Lyrics:
“'The Generation Of Danger' is a concept album about a genius scientist who gets fed up with being swept under the rug. After the multi-billion-dollar corporation that employs him takes credit for his latest, award-winning invention, he snaps and retaliates against them by forcing them to take part in the greatest experiment the world of science has ever seen.”
Tallah's cruelly ferocious new album 'The Generation Of Danger', due for release on 18 November 2022 via Earache Records and recorded once more with producer Josh Schroeder at Random Awesome Studio, will only serve to extend their fascinatingly dark nu-core metal further into the metal community, continuing to build the beast Tallah have created and set loose.
Max Portnoy says of the new album: “'The Generation Of Danger' is a new era for Tallah’s music. We’ve gotten overall heavier with this album, while tapping into elements that we’ve never experimented with before. There’s a lot of new sounds and songwriting here to showcase what else we can do without sacrificing the heaviness or core sound that we established with 'Matriphagy'.”
Justin continues: “'The Generation Of Danger' is a completely new and fresh concept for us, both lyrically and instrumentally. We wanted to take what made 'Matriphagy' so good and jack it up to 150%. The tracks are monstrous, daunting, and the story the music tells dives into the idea of people hiding what they truly desire until someone else comes along and forces it to surface."
As with 'Matriphagy', 'The Generation Of Danger' offers fans more than just an album of pioneering nu-core metal. Whilst it will most certainly be lauded for Justin's acclaimed aptitude for embodying numerous characters and emotions in his outstanding vocal shape-shifting, celebrated for its breathtakingly turbulent dynamics and exemplified for the way it melds the ever-blossoming ingenuity of Tallah's intrepid musicians, 'The Generation Of Danger' will reward those who delve deeper into the album and its supplementary content.

LYRICS:
O’ this old—this ol’ hen’s been through enough of your shit!
And I’ll say when it’s over!
I’ve achieved many things—great things!
Never once did I get recognition
You hop like somebody who can jump the world
Hop high, little bunny!
I’m about to share your dark secret
I suggest we begin
Watch how I change your life with the push of a finger...
Now, for a lobotomy!
What’s been done has been done!
That’s the difference between who you were
And who you will be
I’ve always worked outside the lines of rule books
That’s how I got inside your mind
To see that you strut the platform to hide yourself
-So proud of the things you’ve done
-Of the measures you’ve taken
Ever since you were a kid,
You were told you could jump to the moon
If you really put your mind to it
-If you really put the time into it,
You could do it!
You could possibly achieve many things—great things!
Do it all for the recognition!
Make it fact
You could finally save the world!
And I admit that I saw that inside you
I’ll bring it out because that’s what I do
If it doesn’t make sense,
I’ll find a better way—a way to make you evolve
And when you feel like the sky is collapsing,
You can't believe it!
-It’s only on you
If it doesn’t make sense,
I’ll find a better way—a way to make you evolve
Your blood will flow warm today
You’ll act like you’re scared and ashamed,
But how I know the truth!
That’s the real you!
-Buried down deep is the crux
Where you soak in the recognition
When I rip out that core,
It’ll feel like you’re stuck in a lake full of scum
-Full of shit—full of muck
And you won’t be hopping out...
And I admit that I saw that inside you
I’ll bring it out because that’s what I do
If it doesn’t make sense,
I’ll find a better way—a way to make you evolve
And when you feel like the sky is collapsing,
You can't believe it!
-It’s only on you
If it doesn’t make sense,
I’ll find a better way—a way to make you evolve
I might slip and cut you if you do not sit still
