NEWS: Distant flush out the rats!

Given the amount of time that Downtempo Deathcore Kings Distant have been spending on the road since forever, the fact they’ve managed to find the time to use the bathroom let alone record new material seems like a miracle. But ahead of a European Summer Festival run that will include Graspop Metal Meeting, Impericon Festival, Jera On Air and Resurrection Fest, a poison pen letter called “Rat Torture” has landed.

The band comment: “‘Rat Torture’ is about a suffocating descend into a world where the illusion of freedom is maintained by the glowing screens and empty validation. The song paints humanity as willing prisoners, rats in a cage they worship. Every scroll is a mechanised ritual where identity is performed instead of lived. While there might be still human beneath the glow, it’s too numb to break free”
