NEWS: Marble Ghosts cast aside all worldly possessions…
A band with a message, Canadian Alternative Metal outfit Marble Ghosts emerged in 2023 with a blend of metal, grunge and punk influences creating a distinctive sound with a fierce commitment to challenging societal norms. Having enjoyed the reception given to last years self titled EP the band have crafted another which asks the question “Are you ready to cross the greatest divide?”. The divide of which they speak is that which splinters friendships and families as social, political and religious viewpoints create shadows on the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, the worry at losing loved ones by speaking out creating deep rooted pain. 4th April will see “The Greatest Divide” arrive in technicolor glory, “Eat the Rich” the latest preview of it…
Vocalist Dylan Gunnell comments: “This song ‘Eat The Rich’ is about the ultra-wealthy, and the great divide is clear with every billion added to their coffers while the people that enrich them through a broken system continue to suffer. While the chorus is metaphorical, in writing the lyrics, the band also envisioned an alternate reality where our planet has been devastated by a zombie plague. The ultra-rich are waiting for a shuttle to carry them to Mars, but it malfunctions, and they are trapped. The undead descend on them, and they are torn to pieces by the horde, the horde that once worked for them, that kept capitalism strong, the people that made them rich. In that reality, their fair share will be paid with a pound of their flesh.”
