BIO:
Founded in 2015, Pandemic is an old-school thrash/speed metal group based in Kraków, Poland. Throughout the first years, the band crystallized its vision and direction leading to the creation of 4 songs, released on 2018’s debut EP “Deaf Nite” - recorded as a memorial to late frontman, guitarist, and leader, Sebastian “Sharp” Wikar. Following the death of Sebastian, Pandemic went through several line-up changes to rise anew and continue on the chosen path. Two years later, the single “Where the Devil Says Goodnite” followed, announcing the new chapter of the band’s history. Early 2023 saw the release of "Crooked Mirror" as first full-length debut album via Chinese Awakening Records. After intensive recording sessions the time has come to bring into the light the 2nd LP - "Phantoms".

LYRICS:
Devil's laughed in the face of saints
as the death walked out of the shrine
Black-clad men on the mission to eliminate
There's no place to hide
Sacrosanct, the mother in black
Blessed the hunters' guns
Lawless paradox - the cartel demands
To have justice paid in your blood
(Swift strike)
Headhunt's began, the hounds caught your scent
(At your back)
Trapped in the alleyway, butchered and maimed
(Attack)
The edge of the blade cuts right through the flesh
No hands, no legs, no tongue and no eyes
Warrant has been signed in the name of mistress in black
Paralyzed with fear, the throat runs dry
About to be sliced with the edge of the knife
Santa Muerte - the patron of death
Goddess to the ones who will take your last breath
Tomorrow never comes to those who are marked
The trial without witnesses is about to start
Santa Muerte - blasphemous maid
For sins against the sinners, the price to be paid
Bow, before her Majesty
Her Grace in blackest cloak
The henchmen come to claim your head
Death's touch turns blood so cold
Screams resonate in alleyways
Answered with total silence
Alas, the prey meets its end
In the underworld of violence
Paralyzed with fear, the throat runs dry
About to be sliced with the edge of the knife
Santa Muerte - the patron of death
Goddess to the ones who will take your last breath
Tomorrow never comes to those who are marked
The trial without witnesses is about to start
Santa Muerte - blasphemous maid
For sins against the sinners, the price to be paid
