In 2007, the band announced the release of a career-spanning retrospective called "Don't look back", to be accompanied by a tour. Following the completion of that tour in late August 2008, the group entered an indefinite hiatus.
The brothers Wingenfelder reformed as Wingenfelder & Wingenfelder and have released three albums and a b-sides album, with plans record a fourth in 2017. Rainer Schumann released a solo album under the name Schumann. Christof Stein formed Wohnraumhelden and has released three albums under that name.
In 2016, the band reformed for their 30th anniversary, and released a new track. Additional new tracks were included in the band's new retrospective "30 - The Ultimate Best Of Collection."

Come On
Fury In The Slaughterhouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why has it always to end up with tears
A little problem and soon discussions start
We bang our heads and we always forget our hearts
Somehow, somewhere
I guess I had this all before
Somehow, somewhere
Come on, come on let's go home
Give the sinking ship a drink
I think it's better if we go
Somehow my thoughts are running slow
Will feel sorry when I awake
So you better give me a break
Take your brown eyes and put'em in a glass
Put some icecubes in and watch the rotting mess
Look in my blue ones and you know I never lie
Give me a drink and I say to you let's have another try
Somehow, somewhere...
You better give me a break
You better give me
You better give me a break...
The song "Come On" by Fury In The Slaughterhouse is a reflection on a tumultuous seven-year-long relationship. The singer recounts the frequent breakdowns in communication that occur between them, often leading to arguments and tears. They seem to struggle with balancing their rational minds with their emotional hearts. The lyrics evoke a sense of weariness and resignation to the cycle of their relationship, as the singer suggests that they should just go home and have a drink to forget about it all.
The chorus of "Come On" is somewhat ambiguous but seems to suggest that the singer has been through similar situations before. They express a sense of déjà vu, as if they are stuck in an endless loop of arguments and misunderstandings. The last line of the chorus, "Somehow, somewhere, I guess I had this all before," reinforces this idea.
The second half of the song takes a more surreal turn as the singer talks about putting their partner's brown eyes in a glass and watching them rot. This macabre image is contrasted with the assurance that the singer will never lie, followed by a plea to try again. The chorus is repeated, but this time the singer pleads with their partner to give them a break.
Overall, "Come On" is a poignant and melancholy reflection on the ups and downs of a long-term relationship. The lyrics suggest a sense of frustration and exhaustion with the cyclical nature of arguments, despite the singer's attempts to keep their emotions in check.

Why has it always to end up with tears
We always end up in tears, why does that have to happen?
A little problem and soon discussions start
A small issue arises and we start having discussions about it

Come on, come on let's go home
Let's leave this place and go home
Give the sinking ship a drink
Let's try to save what is falling apart by having a drink and trying to repair things
I think it's better if we go
I believe it's better if we part ways
Somehow my thoughts are running slow
My mind is foggy and I can't think clearly
Will feel sorry when I awake
I will regret this decision when I wake up

You should let me have some space
Take your brown eyes and put'em in a glass
Put your brown eyes in a glass to preserve them
Put some icecubes in and watch the rotting mess

You should give me
You better give me a break...
You should give me some space
