    TERMINATRYX - “III” Track Listing :

    Chapter I :

    For a period of about 3 years after guitarist Patrick retired from the band, Terminatryx was a 3-piece consisting of Sonja, Ronnie and Paul, and in that period birthed several tracks, but only completed 3, one from each member’s perspective -

    1. DESTROY
    2. SUIKER
    3. BLAME

    The songs never got widely released, just some early mixes on Bandcamp - new mixed singles of these tracks were released on that platform only, leading up to the full album release date of 2 September 2022 -


    Chapter II :

    Each band member also has other projects and the decision was made to include a track from each of those, including:
    Sonja’s ISOBEL project, a dark-acoustic duo (with Nerine Dorman),
    Ronnie’s Industrial-Rock / Experimental solo project ISOLASIE,
    and Paul’s bass-guitar-only Tekno-Grind project F8 -

    4. WAVES (Isobel)
    5. HAIL AND FIRE (Isolasie)
    6. BornTorn (F8)


    Chapter III :

    As with all previous Terminatryx albums, each track gets a remyx - this third chapter will consist of the first trio of tracks remyxed -

    7. DESTROY (Xtermin8 Remix)
    8. SUIKER (Somerfaan Remix)
    9. BLAME (Grimehouse Remix)


    So “III” is almost a compilation of sorts, but integrally TX-linked.
    It also represents the music done before former member Bret rejoined the band, clearing the slate to move onto new things.

about

DESTROY is part of the first 3-song chapter of Terminatryx "III" (3), created during the pre-pandemic period when the band was a 3-piece.

'Destroy' is a call to action against the current world order. An urging to those who actively seek to take back their autonomy, to guard and fight against corrupt practices and to reject the current world order. The lyrics not only reflect the current South African context, but also a global context. The listeners are encouraged to make their own decisions, to reject and actively oppose corrupt practices, fear mongering and to not follow blindly.

"Destroy”

Lyrics by Sonja Ruppersberg
c 2019

We are the world we are the hostage
Our fate is tied to their control
We are the ones who hold the power
We see the blackness of their souls

Forever tied to their obsessions
Forever doomed out of the light
Bereft of self-realization
Blindfolded we are sent to fight

Get up! Destroy! The fear! The ploy!
Get up! Release! The power! The peace!

We are the pieces on the play field
We are the legion we’re the pawns
Only a movement of the masses
Can take the night into the dawn

Take down the hate take down their leaders
Forsake the hate reject their law
Pick up the cause and join the legion
Become the fire be the thaw

Get up! Destroy! The fear! The ploy!
Set-up! Repeat! Victory! Defeat!

Get up! Destroy! The fear! The ploy!
Get up! Release! The power! The peace!

We are the world we are the hostage
Our fate is tied to their control
We are the ones who hold the power
We see the blackness of their souls

Forever tied to their obsessions
Forever doomed out of the light
Bereft of self-realization
Blindfolded we are sent to fight

We are the pieces on the play field
We are the legion we’re the pawns
Only a movement of the masses
Can take the night into the dawn

Take down the hate take down their leaders
Forsake the hate reject their law
Pick up the cause and join the legion
Become the fire be the thaw

Get up! Destroy! The fear! The ploy!

Get up! Release! The power! The peace!
Set-up! Repeat! Victory! Defeat!

With a dark blend of female-fronted Alternative / Industrial / Metal / Rock flavours, Terminatryx is an anomaly with an unexpected and invigorating sound. ... more
