1.	Slaves of Existence 05:35	lyrics	buy track
New technology, evolution to find the answer Is there another world for us to breath, to breed new life This is the greatest question, no one will know Our goal is to ensure our existence The sky turns black / The sky is full of hate The sky shows war / In a new life we believe We all adore [ref] Slaves of existence / A second change Slaves of existence / A second lifetime New machinery, explore the universe Watching the sky, which direction must we go, we do not know We got to figure out, when the stars give their price Beholds a story unknown, we will realize The sky turns black / The sky is full of hate The sky shows war / In a new life we believe We all adore Slaves of existence / A second change Slaves of existence Imagine a new world / Underneath another sky Try not to fail once again / Explore the unknown Imagine a new world / Underneath another sky Try not to fail once again Newborn scenery, far beyond the eye can see Another world to destroy, another place to die Maybe too far to reach, in our dreams, it looks so real The final answer lies in the sky The truth to deny!
2.	The Supreme Colony 05:30	lyrics	buy track
Like a swarm, the example of brave slavery One sets the trend, and the rest will follow No opinion, no self-esteem - democracy No one is thinking for themselves Delusions of threats, real or imaginary They never doubt that this - is - true No mission, no meaning, no identity It all exist in the supreme colony [pre-ref] As far as the eye can see Black clouds everywhere We are under attack An invasion of intense despair [ref] Gathering - Together / To quench our needs We are superior! / In the supreme colony Wandering - Forever / To fullfil your dreams You are inferior! In the supreme colony Population is growing, they are in control So take now what can be taken The weak must be banished, exterminated! No one is thinking for themselves Mass hysteria, the example of brave slavery Nothing left to collect, our world is perished Only the souls of the wounded and the dead But they won’t survive in this supreme colony We are superior! / You are inferior! [pre-ref] [ref] 2x
3.	Catch / Kill / Release 05:15	lyrics	buy track
The mirror of truth reflects your soul Fixated to reach your goal Play your game, but play it fair Behaviour extraordinaire The moment I realised I was shocked awake at night Broken and numb, nothing is right Catch, kill and release! The mirror of truth reflects your soul Fixated to reach your goal Play your game, but play it fair Behaviour extraordinaire A malice against anxiety, creating a hostile fright This modern monster, swallowed us all Ripper from inside, a persistence disease Dysfunctioning me, it makes me crawl [ref] Stand above this cruel disease Don’t discourage your believes Control your own boundaries Catch, kill, Release! I want to catch you! / I wanna kill I want to catch you! / I wanna kill… YOU! There is no happily ever after, The downfall starts today An Utopia Wake up, arise! Step beyond your diocese, make sure it will disappear A broken fairy tale, shattered again [ref] I want to catch you! I wanna kill… YOU!
4.	State of Guilt 04:41	lyrics	buy track
4. State of Guilt We’re all in a state of guilt We will never feel relieved Restless, haunted by reproach Always, in a state of guilt Limits unknown, mind overload Nothing seems real in a mental overdose Every day, the pressure to perform This is what we are searching for..? We’re all in the haze of irony Don’t hesitate, in a constant state of guilt [ref] We all fail as one / Forever, in a state of guilt We’re all in a state of guilt We will never feel relieved Restless, haunted by reproach Always, in a state of guilt Drowning in fear, choices to take Words must be spoken, to clarify our needs With our backs, against the wall It’s time to make the final call The jack of all trades, master of none Never quit after we fall [ref] All that we hear / All that we see Nothing is real / What can we do? All we did feel / The taste of fear Nothing is real / Denial is our truth Limits unknown, mind overload Nothing seems real in a mental overdose Drowning in fear, choices to take Words must be spoken, to clarify our dreams Every day, teaching us the same No one will take the blame We haven’t learned, from our mistakes With bitter tears, in a constant state of guilt [ref]
5.	Devil's Draught 05:55	lyrics	buy track
Broken structures, a fallen regime A silhouette of forgotten dreams We must predict our future to live in perfect harmony Embrace this fantasy, treat it with dignity Hell yeah, arise and break the spell Come on, fight the fight and do it well Hell yeah, arise and break the spell Come on, fight the fight and do it well Drowned in a bath, of useless company The dark overshadows white [ref] We’re scarred, we’re marked, we’re weak at heart Old sins cast long shadows We’re scarred, we’re marked, we’re weak at heart Devils draught, the demons choice Devils draught, the demons choice [ref] Lack of backbone and weak at heart Totally submerged, trying to tear us apart A faceless appearance of followers, in docility With no sense of no-nonsense responsibility Hell yeah, arise and break the spell Come on, fight the fight and do it well Hell yeah, arise and break the spell Come on, fight the fight and do it well Wander in a world, of weird society A pitch-black bitterness, absorb the light [ref] Devils draught, the demons choice

about

The Heritance started in early 2014 when 5 experienced musicians joined forces. With a shared interest in creative rhythms, fast melodic riffs and
brutal vocals. The Heritance do not follow trends, but is making the music they like. Energetic, grooving, aggressive, thrashing deathmetal!
The band is driven by enthusiasm for heavy music and having pleasure playing it. All members have >15 yrs experience in bands ([deluzion],
Chiraw, Devious, Caedere) and performing live. The live performances are often reffered to as energetic and intense. The band hits the stage to
give it all, to demolish the stage and the venue, and nothing less!
Pitkings reviewed our gig at TattooFest Indoor 2016 – Hedon, Zwolle;
This band puts on a high speed heavy metal show, from the first note ‘till the last one. The songs are varied and very well
performed. This is the kind of band you would like to see when you go to a concert. There’s lots of action on the stage and the
pace is high, but it sounds as tight as it can be. The whole gig of The Heritance is a display of how well a band can play together;
it sounds fucking-a! (www.pitkings.nl/tattoofest-indoor-2016-hedon-zwolle-festival-review/)
The band released their debutalbum ‘Focus In Requum’ on october 10th 2015 followed by a EP ‘Routine to Decline’ on September 23rd 2017.
All aspects of both releases are a band effort. Writing is done in the rehearsalroom, Ric runs a studio where everything is recorded, mixed and
mastered, Hrödger takes care of all artwork (including the merch). Self supporting is not a goal, but a natural way of running the band.
To celebrate the release of the EP Happyface Beers brewed the Devil’s Draught, a Weizen IPA. The beer was a give away for the first fans that
purchased a Routine to Decline-package. Also a musicvideo was released on YouTube made by Bret Films for the song “Slaves of Existence” a
mixed mediafilm from two shows with backstage and live material.
And because The Heritance is not the band to lean back and enjoy the ride, they are already writing new music again!
But for now, you can enjoy our new EP! (best experienced with a cold Devil’s Draught of course!)
