Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album
The EP „Strong“ contains 6 groovy guitar and bass-oriented alternative rock/metal songs, which were recorded during the last few months. As the singer switches from more alternative rock verses to fully screamed parts, the energetic drums add modern dynamics to the album. There are no inherently soft tracks, yet all driven by the concept and lyrics of falling down or failing in life but getting up again and stand fighting for your goals.

„I’m more than happy now that „Strong“ will be released very soon and that I had the opportunity to work with and getting support from three awesome musicians from all over Europe (Ukraine, United Kingdom, and France) to get this whole thing done. I recorded the final bass parts in Brussels at the well-known JetStudio which was a huge pleasure for me.

1.	Strong 03:53	lyrics	buy track
You are in the pit, watched by all these people. Unarmed, you're terrorized, you have to dance with the fear until the end. Keep your head high, whatever the pain you feel. Follow your goal now, without fear. The bell is ringing, the first round begins. Between two pairs of eyes, analyze the moment. You need to realize, every move you make can betray you. You are observed, hunted by the hunter. Be strong! Every kick you take may put you down to the ground. Keep your head high, whatever the pain you feel. Follow your goal now, without fear. As a fighter, you get to fight for your life. Don't do it for the pride but for yourself. Honour is nothing for a dead man. This fight is named life. (2x) This colossus will not let you go. Be smart and strong, no one is invincible. Under the spotlight, give us a show. Victory is for you! You will build your own way, No one will do it for you Keep your head high, whatever the pain you feel. Follow your goal now, without fear. Keep your head high, whatever the pain you feel. Follow your goal now, without fear. Keep your head high. (3x) No one will do it for you.
2.	Back off 03:34 video	lyrics	buy track
Deep in the dark, suffocating. Something pushes me to the ground. Unable to move, the oppression is too strong. My strength is gone. I stay there, helpless, stunned. The escape seems impossible, we'll have to fight! When hope flies away, animosity takes over. You will no longer have a hold Get out! While my throat is tied, I can't breathe. A survival instinct arose. My eyes open again. My chains are broken. A force that was lost, is reborn in me. I won't be the same let me go away! When hope flies away, animosity takes over. You will no longer have a hold. Get out! You will no longer have a hold. You will no longer have a hold. Need nothing! Self-sufficiency! Nothing is holding me. Back off!!! When hope flies away, animosity takes over. You will no longer have a hold. Get out! Get out! Get out! Get out!
3.	You lost your crown 04:22 video	lyrics	buy track
Can’t you see you’ve wasted my time, ignoring the efforts that I’ve made. Can’t you see you’re losing your crown, all your intentions, so worthless are gone. You lost your crown, you’re now moving on your own. And you’re still, you’re still wondering how it could come to this. What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care, not to hold me? What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care and not to hold me? Now you’re down but still asking for more, to feel it again. That love you gave, that love you gave was just a lie. What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care, not to hold me? What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care and not to hold me? The ground is gone. You’re falling down so long. And still, you want, you want to hide. What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care, not to hold me? What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care and not to hold me? What’s so exciting, lying and cheating on me? Why is it obvious not to care, not to hold me?
4.	Act of Reasoning 03:59	lyrics	buy track
Don't let them take your mind, have your own vision. Even if everybody blames you, follow your honest convictions. It ain’t wrong to think for yourself. It's not wrong to analyze. Your life is only yours! Now fly on your own! No borders will stop you, with a clear and open mind. Can you just open your heart? TRY IT ONCE! Decide to go left or right, enjoy your freedom. You may make bad decisions, but don't listen to anyone else... Get rid of your usual self-sabotage and follow your deep conviction! No borders will stop you, with a clear and open mind. Can you just open your heart? TRY IT ONCE! Life does not feel that futile. Your road is not chosen yet. You might not be that fragile. Always feel on the move. Avoid your daily routine, keep your adventures in mind. Nothing wrong’s happened yet, these are only experiences... nothing wrong’s happened yet... Try it once! Try it once! It's easy to lose yourself in the comforts. Ask yourself, if it’s worth to stay stuck on a rail? No borders will stop you, with a clear and open mind. Can you just open your heart? TRY IT ONCE! TRY IT ONCE!
5.	What else? 02:56	lyrics	buy track
I got too much anger in me. You trick me like a fool. I can't be strong for eternity. I will explode! I don't have words for what you did to me. Playing to pull me six feet under with no reason. Don't treat me like a toy! Don't push me! Think for yourself! All your answers are inside you. Open your eyes! See the truth! Everything has a price at last! At last!!! Did I have a wrong idea about what life is? Did I overreact? I don't think so. Don't push me again! My mind is clear now. I know what I want! It's time to move on. Unlocking my way. Think for yourself! All your answers are inside you Open your eyes See the truth Everything has a price at last! At last!!! You didn't see that coming, today I take my revenge. Opening my wings. Showing you my rage. You should be afraid. Of what you've done. Think for yourself! All your answers are inside you. Open your eyes! See the truth! Everything has a price at last! At last!!!
6.	Fallen 04:15	lyrics	buy track
It’s been too long that I’ve missed, freedom and an empty mind. It’s been too hard to get along, with all these questions in my head. Now it’s time to move on, finding the exit to the world. The world that does remain, for as long as I can breathe. I’ve been falling down for so long (for so long). No one catches me while I fall (No one catches me). Still, I fight to see the light, the light of day that keeps me alive. There’s nothing more that I can wish for, than the open mind that I had. Thoughts come in but don’t leave my head, until we got to realize it’s dead. In my soul, they won’t be fed, cause I will always be falling. I’ve been falling down for so long (for so long). No one catches me while I fall (No one catches me). I’ve been falling down for so long (for so long). No one catches me while I fall (No one catches me).
