De Finse melodic death metal band Omnium Gatherum brengt op 2 juni hun nieuwe EP “Slasher” uit via Century Media Records en heeft een video uitgebracht voor de titeltrack.
Frontman Jukka Pelkonen zegt het volgende over de track:
A powerful fast song with a message like a plea to oneself! The darkness within can be an ally or an enemy. You are both the hunter and the hunted! ‘Slasher‘ is also the title of our upcoming EP. This bad boy delivers two more OG songs and a furious cover. For now, check out the rippings of ‘Slasher‘!
Gitarist Markus Vanhala voegt er aan toe:
Hello from OG HQ! We’ll serve you a snack in between album cycles – it’s called ‘Slasher‘, it’s an EP and it rocks! This release is a two-sided coin: A-side is presenting our new guitar hero and team player on the other side of the Atlantic, Mr. Nick Cordle (who joined the band right after our ‘Origin‘ release); B-side is presenting two older songs which were recorded already during the ‘Origin‘ sessions and aimed to release as digi-singles (but here they are on vinyl and CD too now finally). Enjoy!
De coverart en tracklist voor de EP zien er als volgt uit:
- “Slasher”
- “Maniac” (Michael Sembello cover)
- “Sacred”
- “Lovelorn”
Pre-Orders zijn hier verkrijgbaar.
