RYL: What “Mechanics Of Extinction” Means For You?
Cambion :The Lyrics Talk About Surveillance Being And Intrusive Force On Our Lives And How Our Acceptance Of It As A “Shield” Has Made Us Vulnerable To It As A Weapon.
RYL: Is There A Common Meaning/Theme Between All The Songs Of The Album?
Cambion: YES! “VIRUS” IS A CONCEPTUAL EP BASED AROUND THE PROGRESSIONS OF HUMAN LIFE TO DEATH , AND HOW IT EFFECTS THE WORLD AROUND US.
ITS KIND OF A BOLD STATEMENT THAT WE AS HUMANS, ARE DESTROYING OUR WORLD.
RYL: Which Is The Most Personal Song Of The Album?
Cambion:Virus Pt 5 Resurrection Is The Track Off The Virus EP Which Says The Most To Me.
It Sums Up All Of The Tracks Lyrically And Is Written Around The Current Destructive State Of Affairs In The World, Which Many People Might Not Take Notice Of, However… We Do And It’s A Message We Try To Get Across In All Of Our Songs Put I Think Resurrection Puts It The Most Plain And Simply.- (Marc)
RYL: How Do You, Usually, Write The Lyrics And Music Of Your Songs?
Cambion: WELL, USUALLY THE MUSIC COMES FIRST, STARTING WITH A RIFF AND BUILDING THE SONG UP AROUND THAT , THEN WRITING LYRICS TO FIT RHYTHMICALLY AROUND THOSE RIFFS.
THE LYRICS NORMALLY START WITH SOME SORT OF CONCEPT OR IDEA IN MIND BEFORE I START FITTING THEM TO A SONG – (ELLIOTT)
RYL: Which Is The Most Important Thing For You While Doing Music?
Cambion :DIDN’T REALLY UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION, BUT WHATS IMPORTANT WHILST SONG WRITING IS WHAT FEELS GOOD! ITS LIKE TELLING A STORY, IT ALL HAS TO FIT TOGETHER.
THE LYRICS ARE IMPORTANT TO MAKE THE TRACK COME ALIVE.
RYL: Which Is The Best Verse You Ever Wrote?
Cambion:AH THAT WOULD BE THIS!
“CARVE OUT THE INNER MOST EMOTIVE REVOLT
THE CONVEX ARC OF COVENANT , IMPLEMENTING DESIGN, PRECONCEIVED TO PERFECTION.

SIMULATION OF LIFE. ( Lyrics From New Single – “Mechanics Of Extinction”)
RYL: Which Is The Last Song You Wrote (Not Published Yet)?
Cambion:The Last Complete Song Which We Wrote Towards Our Debut Album Has Been Named “Midas”.
