Bathory Told Metal Hammer About The Album Title “ It's A Phrase We've Had Up Our Sleeves For Some Time And I've Been Talking About It A Lot In Interviews. In Fact Somebody Just Asked Me 'If War Is The Answer Then What Is The Question?' And I Guess The Answer To That Is "the Meaning Of Life" ! Because Life IS War. Basically You're Fighting Against One Thing Or Another Right From The Start – You're Fighting For Survival With Pretty Much Everything Against You You're Fighting For Social Or Political Positions... And Of Course There Are Occasions When The Only Really Appropriate Response Is To Punch Someone In The Mouth! It's A Pretty Involved Subject Once You Really Start To Think About It And This Record Covers It All – The Deeper Meaning And Of Course The More Shallow One Too! ” —Zoltan Bathory Metal Hammer The First Single From War Is The Answer "Hard To See " Began Receiving Radio Play On July 13 2009.
