NEWS: Death Dies sharpen their blades!

Following first single “Argento” out of hells gate, Italian Black Metallers Death Dies are now premiering the new video for “Lame” (Italian for “Blades“) as the first pair of cuts from their upcoming new album “Stregoneria“. A 2nd June release via Time To Kill Records, it features no less than four guest appearances with Andy “Bull” Panigada from Bulldozer, Lucho Sanchez from Blizzard Hunter, and Simon Fèrètro from Mater A Clivis Imperat all adding lead guitar parts to various songs and Mr. Yasuzuky from Abigail adding vocals to “Mystery Forest“. Blending Italian and Greek occult and Black Metal schools, both new cuts share all the hallmarks of the bands trademark sound… Pre-orders are available over at bandcamp.

The band comment: “’Lame’ is one of the first songs composed for the new album ‘Stregoneria’. Musically, it picks up from our old school roots – acts such as Blasphemy, Beherit and the black metal scene of the ’80/‘90s, revisited in a modern key, obviously in the sound but also in the rhythmic aspect of the whole song.
The lyrics focus on the concept of ‘words’ and the destructive power they have, whether they are a dogma, a precept, a commandment or even the simple expression of an idea. Words seen as ‘blades’ of a knife that can be used to obtain food, as well as to kill someone for no reason. Cowardice leads to confusion among the emotional levels between those who receive and those who communicate and this is used to the detriment of the ‘weaker’ part. We can call it religion, prevarication, conditioning, mobbing… there is no precise identity. The only element in common is the effect they have”.
