Ripped To Shreds have revealed the details for their new album “Sanshi.” That effort will be released on September 27 and it will focus on the “morbid fixation on death and the afterlife in the context of traditional Chinese folklore.”
“Sanshi” Track Listing:
01. “Into The Court Of Yanluowang”
02. “Force Fed”
03. “燒冥紙 (Sacrificial Fire)”
04. “孽鏡臺 (Visions Of Sin, Mirror Of Darkness)”
05. “Feast Of The Deceased”
06. “Horrendous Corpse Resurrection”
07. “Living In Effigy”
08. “冥婚 (Corpse Betrothal)”
09. “Cultivating Towards Ascension”
10. “Perverting The Funeral Rites, Stripping For The Dead”
A video for the effort’s first single, “Perverting The Funeral Rites, Stripping For The Dead,” can be found below. That track was inspired by “obscure funeral rites in Taiwan, wherein exotic dancers perform lithe rituals for living and dead alike.” The group continued:
“We wanted to come out of the gates swinging with our most morbid and grinding material yet. ‘Perverting…’ showcases our new live approach with constant vocal and solo tradeoffs, and we shot the video in Taiwan with a real Daoist priest as a natural extension of RTS’ narrative approach to songwriting.”
