Mastiff have premiered a new video for their new song “Serrated.” The track, which features Harry Nott (Burner) and XIII, is from the band’s new album “Deprecipice,” which will be released on March 22.
The group said the following:
“The track lyrically is about the ‘bullshit machine;’ people blowing smoke up your arse but you trying to stay grounded. It’s too easy to fall foul of the reverse of imposter syndrome. We met Harry and the Burner boys when they came to Hull when they were supporting Employed To Serve and it turned out Burner were fans of us and after about 30 seconds of them playing we all became some of their biggest fans too.”
Nott added:
“‘Serrated‘ is a relentless track and the vibe clicked instantly – went in the studio and smashed it in a couple of takes with some quickly penned lyrics. Mastiff is the epitome of darkness, so I went hard on some apocalyptic imagery.”
Mastiff vocalist Jim Hodge also commented on the album:
“We’ve gone quite a lot towards a hardcore sound. Where the last one was more death metal, this one’s a lot more staccato: a lot more defined, riff-wise. The album’s called ‘Deprecipice‘, and that pretty much sums up where me and James were when we wrote it. We were both standing back on the edge of a depressive void.”
