Today Ilker Ersin from Powerworld tells us about "Evil In Me" from their brand new album "Human Parasite". Here is the story: It was in my hometown in Bavaria, Germany. It happened during the songwriting process, middle of 2009. I was working of one of our songs of our album "Human Parasite". I needed a keyboard-part for the verse, I switched my recording system in circle mode and start to play. I played the keyboard-part and with the sound I used for it sounds a little bit strange. I copied this part in another arrangement and forgot to adjust the tempo.
Here it was, the intro for "Evil In Me". But the phrase seemed really strange to me, I grabbed my guitar and start jamming with the keyboard-part. After a while I got this, Barish (my guitarplayer) call it Randy Rhoads, guitar-riff. I got immediately the inspiration for the lyrics and the titel. I programmed the drums, played guitar, bass and keyboards and sang the guide vocal-lines for the demo. I did a mp3 and send it to Barish. This song became to one of his favorite ideas what I wrote for this album. He modified the chorus and changed the lyrics a little bit, played a big guitar-solo and brought some melody guitar lines in and a great song was born. This song is included in the audio-teaser what we have on - myspace
