Brodequin unleash new single, “Harbinger of Woe”

Knoxville, Tennessee brutal death metal trio Brodequin have released their new single “Harbinger of Woe,” available for listening below. The track is featured on the band’s upcoming studio album of the same name, set to be released on March 22nd through Season of Mist Underground Activists (pre-order/pre-save).

“‘Harbinger of Woe’ delivers plenty of punishment,” states a press release. “Brennan Shackelford flails his drum kit with the pinging precision of a dungeon master. But the song isn’t inhumane. After all, someone was responsible for administering these historic beatings. Heck, back in the Middle Ages, executioners were considered a necessary evil.”

“In many ways, the title track is representative of the whole album“, Brodequin add. “‘Harbinger of Woe’ uses several quotes that capture the violent mindset of the Medieval Period. But lyrically, we’re also trying to portray an expert in his craft, who’s well-acquainted with being shunned from society, along with all the other negative aspects of his profession. If you found yourself in this unfortunate position, you’d want this highly skilled professional to put you down as quickly and efficiently as possible.”
