Orbit Culture Premiere “Vultures Of North” Music Video

Orbit Culture have premiered a new video for their new song “Vultures Of North.” This track is expected to appear on the band’s new album, which will be released in 2023.

Vocalist Niklas Karlsson commented:

“When it comes to the message and tone of the song ‘Vultures Of North‘, we’ve felt that we’ve been waiting for too long now to get out there and play due to the pandemic. During COVID, of course, our fanbase has grown very strong and under the same banner, the antlers emblem, we’ll head out there together stronger than ever before.

With this huge U.S. tour coming up, we felt that we’re going to head out there with a new fast and heavy song. With all the European dates this summer that have gone so well, it’s time to put in a higher gear with this new song into the frontline. The riffs and the instrumental side of this track was born out of just us wanting a song that just hammers through concrete, a simple 4/4 on the drums and just an angry ‘Sawish’ riff on top.”

In Flames Premiere New Song “The Great Deceiver”, Announce European/UK Tour

In Flames have premiered a new song titled “The Great Deceiver.” You can check that out below:

The band commented:

“‘The Great Deceiver‘ was born out of frustration, basically a reaction to false flags but since then it has grown to represent several meanings. There’s a line that says ‘Bend the truth to fit your opinion’ and I feel that speaks a lot to the narrative happening online, between people, and nations etc. today. We are more a part now than ever before yet it’s easier to communicate than in any other time in history.”

In Flames Premiere “State Of Slow Decay” Music Video, Announce North American Tour

In Flames have premiered a new video for their new song “State Of Slow Decay.” Anders Fridén commented:

“We have always done our own thing without any pressure from the outside world, BUT being back with Nuclear Blast worldwide has for sure inspired us to write a host of new material that includes the past, the present and the future. ‘State Of Slow Decay‘ includes everything that In Flames are known for, but it’s more than just a song, it’s a fucking statement. I couldn’t be happier to release this as a taste of what’s to come.”
