NEWS: Ov Sulfur enter the void!

Continuing the trail of destruction in the build up to the grand unveiling of “Endless“, the sophomore album from Las Vegas Nevada Blackened Deathcore brutes Ov Sulfur on 16th January via Century Media, the band have shared a music video for “Vast Eternal“. The album will see the band joined by Johnny Ciardullo of Carcosa, Josh Davies of Ingested and Alan Grnja of Distant for guest vocal appearances.

Guitarist and vocalist Chase Wilson comments: “Imagine if you died and were all alone in an endless void of nothingness: no friends, no family, just endless dark and loneliness. That’s the mood we wanted to set while writing this song. You can hear that Leviathvn took the reins (his first OV SULFUR song as lead writer!) with its chaotic black metal chorus and war march verse. This song goes through a mental breakdown, a person losing their sanity in the endless void. There is a lot of vocal interplay between the two of us, hinted at on The Burden Ov Faith’s ‘The Inglorious Archetype,’ inspired by Alice In Chains’ Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell. You can hear that on ‘Evermore,’ and we practically split ‘Wither’ down the middle; the song is about us both losing grandparents, so it’s super personal”

Vocalist Ricky Hoover adds: “This song is about dreams I’ve had repeatedly since the passing of my grandma, to whom we dedicated ‘Wither,’ in which my consciousness exists in nothingness forever. In that sleeping world, there’s no Heaven, no Hell after death… just nothingness. I was originally only going to sing a soft intro to ‘Earthen’ on our last album. Once Chase and our vocal producer [for that album] Morgoth heard it, we reworked a bunch of stuff for me to sing more. That’s pushed further here. Chase even taught me to do falsetto in-studio (he actually took a video on his phone where I looked genuinely shocked I hit the notes because it was so new to me).”
