Necrofier have premiered a new video for their new song “Fires Of The Apocalypse, Light My Path III.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Transcend Into Oblivion,” which will be released on February 27. Guitarist/vocalist Bakka commented:
“As you question everything you know to be true, life starts to become difficult. You start to realize that your new path is not without consequences and you will have to make changes because you already started the journey and there’s no going back.”
Of Virtue have premiered a new video for their new song “Death Of The Altar.” You can watch that below:
Guitarist/vocalist Damon Tate commented:
“It’s felt like forever since we have put out new music and we are so excited to show everybody what we have been crafting over the past couple of years!
We trade our health, clarity, and connection for things that never truly love us back on a daily basis. More often than not, we don’t recognize the consequences of our choices/actions until it’s too late. The guilt sets in and we set out to self soothe, compounding these negative emotions with even worse decisions, losing more of ourselves in the process.
This song is our open admission that we as human beings are both worshipper and offering. ‘Death Of The Altar’ is a stark metaphor for how chasing these ephemeral moments exploits our need for meaning, belonging and connection in this world.”
The Saddest Landscape have premiered a new song titled “From Home They Run.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Alone With Heaven,” which will be released on April 24.
Vocalist Andy Maddox commented:
“There are three aspects that come to mind immediately when I think of this song. The first is how stoked I was when I heard Daniel’s guitar part for the middle section, it was pure melody, pure tension, and I was so thankful it was on our record. The second is I now had to add lyrics to it that succinctly expressed the essence of the part. Those of us who live with constant anxiety/depression know those almost divine moments when these issues stop for a moment and one can feel relief even though they will come again. This is that part. The third is the end section, where the bass hits come crashing in, surrounded by driving octave chords that ebb/flow like an emotional wave breaking. I could ride that part until dawn.”
