NEWS: Strike three for Signs of the Swarm with “Malady”!
A third single from the Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, King 810, Tallah) recorded, produced and mixed upcoming new album from Signs Of The Swarm has premiered in “Malady“. The Pittsburgh natives will see that unleashed by Century Media on 28th July with guests including Trivium mastermind Matthew K. Heafy, Joshua Travis (Emmure, Glass Cloud, The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza) and Cameron Losch (Born of Osiris) throwing riffs and ruckus into the mix (“At one point, Joshua Travis was recording a chainsaw in his backyard“, the band reveals)…
On the new single, vocalist David Simonich comments: “This song reflects previous battles I’ve faced with my depression. A moment in my life reminded me of what I’d been through, and it became the fuel for ‘Malady’. The song pushed me to be vulnerable in the studio, expressing my thoughts and emotions to my producer to paint the picture I was going for”
Drummer Bobby Crow adds: “I wanted to craft a dark and primal song to match Dave’s subject matter, so the music and lyrics elevate one another. Seeing as ‘Malady’ is another word for disease, I wanted the song to be catchy enough to infect yet deteriorates as sickness does to your body over time. The song builds to a painful climax, growing in intensity as it devolves into a noisy cacophony. You can’t even wrap your head around it, then it’s over”
The Deathcore skull crushers will be reuniting with Harbinger, who were with them alongside Decapitated on their 25th Anniversary tour as well as To The Grave for a run of shows at the end of the Summer…
