Cleveland's extreme metal masters, Ringworm, have gifted fans with another taste of their 9th album, Seeing Through Fire with the track, "Thought Crimes." Vocalist Human Furnace explains that the song embodies speed and aggression, capturing the struggle to maintain independent thoughts in a world dominated by controlled marketing and forced tribalism:
"'Thought Crimes.' Speed. Aggression. Attack. All the things that come to mind, sonically, when I think of this song. It's a manic song. It makes you move. Lyrically, it's not a political song. It's about trying to have your own thoughts amongst an ocean of controlled marketing, algorithms, and forced tribalism. It's a natural emotional response to being sculpted, directed, and sometimes, ordered, to believe in one thing or the other."
