CORRODED - “The More Things Change“ (Official Lyric Video)
ROCK / HARD ROCK
Stream ’The More Things Change’ via optional platform:
CORRODED is a heavy metal band from Ånge, Sweden. The break came in 2009 with the song Time And Again and debut album ’Eleven Shades of Black’. Since then they’ve released four more albums, toured relentlessly (including several European tours, both on their own and as support for bands like Airbourne), had the théme song for the Swedish TV show Survivor (Expedition Robinson in Sweden) and music in the globally popular video game Battlefield. Their latest (5th) album ’Bitter’ was released in 2019, was followed by a European tour and ended the year with a slight change in line-up (long time member Tomas Andersson left the band).
As for most bands, the pandemic hit hard, but the band dug themselves into a black hole and recorded their sixth album - ’Plague’. They comment:
”-We’ve got 5 ”children”...each and everyone as much important as the other ones…but this one is our lovechild, our very special ”late bloomer” or ”trailing child”, born out of the anxiety and boredom of the plague…and, except from mastering, all done by ourselves…welcome to the dark soul of the ride..“
The second taste of the new album was the single ’The More Things Change’ and it set the bar high and hard for what’s to come. The drummer Per Soläng writes:
- “The more things change…well, how the song ended up is something completely different from how we, initially, started to work with it as a riff…and here it is, pretty much explains how a song can change from the very embryo to a full grown song…and as a matter of fact, one of the first ideas for this album, enjoy.”

LYRICS
Crash and burn, twist every turn.
Got to let blood flow free.
Rip and tear, feel what’s inside
See what you want to see.
The things we do, just to make us feel.
Live the pain, to make things real.
Skinned to the bone, raw to the touch
Hard to take, it’s all too much.
If everything around me change,
then why should I?
And if it all just remains the same,
then why should I?
Smash and grab, take what you see
The hunger is all that you feel.
Crack the whip, the flesh getting stripped
Hear what you want to hear
All we are, is the embodied fear.
Living blight, to everything that’s near
The paranoid, the acolytes
Hard to take, just turn off the lights
If everything around me change,
then why should I?
And if it all just remains the same,
then why should I?
If everything around me change,
then why should I?
And if it all just remains the same,
then why should I?
Cut myself to the core just to see if I bleed
A quick lobotomy make the memories recede.
If everything around me change,
then why should I?
And if it all just remains the same,
then why should I?
