about
The Face of Evil features the legendary drummer Marco Minnemann (UKZ, The Aristocrats, The Mute Gods, Ex-Necrophagist).
The Face of Evil was conceptualized and recorded when the band was auditioning new drummers. While exploring the possibilities of working with drummers abroad, Marco Minneman was a unanimous choice, primarily because he was not limited to the confines of traditional metal drumming. Marco was gracious enough to agree to work with us, and as expected, blew us away with his interpretation of our music.
The Face of Evil also marks the last track we recorded with Gaurav Basu a.k.a Acid Toad as our frontman, marking the end of an era in Inner Sanctum’s journey. As we look forward to moving on towards achieving bigger and better things as a band , join us in one last celebration of our glorious past.

The Face of Evil - Lyrics
Grievance for abhor
Notice served too late
Driven by the coin
Bodies oscillate
Give in to the sport,
With the hand,
(But) The lotus calls,
With demands,
Side with your kind,
Where gold pulls the right strings.
Give in to a rule that’s broken,
By your living will obey,
Merge yourselves with hell,
And shed your humanity.
I’m not in disarray,
Just lost in fallacy
I am not indistinct, feeding hate to kids today
Raising all the suffering
Disorder disorder
Equality, security
Denied denied
Raising all the suffering
Disorder disorder
Equality, security
Denied
Toxic traditions stayed
The truth is what I say,
Waking to a war,
Where friends of mine I slay
Lies soaked evermore
With disguises of great intent,
Strip my sense of congruence
And embrace the false defence
I AM THE FACE OF EVIL
I AM THE ROTTEN ONE
I AM UNETHICAL
I AM THE DAMAGE DONE
