The band’s comment:

‘Survival Complex’ shows the Royal Sorrows at the peak of their heaviness. The song is an existential cry that portrays the conflict between one’s own values and the hypocrisy of a decomposing society. It encloses the helplessness that turns into anger. Indulge in shocking soundscapes and devastating guitar riffs, without compromising the fresh and imaginative essence for which Royal Sorrow have made a name for themselves.

The album is available in the following formats:
• Ltd. CD Edition – plastic-free 6-panel SleevePac with 12-page booklet
• Transparent Neon Orange Vinyl
• Digital Album

1. Let Go
2. Metrograve
3. Samsara
