PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
Having laid low since the end of 2014, just last month Northern Irish death metallers Rex Shachath suddenly announced their return with a brand new record which will be out November 20th via French label Great Dane Records.
Entitled Revocation Of The Blood Elect, this new EP might not be what people are expecting if they’re familiar with the band’s debut offering Sepulchral Torment. Since that release the band have had time to coalesce and where Sepulchral Torment had more of an ‘old school’ sound, Revocation Of The Blood Elect is an entirely new animal. Tackling social issues such as the state of modern society and man’s exorbitant desire for wealth at the expense of our natural world, the band have harnessed a sound more befitting to such issues on their forthcoming record. Old school ideals kneaded with modern death metal notions on a much more up to date and punchier production is what we have here.Revocation Of The Blood Elect carries a sound as big if not bigger than its message.
Now we can unveil the first taste of what to expect from the EP as the band unleash a brand new music video for title track.
Vocalist Dave Connolly comments of the track, “This song sees those in positions of power overthrown and put to the sword by man who has endured the oppression of those who would see humanity and the natural world struggle beneath them while they profit from the destruction of man and the earth.”
