Metal Anarchy

Signs Of The Swarm have premiered a new video for their new song “HELLMUSTFEARME.” This track is from the band’s new album “To Rid Myself Of Truth,” which will be released on August 22.

Drummer Bobby Crow commented:

“‘HELLMUSTFEARME‘ is a nod to our roots: all gas, no brakes from start-to-finish. I wanted to channel the albums that drew me into deathcore, such as ‘The Cleansing‘ by Suicide Silence and ‘Hellbound‘ by Fit For An Autopsy and add our SOTS flavor. As soon as we finished this demo, we knew we wanted it to be the first thing everyone heard from the album that became ‘To Rid Myself of Truth‘.”

Vocalist David Simonich added:

“‘HELLMUSTFEARME‘ started from a little joke I had with a friend about how many times I tried killing myself—and failed, obviously. Assuming Hell were real, I would definitely be going there, but they don’t want me there. It’s kind of a ‘chicken or the egg’ situation; do they not want me there because I can’t die and what that suggests, or can I not die because they won’t let me know—and why is that if it wasn’t preceded by my being unkillable?

The song is about the lowest of the low. Not even the most depraved place for the heathens of all heathens wants me? So they keep me contained in another Hell, Earth.

Yet, I overcome. I hope that shines through and the listener feels powerful when they are jamming this defiant and deadly song. I’m trying to turn my negative experiences into something positive.”
