Deadly Bite has become a firm live favourite during controlled chaotic powerhouse, O.R.k’s recent shows, resonating strongly with the audience. The subject matter deals with the role of the subconscious and its function as a store of dreams and memories, and considering how it can shape everyday, waking life.
The lyrics touch on the subject of ‘waking life dream theory’, whilst also musing on the divide between fate and destiny.
Regarding the single, Colin Edwin had the following to say: “Deadly Bite” is easily the most ambiguous song on Screamnasium and invites multiple interpretations, and the accompanying video is rich with symbolism: a black car arriving from the unknown, mysterious bite marks as omens, the shock of awakening…. This is a song for anyone who has ever been bitten by a dream or unfulfilled desire, which I’d wager includes most of us”
