“Through The Heart of The Infidel” captures the hearts and minds of those who have struggled in protest and demonstrates the trial and tribulations they as a band have seen. Everything from one member’s cancer ordeal through tour to lost loves to industry bull shit that the everyday artist struggles with. Special Ops bring forward in their international collective an explosive return to hard chaotic sniper rock.

"Phase 2: In Search of Madness" is an anger-focused perspective of dealing with life's harsh realities but is also about evolving and growing as a person. It speaks about just moving on and dealing with life's difficulty and understanding the journey that's being thrown at you. Phase 2 keeps you rocking with a creation of Kevlar vest rhythm and ear piercing lead guitar ability that sets the ranges apart from each attacking song.
