Absent In Body, the new band featuring Mathieu J. Vandekerckhove (Amenra), Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Iggor Cavalera (ex-Sepultura), and Colin H. Van Eeckhout (Amenra), have shared a new song titled “Rise From Ruins.” This track is from the group’s debut album, “Plague God,” which will be released on March 25.
Vandekerckhove commented:
“The blueprints of most AIB songs were made when I was on tour with Amenra. Because of the long journeys, I had a lot of free time on the bus. Different landscapes every day. The emptiness of the mountains, the desolate empty cities at night… At one day, when recording the album, I had too much negative news and havoc on my socials shoved into my face. And the riff to this song was an instinctive reaction to that. I fought it off. This song is definitely a reflection of that moment, that day.”
Notably, “Rise From Ruins” originally debuted during AEW’s “Revolution” PPV event on March 6. The track served as the theme song for House Of Black, which features wrestlers Malakai Black, Brody King, and Buddy Matthews.
