South Carolina grind act WVRM have released their new song, “Years of Lead,” which can be found on the band’s upcoming album titled ‘Colony Collapse’ (due 4/3 on Prosthetic Records). Stream the track below.
Of the single, vocalist Ian Nix says:
Years Of Lead is about the brutality and injustice of the Neo Liberal order experienced all over the world, and the frustrations felt by its utter failure to lift up the majority. It’s presented as straight forward and heavy as possible.
Regarding the upcoming LP, the official announcement adds:
Colony Collapse is a product of its surroundings, an anthology of its environment, and a detailed record of the lives of the people who made it. WVRM’s music is political in nature, but far from a broad rage against the machine, their lyrics take a micro-look at the effects of socio-political entrenchment on everyday lives.
Coming up this spring, WVRM will team up with Napalm Death, Aborted and Tombs for their previously announced North American crusade together. See all upcoming dates below.
