In 2000 Grendel's first promo CD was released which included the Dutch dance floor hit 'Strangers'. Within a very short period of time the promo was being played at many locations throughout the Netherlands and internationally.
To follow this up, the "End of Ages EP" was released in 2002 and marked new territory for Grendel with tracks such as the international hit title-track "End of Ages", the pounding "Catastrophe" and the intriguing "Noisome". With the unorthodox and original use of orchestration, obscure samples incorporated with harsh and pounding EBM structures this release again recieved almost only great reactions from both the media and listeners and would set Grendel's sound for the future.
In 2003, Grendel recorded their second full-length release, entitled "Prescription : Medicide". This album took another step deeper into the world of [Grendel] with it's complex, yet harsh, pounding & danceable structures, dismal orchestration and distressed nature. It meant a big breakthrough for the band, recieving many great reviews, becoming album of the month in a.o. Zillo and Orkus plus reaching top 5 positions in underground charts world wide.
Later, "Soilbleed" was released, which instantly became an unmissable dancefloor classic. This gained a huge amount of support, great reviews and maintained top 5 positions in a.o. the DAC & DUC for maximum periods. As a consequence of this EP's success, the band was highly occupied with performances and tours world wide for the next year and a half.
In 2006, VLRK and new members found time to work on their third full length album entitled "Harsh Generation". This album marked new territory for the band, which a more matured sound and style, gaining more support and success & taking them to the top of the genre. After it's release in early 2007, this album remained on top 5 positions (often peaking at no. 3) on the DAC and GEWC and remained there for maximum periods of time.
Finally, Grendel is back in the studio, producing their upcoming EP "Chemicals & Circuitry" plus yet to be titled album, both set for release this summer on Infacted, Metropolis and Gravitator Records. With these new releases, Grendel verges further into new territories and continues to deliver cutting edge harsh EBM!

Out of My Mind
Grendel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Has come to an end
Blinded by hope
Lost common sense
In silence
Brooding on your fears
But never the spine
To confront your tears
The clock was ticking
The timer set
You fucked up your chance
To place the bet
Won't waste my time on this and fight
You know why?
Cause you're out of my mind tonight
Out of my heart
Out of my mind
Just letting go
I've got this damn fine feeling tonight
Out of my heart
Out of my mind
Good times will flow
I've got this damn fine feeling tonight
The lyrics of Grendel's song "Out of My Mind" describe a situation in which the singer has reached the end of a one-way street in a relationship. The singer has blind hope for the relationship but has lost common sense. They are brooding on their fears but don't have the courage to confront their tears. Despite this, the clock is ticking, and the timer is set, and the singer has decided to let go of the relationship instead of fighting for it because the other person has messed up their chance to make it work. The singer states that they have this "damn fine feeling tonight" and that they are out of the other person's mind and heart.
The song can be interpreted as being about reaching the end of a toxic relationship and finally realizing that the other person is not worth fighting for. The singer has accepted that the relationship is over and that they are moving on, and although they may still have some sadness, they are ultimately looking forward to good times to come. The lyrics also suggest that the other person was not emotionally available or willing to work on the relationship, and thus it was left to the singer to end things.

This one way street
I have been going in one direction and cannot turn back
Has come to an end
My journey has ended
Blinded by hope
I was unable to see clearly because I was hopeful
Lost common sense
I made an irrational decision due to my hopefulness
In silence
I was silent and kept my thoughts to myself
Brooding on your fears
I was reflecting on my own fears
But never the spine
I lacked the courage or bravery to confront my fears
To confront your tears
I was unable to face or deal with my own emotional pain
The clock was ticking
Time was running out
The timer set
The deadline was established
You fucked up your chance
You missed your opportunity and made a mistake
To place the bet
To take a risk in pursuit of a goal
Won't waste my time on this and fight
I will not waste my time on this issue and engage in conflict
You know why?
I will explain the reason for my decision
Cause you're out of my mind tonight
I have made the decision to forget about you for the night
Out of my heart
You no longer hold an emotional connection to me
Out of my mind
You are no longer in my thoughts
Just letting go
I am releasing any attachment I may have had towards you
I've got this damn fine feeling tonight
I am experiencing a positive emotion and feeling good tonight
Good times will flow
I believe that positive experiences will come my way
