Australian metalcore outfit Justice For The Damned have unleashed one final new track for 2026, with their latest single “Torn In Two” now available to stream.
Vocalist Bobak Rafiee offered some insight into the song’s lyrical themes, explaining that it was written against the backdrop of two ongoing wars, including one tied to his own ancestral homeland. The track examines how people’s perceptions of global events can be shaped by what they encounter online, as well as the potential for public displays of concern to become performative.
“Written during a time of two ongoing wars, one connected to my own bloodline’s homeland, the song reflects on how easily even the people we consider wise or educated can be influenced by what they see online. We’re all bound by our own knowledge and awareness, meaning what feels like reality to one person can look like an illusion to another. The song ultimately builds toward a bleak realisation about how much of our public concern for others can become performative, and whether, beneath it all, we’re ultimately more concerned with ourselves.”
Justice For The Damned are planning to give “Torn In Two” its live debut this Friday, November 13, at Powerhouse Parramatta in Sydney, Australia. The event will be headlined by SPEED and will collect toy donations for children in need during the holiday season, while also raising funds for a local emergency shelter supporting women and girls.
