NEWS: The Risen Dread premier “Betrayal”!

Dublin Ireland Death Groove trio The Risen Dread have chosen a true story for the subject of their first single of 2024. Simply titled “Betrayal“, the cut tells the tale of Blanche Monnier, a socialite who was locked in a tiny room by her mother and brother at age 25 for 25 years in a room without light, accompanied by the bands signature heavy riffs, fast double bass and blast beats. As if you didn’t already know. The subliminal suggestion is that there is lot more where this one came from with new elements that may or may not include orchestral and choral embellishments…

Guitarist William Ribeiro comments: “Betrayal, even though I had some of those riffs for a while, is the first song we wrote after the drummer left. We wanted to do the opposite of what we did for our last album, we wanted this track to be straight to the point and not only fast, we wanted it to be aggressive and heavy, with headbanging riffs as well as moshpit parts. I think Betrayal summarizes the dread that rises again from within each band member after this 2023 year. Nothing better than talking about a woman locked up by her mother. Can you imagine how she felt?”
