(3) Violation is a New Zealand project that The Tru Virus started up about 2001 but never really got off the ground for many years but with many ideas and riffs just floating around. I
n September 2008 Simon Bell entered the fray for a solitary jam, he liked what he heard and a few weeks later Steve and Simon "Caveman" Bell threw a whole heap of ideas together and got down 2 songs and some covers in the space of about 3 hours. During that week Simon got down some lyrics for the first song. Becca Crowe now enters the scene with the voice of a dark angel wafting through the air, intoxicating to some and damn near beheading some with raw power.
Shortly after this Simon and Steve get in contact with a very skillful, promising young lead guitarist in the form of Logan Ellis. The mindboggling sweeps, the superfast guitar work, the breathtaking skill, Logan is one of the best of his age. Just before the first practice as a full group Steve gets a phone number from a friend about a vocalist named Kieran Thomas. He came along to the first practice and had a listen to the band and got to know everyone, on the second practice he officially joined the band with his mix of raw, powerful voice and screams, he will blow you away.
In October Simon stumbles across a very dedicated, enthusiatic bassist in the form of Kelly Bowen. She met everyone and came along to her first practice and really liked what the band was doing and decided it was definitely for her, the band welcomed her with open instruments and the legacy of the full band begins... Beware.

(3) Violation was a Melodic Death Metal Band from Germany. Was founded in 1993 by Alexander Schödel (guit) and Wolfgang Dreiseitel (vox). Two years later the line-up was complete with Martin Saalfrank (bass), Claudia Reich (keys), Andreas Schmidt (drums) and Larsen Beattie (guitar). The six recorded the one and only demo tape "Carbonized" in 1996. The tape earned a lot of good critics and sold 600 copies.
In october 1997 the band travelled to Sweden, to record the debut album with Mikael Hedlund and Peter Tägtgren without a deal in hands. "Beyond The Graves" was released in February 1998 on Last Episode Records.
Soon afterwards, band and company went seperate ways. The new label was Invasion Records and Abyss Studio was booked again for August 1999. Meanwhile the line-up changed: Marcus Fiessmann replaced singer Barney, Olli Riedel replaced Larsen on the guitar and Jens Löhner became the new bass player. In the middle of 1999, due to personal problems of the management, Invasion showed no signs of life anymore, so they went to Sweden once again without a record deal.
In early 2000 a new label was found. Red Stream Records (USA) released "Moonlight´s Child", which was produced by Tommy Tägtgren, in may 2000 in Europe and America.
In 2005 the band called it quits after Alex Schödel and keyboarder Claudia Reich decided to leave the band. However, the remaining members continued on with a new project named "Hellscape".
Hellscape is about to release their debut album "Downwards" in the next weeks!

Losin' It
Violation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can't fucking stand it
Take a good look at me
You like to think
That i'm fooling around
But you never understand
What i'm talking about
Laying it down
I told you whats up
Better think twice
Before coming around
Got nothing to offer
From the attitude you give
Better second guess yourself
And the way you live
What do you think this is
Some kind of joke?
You're pushing my anger
Through the roof
You think you're bad shit
With your nose in the air
You say i give a shit
But i dont fucking care
The lyrics to Violation's song "Losin' It" express frustration and exhaustion with someone who doesn't seem to understand or respect the singer's feelings or opinions. The singer starts off by declaring that they are "sick and tired" and "can't fucking stand it," indicating that this person has pushed them to their breaking point. The singer then tells this person to take a good look at them, seemingly challenging them to see the truth.
The person being addressed seems to believe that the singer is "fooling around," which frustrates the singer even more because they feel like they're not being taken seriously. The singer then emphasizes that the other person "never understand[s] what [they're] talking about." The second verse is more assertive, with the singer stating that they have already "told [the other person] what's up" and that they should "think twice before coming around." The singer seems to believe that the other person has nothing to offer, and urges them to "second guess" themselves and the way they live.
The chorus of the song is particularly intense, with the singer asking the other person if they think the situation is a joke. They accuse the other person of "pushing my anger through the roof" and assert that they "don't fucking care" about the other person's opinions or feelings. Throughout the song, the singer seems frustrated with someone who is not taking them seriously or listening to what they have to say.
