    This album is the first work of Delenda Est. Its sound is heavily influenced by early 2000s bands, such as Evanescence and Linkin Park, and the heavy riffs of the 90s music. It tries to offer a unique musical experience that runs from any preconception about what a metal album should be. Heavy distorted metal riffs, pounding drums and energetic rhythms are mixed with elaborated melodies full of beauty to create this musical journey. This album tells de story of a character called The Odd One Out that will be the guide of the listener through a world of light and darkness in search of self-knowledge, personal growth and, all in all, a place in life.

about

“Can`t things be easier? I know what I must do but every choice I have taken has just led me to more trouble. Why is it so hard? Why do good intentions end up in harsh words? Why is trust paid with betrayal? My determination to make a change is still there but sometimes it is so hard to see. I don’t want to give up, but I feel so tired”. All these doubts hounded the Odd One Out as the need of shelter, of somewhere to rest, became more and more pressing. Suddenly a voice passed through all those thoughts like sun light passes through dark clouds: “Why don`t you stop to rest for a minute?” Those words took the Odd One Out back to reality. “I´m not alone. I was so tired of fighting that I couldn´t remember how to stop doing it.”
In that moment The Odd One Out felt save, for once in a very long time. There, with those people, all the troubles could be told or kept but more importantly they could be forgotten for a while. Before leaving The Odd One Out said:
“My journey is mine. No one can walk it for me. However now I remember where I can return to rest. It is not home, but you make it feel so alike.”

lyrics

4. Bonds:
[Verse]
When your day fades to black
And no matter what you do
When you are out of luck
And you rise to fall again
See that everything isn’t lost
Rise up from the dust
We will never let you down
We are that helping hand

When life hits hard, hold your ground

[Chorus]
Joined!
By something more than blood
You won’t!
You won’t be left all alone
We are!
Someone with you till the end
Joined!
By all those nights of booze
We won’t!
Let your spirit crack and fall
We are!
The strength inside of you

[Verse]
Trouble seems to fade away
In the bottom of the bar
And the pain drowns tonight
In the beer of your glass
When a friendly silence means much more
Than what hurts you deep inside
And you feel that just with your mates
You can face this fucking life

[Chorus x 2]
