CORRODED (SWE) BIO :
THE STORY SO FAR CORRODED started out in 2004 and after a couple of jam sessions the pieces of the jigsaw started to show a picture, it was dark, it was heavy, it was angry and it looked good. It was soon clear that the path of the band would be in the heritage of the heavy rock acts of the 70..s with additional layers of a more modern sound. CORRODED has established themselves as a force of nature when it comes to performing live with a vast track-record of successful gigs under their belt, including a U.K.tour. Late 2008 the fruitful collaboration with platiumproducer Patrik Frisk started out with the heavy rotated first single "Time and Again" as the first result. The debut album "Eleven Shades of Black" entered the Swedish chart with a 2 spot on the very first week and with written reviews equivalent to standing ovations, you can tell that CORRODED is going places.
The characteristic of the band is the heavy yet melodic three-part guitar work combined with a suggestive and tight rhythm section and of course the unmistakable razorblade sharp voice of Jens Westin.
In late 2009 national TV station TV4 handpicked "Time and Again" to accompany the promotion of their blockbuster show "Expedition Robinson" internationally known as "Survivor".
This story has just begun, the band is still CORRODED.
CORRODED (TUR) BIO :
In the season of autumn of the year 1997, the band appeared at the underground scene in Ankara, Türkiye, through the workship of Cenker (guitars), Levent (bass), Tolga (vocals) and Emrehan (drums). The gain of the hardwork within one year, was the release of the demo named "Executed In One Second" , which included four tracks and recorded in Izmir, within the mood of the cold and beatiful sea atmosphere. Neither the bad quality of the sound , nor the insufficience of the promotion opportunities prevented dignity, increase of the fans and the perserverence to make a better one, so by following the circumstances by the year of 99, the band again went in to the studio in Ankara, with a new bassist called Engin who joined us after the break-up with Levent, and recorded two new songs which had to be an experimental promo-tape for publishing some records, radios, distributions and zines. The eagerness of the two years, opened a new period for the band, that is the period 99-00-01, with many gigs, interviews, contacts, correspondal, which lead the band to record a full-lenght album. It was the summer of 2001, when the band decided within great opportunities to go for it. In a comfortable air and place, around friends with respect the band came to it. The band decided to name this beatiful recording, which is done in the end of the summer of 2002, "Psychotogenic" which has 9 things to say about sickness, anger, brutality and chaos...

Corroded Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To each his own, no more to fear.
Go and do, as you please,
What must be done, to part with ease.
It must be done my way.
It must be done your way.
We are what we are or else we drown.
We neither yield nor bow,
It is so heavy this gilded crown.
One step back will lead astray,
To find our path, our own true way.
When left is right and right is wrong,
To run not walk you must be strong.
It must be done our way.
It must be done anyway.
The complications starts now,
We are what we are or else we drown.
We neither yield nor bow,
It is so heavy this god damn crown.
The chain that broke, that bound us here,
Has left it's mark, that won't disappear.
A rearview look to see the shame,
It matters not it's all the same.
This is the only way.....
The song "Drown" by the Swedish metal band Corroded talks about breaking free from the chains that bind us and facing the challenges of life. The first verse asks to break the spells and fears that hold us back and to follow our own path in life. The lyrics suggest that one's own way of doing things should be respected and that it is necessary to be strong to survive in this world.
The second verse acknowledges that complications will arise in life and that we have to face them head-on to avoid drowning. It speaks of the heavy burden of responsibility that we carry, as symbolized by the gilded crown. The lyrics suggest that we must strive to find our own path and not let anyone else dictate our journey through life.
The final verse speaks of the chains that have bound us but then broken, leaving a mark that reminds us of our past. It suggests that looking back might cause shame, but ultimately, it doesn't matter since we are who we are today. The final line speaks of accepting that there is only one way to overcome life's challenges, and that is to follow our own path.
