Today popular metal portal MetalSucks hosts the worldwide premiere of UNEARTH's 'Ruination Of The Lost' the explosive second track off the band's upcoming Darkness In The Light full-length.
Commented vocalist Trevor Phipps: "'Ruination Of The Lost' is a pummeling frontend album song that showcases our mix of both American and European metallic influences with an Apocalyptic lyrical theme. Buz [McGrath] and Ken [Susi] both rip some serious guitar solos in the tune and their guitar harmonies are hauntingly catchy. This one is a high energy shredder while lyrically it speaks about the end of the human race in the not so distant future if we continue to destroy our planet with the current level of disregard year after year. It's hard for me to understand why people still let money and politics interfere with any real positive change even with the warning signs Mother Nature has given us. The title of the song refers to the self-destructive nature of the human race and how we are collectively so lost in our lust for money and power that we are destroying the world that gave us life in the first place."To check out Ruination Of The Lost point your browser HERE.
Set for a European release on July 1 (G/A/S) / 4 (Europe) via Metal Blade Records, the 11-track Darkness In The Light their most conceptually personal offering to date was recorded at Zing Studios in Westfield, Massachusetts with producer (and Killswitch Engage guitarist) Adam Dutkiewicz and mixed at Audiohammer Studios in Sanford, Florida by Mark Lewis (The Black Dahlia Murder, Whitechapel, Trivium, et al). Sitting in on drums during the recording was Justin Foley of Killswitch Engage/Blood Has Been Shed.The first single, the instantly pummeling 'Eyes Of Black' is currently streaming on the band's official album landing page, which includes updated tour info, pre-order options and more. Said Phipps of the track: "We chose 'Eyes Of Black' to be the first song heard out of the gate as we feel it represents the 'UNEARTH sound' and style perfectly and it's simply a hard-hitting, catchy-as-hell song. The lyrics are also in line with many of the albums darker lyrical themes. I'm not speaking for all of the band, but this is my personal favorite on the album and I can't wait to get out there and play it live!"
