NEWS: Resolve like a cocktail?

Following the success of their critically acclaimed sophomore album “Human” and the announcement of a huge run of shows across Europe to see them to the end of the year, French Metalcore quartet Resolve have shared a new single in “Molotov“. It’s the first of eight additional tracks to appear on a deluxe version of the album set for a 25th October release via label home Arising Empire, merging the lines between the past and the present with metallic atmospherics while further exploring the rise in Artificial Intelligence.

Resolve vocalist Anthony Diliberto comments: “Molotov is an incendiary track, relentless and aggressive. I feel like upon the first few seconds of the track, you get the message clear as day: we’re here to shake the earth to its core. It’s very much a follow up, an epilogue even, to 2023’s lead single Human. Decades after the machine’s overtaking of earth and humanity, the cycle begins again and a new hope for humanity arises when a robot inexplicably starts behaving like an actual living person. When you stand out so much from the crowd, does that make you a leader or a pariah?”

Expanding on their upcoming ‘Human’ deluxe edition, bassist Robin Mariat adds: “This is a new form of release for us, which is very exciting. We get to build up on the world that we shaped for Human, and these new tracks are the continuation of the story. These new tracks definitely have something for everyone, whether you like the heavier side of Resolve, or if you are more into our melodic capabilities.”
