As Innerstrength Records prepares to release The Color Of Bone, the brutal fourth EP from Charlotte, North Carolina-based metallic hardcore outfit, VIOLENT LIFE VIOLENT DEATH, Lambgoat is hosting an exclusive stream of the new single, “Dead With Me.”
VIOLENT LIFE VIOLENT DEATH‘s The Color Of Bone continues to explore the darker and more eerie sounds the band started experimenting with in their previous release, 2019’s Sadness Rains. With five new tracks recorded, mixed, and mastered by Kyle Dameron at Rareform Recordings in Hickory, North Carolina, the record was completed with photos by Justin Driscoll, art by Justin Campbell, and layout by Mark De Gruchy.
Guitarist Joseph Benham offers with the new single, “‘Dead With Me’ is about two lovers parted by death, as the ghost of the deceased watches and admires his partner from beyond the grave, wishing and longing for them to join them in death.”
Innerstrength Records will release The Color Of Bone on CD and through all digital providers on October 30th. See the previously issued “Roseblade” lyric video HERE.
Watch for an official video from the EP and more from VIOLENT LIFE VIOLENT DEATH surrounding the release of The Color Of Bone.
Since their formation in 2016, VIOLENT LIFE VIOLENT DEATH has delivered a blistering, damaging brand of brutal metallic hardcore, having been on a constant mission to deliver the most aggressive, hardest-hitting, yet straightforward music the genre has to offer, drawing comparisons and influence from the likes of Zao, Converge, Hatebreed, Dillinger Escape Plan, and Everytime I Die.
The band’s unique and evolving blend of metal and hardcore has been described by Metal Hammer as, “a relentless adrenaline blast,” and Lambgoat describes VIOLENT LIFE VIOLENT DEATH as, “having solidified themselves as one the most promising up and coming hardcore bands out there.”
As much as VIOLENT LIFE VIOLENT DEATH loves writing music, playing live is what they live for, and the band has shared shows with Lamb of God, Whitechapel, SeeYouSpaceCowboy, Madball, Chamber, Unearth, and many others, touring as much as possible.
