‘Nocebo’ refers to fear fueled by media. It’s about the way people can get so awash by information, they get struck by hysteria. Nocebo’s tempo is faster than we’ve grown accustomed to from Intero over the last few years. In this aspect the band hearkens back to their early days. A fresh element is introduced as well: a seven string guitar. The best of old and new is tied together with blistering aggression.
Produced, mixed and mastered by Martin van Beek (Lucifer's Cold Embrace, ex Non-Divine) at Studio Inflamed, The Netherlands. This music is also available on Spotify, Bandcamp, Deezer, iTunes, etc.

LYRICS:
Strangers need to be feared
Viruses need to be feared
Fear politicians, fear politicians
The future needs to be feared
Traveling needs to be feared
Bacteria need to be feared
Fear the cops, fear the cops
Foreigners need to be feared
Be afraid, be very afraid, be afraid
Start running, protect your wealth
Start running, save yourselves
Traffic needs to be feared
Social media needs to be feared
Teenagers need to be feared
Technology needs to be feared
Fear journalists, fear journalists
Your neighbours need to be feared
Be afraid, be very afraid, be afraid
Start running, protect your wealth
Start running, save yourselves
Burn transmission towers
There’s no time to think
Hoard toilet paper
Just act on basis instincts
Be afraid, be very afraid, be afraid
Start running, protect your wealth
Start running, save yourselves
Start running and keep on running
Start running and keep on running
