Following up on the success of their Divebomb Bootcamp Series re-release last year entitled, Victim Of Thought, ENERTIA returns with their 5th album and first of new material in a decade. Piece Of The Factory (DIVE083), will be released via Divebomb Records on July 17th, 2015.
After working practically non-stop for eleven years, which included rehearsing 2-3 times a week, 800+ shows in 20+ states and well over 10,000 CDs sold on six continents, upstate New York pure American Metal band, ENERTIA was at a crossroads. After spending in excess of $25k recording their fourth album, Force, with producer, Neil Kernon, the band had finally exhausted their bank account and didn't have the money or resources to properly record their fifth album. It was time for ENERTIA to regroup.
Fast forward to 2007, after three productive years laying the groundwork for what would become their much anticipated new album everything had almost disastrously ground to a halt, that is, until bassist, Joe Paciolla, made up his mind that these recordings had to be completed no matter the cost. In 2011, the band fortuitously happened upon a great studio and in it the remarkable engineer/producer, Tim Lynch, who was enlisted to help guide ENERTIA through the completion of the album.
Three additional years of hard work and several hundred hours were spent at The Recording Company in Esperance, NY, where ENERTIA created the most diverse, infectious and prolific album of the band’s lengthy career, Piece Of The Factory.
ENERTIA is now almost two decades in from the release of their debut EP, Law Of Three, and after years of hard work and perseverance it would seem this could their end up being their swan song. Could Piece Of The Factory be ENERTIA’s farewell, only time will tell, but delivering the fans an album this powerful indicates they most definitely plan on going out with the biggest bang of their nearly twenty year career.

Weight of the World
Enertia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's no way you could know
One look at me won't reveal what I see, what I feel
I know you can't tell that its my bitter hell I conceal
You don't kn ow what its like being me
We're not all the same
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
I feel the weight
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
You can't reach my soul
I can't fill the hole
My demons unseen, I can't wipe the slate clean
Can't reveal
In all of my haste, all my time was a waste of the truth
You don't know what its like being me
We're not all the same
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
I feel the weight
I feel the weight
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
So take the pain and go
I can't fill the hole
I feel the weight
I feel the weight
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
You don't know what its like being me
We're not all the same
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
I feel the weight
I feel the weight
In Enertia's song "Weight Of The World," the lyrics express a feeling of overwhelming burden and struggle. The opening lines "So take the pain and go, there's no way you could know" suggest a desire to hide the internal struggles from others. The singer explains that even though they may seem fine on the outside, on the inside they are struggling with their own personal demons. They feel like they are carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders, something that is invisible to others. The singer makes it clear that they feel alone and misunderstood, and that others cannot understand what they are going through. The repetition of the phrase "I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders" reinforces the idea of a heavy burden that is difficult to bear.
Throughout the song, the singer continues to emphasize how no one can truly understand what they are going through. They also express a sense of hopelessness in being unable to change their situation. The line "My demons unseen, I can't wipe the slate clean" suggests they are trapped in their own struggles and unable to escape them. By the end of the song, the repeated statement of "I feel the weight" becomes more desperate, as they plead for the pain to go away and acknowledge that they cannot fill the void within them. Overall, "Weight Of The World" is a powerful expression of internal struggle and a feeling of being trapped in one's own pain.
