NEWS: Earthblood return with “Ape Warrior”!

After two well received EPs Finnish Sludge Metal act Earthblood have prepared a pair of seemingly stand alone singles for our listening pleasure. The first of those is “Ape Warrior” with Inverse Records warning that “Hatched in Hand” is set to be released on 16th April. As with their previous endeavours expect elements of dirty and gritty Sludge combined with the riffs and tempos of genres such as Thrash and Death Metal.

The band comments: “From the dark corners of the urban jungle, a primal leader, the Ape Warrior emerges. Having only one goal: to take down and conquer. With his lightning speed and heavy pounding the Ape Warrior is a worthy challenger for the mighty and powerful Acid Viking.

“Ape Warrior” continues the band’s familiar drive, raw energy, and primitive vocals, but this time, inspired by bands such as Motörhead and Wolfbrigade, we wanted to bring in a bit more punk/heavy metal attitude into it.

The song’s story playfully tells of a man who wants to live outside of society and simply be left alone, but as that doesn’t work out, he says “F*ck it” and decides to set the world on fire.”
