NEWS: Mental Torment announce “Dead Shot Revival”!
Ukrainian Death-Doom five piece Mental Torment have announced a new album called “Dead Shot Revival” for 28th October with a 96 second teaser. Adorned by artwork from guitarist and vocalist player Maria Vynohradska, the six track affair is said to evolve classic Death-Doom Metal into a modern sound while being in the 100% Ukrainian language. Working on it started during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which directly affected the music and lyrics.
“Dead Shot Revival” is a very important and personal album for Mental Torment. Change and realization are the themes of this release. Although musically a continuation of the previous album’s themes of madness and despair, “Dead Shot Revival” is also about fear, anxiety and hysteria of endless loss. It’s not about a fictional character in a story – it’s about all of us. Both musicians and listeners.
This album is a direct echo of the events that took place hundreds of years ago in Ukraine – and is a kind of reflection of all-encompassing experiences, both physical and mental. But at the same time, it is a reflection of the feelings and emotions that we all experience here and now.
