After 3 releases in North America, "Where Broken Angels Lie", "Forward" and "Conflict", The Azoic grabbed the attention of the German label, Infacted Recordings. On February 2, 2004, The Azoic debuted in Europe with their release, 'Forward + Conflict', which sold out in 6 months! They quickly made a mark and moved up to the no. 4 spot on the DAC [German Alternative Charts] and no. 2 on the DUC [Dutch Alternative Charts]. In 2004, The Azoic released their fourth full-length CD, 'Illuminate' and continued to polish their trademark style, even adding a cover of "Obsession", the 80's Animotion classic, with guest vocalist Frank Spinath of Seabound.
After a video game release (featuring "Conflict (Turmoil Mix)" on Microsoft XBox's 'Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 3' alongside vocal appearances featuring Kristy and several shows across the US and Europe, The Azoic continued to ascend. With 5 full-length releases, 2 EP's, 2 tours and over 50 shows, RMP chartings [US], 4 on the DAC charts + bullet on Native25 [Germany], 2 on the DUC charts [Netherlands], several magazine and webzine interviews (such as Zillo, Sonic Seducer, Side-Line, DNA Six, Industrial Nation, Gothic Beauty), a video, and appearances on numerous compilations, both nationally and internationally, The Azoic continued at the forefront of their genre.
The Azoic went on hiatus in 2006 after the departure of keyboardist Steve Laskarides; singer Kristy Venrick has since reformed the band with new keyboardist Eric E. and drummer, guitarist and keyboardist Andreas K. 2008 brought the release of 'Re:Illumination [the mixes]. 2012 will bring the band's new Corruption - EP as well as the Corruption music video funded by the fans via kickstarter.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Conflict confusion distrust
You taught me right
You taught me wrong
You taught me to always be strong
You paved the way
You showed me fear
I saw one thing and heard another
I was too young to understand
I never knew what to believe
I feel so deceived
Confusion in my head
Don't understand all that you said
And now I see the light
It's times like these I realize
But how can I read these
Mixed messages that you did bring
And forgive all the pain you cause
All of the suffering
You taught me right
You taught me wrong
You taught me to always be strong
You paved the way
You showed me fear
I know now, what wasn't real
I saw one thing and heard another
I was too young to understand
I never knew what to believe
I feel so deceived
Keep my perspective straight...
Keep me away from hate...
Keep my eyes uncovered...
You taught me right
You taught me wrong
You taught me to always be strong
You paved the way
You showed me fear
I know now, what wasn't real
I saw one thing and heard another
I was too young to understand
I never knew what to believe
I feel so deceived
Conflict, confusion, distrust...
Conflict confusion distrust
I feel so deceived!
The Azoic's song Conflict delves into a theme of betrayal and deception. The lyrics start with the repetition of the words 'Conflict, confusion, distrust' which sets the tone for the rest of the lyrics. The singer of the song talks about being taught right and wrong, to always be strong, and to keep perspective straight, only to realize that what was taught wasn't real. They also mention being too young to understand and not knowing what to believe. This alludes to a sense of vulnerability and being manipulated.
The second verse talks about the confusion that the singer is feeling in their head and how they fail to comprehend what is being said. They mention that they see the light and realize the mixed messages that were being sent to them. They struggle with forgiving the person who caused them pain and suffering. This struggle can be interpreted as the conflict within the singer's own emotions.
The chorus repeats the same lines as the beginning, reiterating the feelings of conflict, confusion, and distrust. The song ends with the singer exclaiming that they feel deceived. Overall, the lyrics show how the singer was manipulated and deceived while growing up, which has caused them turmoil and pain.
