía en la boca
de la bala disparados. He oído ningún sonido
Si la vida es una bendición, no me dejan ser
Es cuando usted sonrisa dejo de soñar.
Show me the Point of no return
I've chosen to draw a different end
Muéstrame el punto de no retorno
He optado por hacer un final diferente
Always my fears kept me away
I silently scream. I've broken the pain
Siempre mis temores me mantuvo lejos
En silencio grito. He roto el dolor
I have seen what's there to be seen
From abandoned dreams you all feed and breed.
He visto lo que hay que ver
De los sueños abandonados a todos alimentarse y reproducirse.
Infested core spreading so fast
don't shut your eyes this pain is real
Cathartic threat cuts me in half
open your eyes this pain is real...
núcleo infestados difusión tan rápido
no cierra los ojos el dolor es real
amenaza catártico me corta por la mitad
abre los ojos el dolor es real ...
[Bridge:]
How true are my own lies?

No más. Me he dado cuenta
Esta vida es la mía para mí para aprovechar
Show me the Point of no return
I have chosen to draw a different end
Muéstrame el punto de no retorno
He decidido hacer un final diferente
The way out is within myself
Freedom exists in my own cell
La salida está dentro de mí
La libertad existe en mi propia celda
Always my fears kept me away
I silently scream. I've broken the pain
Siempre mis temores me mantuvo lejos
En silencio grito. He roto el dolor
