Formed by Max Green (best known as the Co-Founder/bassist of Escape the Fate) in 2019, the Las Vegas band Violent New Breed is bringing a fresh new take on the metal genre.
Following the release of the bands aptly titled debut album, "Bad Reputation", VNB was set to tour when the pandemic struck, putting an end to those plans and ultimately the old line-up. If Violent New Breed is known for anything, it’s a relentless dedication to leaving their mark on the music industry.
Refusing to give up, Green recruited Garrett Lowery (Lead Guitar) and Nicholas Ray (Drums) and got to writing. The trio quickly caught the eyes and ears of Bobby Schubenski (Owner of Blackcraft Cult Clothing) and Danny Wimmer (Danny Wimmer Presents). This immediately led them to be guests on the highly successful “That Space Zebra Show” hosted by Bobby Schubenski on Twitch, as well as their own mini series called “The Vocalist” where open auditions were held to find the band a new singer. After a grueling competition, tons of submissions, and the help of an all too impressive audience of over 100k+ viewers, the band finally found their singer, Albert Schweizer.
Following the completion of the new line-up, VNB has announced their first single “Bloody Lip Season” which was released March 4, 2022. Aggressive and dynamic riffs paired with infectiously catchy vocal melodies, lays a ground-breaking foundation for the listener to be fully immersed in what is now, Violent New Breed.
Sanctuary
Violent New Breed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My every bone I'd break
Throw myself
To the fire
To shield you from the flames
Your every pill I'd take
While you're coursing through my
Viens
You, you, make the darkness feel like home
Two souls inhabit one body
The closest I'll ever be to holy
The closest, the closest
Sing me to comatose
I'll dream of just your face
And if you pull the plug
I'll wait for you beyond the grave
Take the air from my lungs
To cast away the rain
Drown me in your being
I'll sleep in peace among the waves
I, I, always have darkness in tow
You, you, make the darkness feel like home
Two souls inhabit one body
The closest I'll ever be to holy
Terrified to let you in
Terrified to let you in
Cause you'll see the hell
Where my demons thrive
Sanctuary
You are my only
Breath of relief
Saved me from lonely
Just like a thief
You stole my worries
And gave to me
Your heart for eternity
Sanctuary
You are my only
Breath of relief
Saved me from lonely
Just like a thief
You stole my worries
And gave to me
Your heart for eternity
I, I, always have darkness in tow
You, you, make the darkness feel like home
Two souls inhabit one body
The closest I'll ever be to holy
The closest I'll ever be to holy
The closest, the closest
The song "Sanctuary" by Violent New Breed expresses a deep sense of admiration towards someone who has saved the singer from a life of loneliness and despair. The lyrics vividly describe the extent to which the singer is willing to go to protect and preserve that person's well-being. They would be willing to sacrifice their own life and undergo unimaginable torment just to shield this person from harm. The line "Two souls inhabit one body" signifies a deep spiritual connection between the two individuals, who feel like they are meant to be together. The idea of having darkness within oneself is a recurring motif, as the singer acknowledges their own demons and fears, which this person helps them to overcome.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of vulnerability and fear of being exposed to this person, as the singer is afraid of revealing the true extent of their own emotional turmoil. However, they find solace and safety in this person's presence, describing them as a "sanctuary". The song reaches its climax with the repeated line "You are my only breath of relief, saved me from lonely", which conveys a deep gratitude for this person's presence in their life.
