Track By Tracks: Rohan - Suffering With A Smile (2025)
1. Waste Of Life:
Is the first track on the album “Suffering with A Smile”.
It starts off with overtones on the bass before the guitar enters. The first half of the
song has a more melodic side to it than the second half which is fast, brutal, and sick.
The lyrics are about how some people spend their time making stuff up about others
and then slander them to make themselves look better.
2. Fallacy:
Start with a tapping theme before everything hits hard and end in a headbanging
groove.
The Lyrics: are about how there is no truth. We as humans use arguments to make
others believe. But most of the time we just talk to get our will without having any real
proof for our statements.
3. Despised:
Kicks off with a blast beat and keeps a high pace through 3 riff until the bass slides
down to a headbanging groove with a melodic vocal line on top.
The Lyrics: are half reality and half fiction and concern the fact of being adopted.
There are stories that have not been told.
4. Individual Sanity:
Starts with a short intro and enters a groove for the headbangers.
Lyrics: This one is about persons who don´t look within and feel that everyone is
against them and never ever think it could be their own fault.
5. Suffering With A Smile:
A melodic guitar intro chills the mind until everything drops. The song shifts between
grooves, blasts, and breaks.
Lyrics: This is a song where years have gone by searching for someone/something
in the faith of that life that would feel like a paradise. But now years later, I realize it
was a waste of time and actually gave the opposite feeling.
6. Global War:
Start right off aggressively and break into a more thrash/punk-feeling verse before
the intense middle part overtakes the sound.
Lyrics: The title tells a lot, but the deeper meaning is that through media, people’s
negative approach to others, lack of understanding, etc., we as humans just get
prejudice and it could turn into hate and war.
7. Demonized:
This is the slowest song on the album with melodic themes and an aggressive middle
part.
Lyrics: To understand behavior, life, or anything else. You need to see things at arm's length. So this is about looking from the outside and discovering how strange and
ignorant people are behaving.
8. Sacrifice the lies:
This is just a driven track that keeps the momentum through the full song.
Lyrics: This is about the discovery of having chased the wrong things in life and now
everything just is so much better.
9. Never Came Back:
The track just has a certain groove that could remind me of the 90´s.
Lyrics: Sometimes you can be in a bad place and just can´t find your way out and
everything keeps being dark and black. That is what this song is about.
10. Dominate the weak:
The main riff is strong and It will just be hard not to bang your head on this one.
Lyrics: This is about If you believe in things you can´t see and things aren´t going
your way. It should be time to believe in yourself instead.
11. No More Hunger:
The most complex song on the album is the last one. It´s melodic, fast, groovy, and
strong breaks.
Lyrics: You can change your mind and what you think is important to you, if you have
the time and keep focusing on the direction. So this is about changing lanes in life
and finding something better.
