After much acrimony, however, Dominik van Reich quit the band to start his own project amGod, while Peter Devin took the yelworC name and worked on a variety of tracks. Due to a variety of factors (a house fire, the death of his mother, dissatisfaction with record labels), he postponed the release of what was to become the second LP Trinity (a release inspired by Dante's Inferno) until 2004.
Devin is currently working on the follow-ups to Trinity, which are described as inspired by the other stories of Dante's Divine Comedy: Purgatory and Heaven.

Almighty Din
YelworC Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No dreams of bliss
No dreams of promise
Almighty Din
Drops of anguish
Machinery of the devil
No dreams of promise
Machinery of the devil
The lyrics of "Almighty Din" by YelworC are deeply symbolic and reflective of the darker aspects of human existence. The first stanza, "Drops of anguish fall fast and red, No dreams of bliss, No dreams of promise" speaks to the overwhelming despair and hopelessness that can often plague an individual in times of great emotional pain. The imagery of the "drops of anguish" falling fast and red suggests that the individual is in deep emotional agony that is both consuming and unstoppable. The absence of "dreams of bliss" or any sort of positive future prospect indicates that the individual has lost all hope and is consumed by a sense of futility.
The repeated chorus, "Almighty Din, Drops of anguish, Machinery of the devil" serves as a reminder of the insidious nature of emotional suffering. The use of the word "Almighty" suggests that the emotional pain is all-encompassing and all-powerful. The comparison to "machinery of the devil" suggests that this pain is driven by dark and malevolent forces that are beyond the individual's control.
Overall, "Almighty Din" is a deeply powerful and evocative song that illuminates the inner turmoil and struggles that many individuals face in their quest for personal growth and happiness. The lyrics serve as a reminder that emotional pain can be all-consuming and that it can be difficult to find a path towards healing and renewal.
