REX SHACHATH – Revocation Of The Blood Elect EP Streaming In Full

Northern Irish death metallers Rex Shachath has released their latest offering, Revocation Of The Blood Elect EP, via French label Great Dane Records and the EP is streaming in full via the Bandcamp player below:

Revocation Of The Blood Elect EP might not be what people are expecting if they’re familiar with the band’s debut offering Sepulchral Torment. Since that release the band have had time to coalesce and where Sepulchral Torment had more of an ‘old school’ sound, Revocation Of The Blood Elect is an entirely new animal. Tackling social issues such as the state of modern society and man’s exorbitant desire for wealth at the expense of our natural world, the band have harnessed a sound more befitting to such issues on their forthcoming record. Old school ideals kneaded with modern death metal notions on a much more up to date and punchier production is what we have here. Revocation Of The Blood Elect carries a sound as big if not bigger than its message.

A music video for title track can be found below. Vocalist Dave Connolly comments of the track, “This song sees those in positions of power overthrown and put to the sword by man who has endured the oppression of those who would see humanity and the natural world struggle beneath them while they profit from the destruction of man and the earth.”

Artwork (as seen below), was completed by UK artist Godmachine famed for his work with bands such as Suicide Silence, Bring Me The Horizon, Cannibal Corpse and Job For A Cowboy to name a few. The EP was recorded, mixed and mastered by Joe Thompson at Sonic Forge Studio, Cardiff, Wales.
