Progressive Death Metal duo ENTHEOS, who recently wrapped up a successful month-long tour supporting AS I LAY DYING, has dropped an official video for new single , “A Thousand Days”. The track is taken from the band’s forthcoming EP, “An End To Everything”, which will be released on October 25th through Metal Blade Records.
Vocalist Chaney Crabb, comments on the new song:
“Lyrically, ‘A Thousand Days’ is a song about feeling as if you’re on the edge of life and death. In writing ‘A Thousand Days,’ we wanted to focus on a more ‘mellow’ Death Metal vibe and simultaneously incorporate some elements of grunge and pitched screaming in the chorus.“
Merging elements pulled from countless genres – including Death Metal, Groove, Grunge, Electronica, Slam, Gothic Rock, Jazz, Prog and more – and pushing progressive death metal in ever more imaginative directions, ENTHEOS continues to progress with each new release.
“An End To Everything’s title and lyrics are significant on a personal level and depict an era in my life that ended with the death of a close friend because of addiction”, notes Chaney Crabb. “This person had thrived in life against many odds, but ultimately succumbed as a result of their own poor decisions. ‘An End to Everything’ is about the nature of the darkness of life and the human experience.”
“An End To Everything” was mixed and mastered by Mark Lewis (THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, FALLUJAH, WHITECHAPEL) and features artwork by Zac Shiffer (NINE INCH NAILS, BEHEMOTH, SOUNDGARDEN).
