The New Flesh is dropping in just a couple of weeks’ time, and Sylosis have unleashed the record’s third single Lacerations. The band call it “our best song to date…”
Sylosis have just dropped their third new single, Lacerations.
Following The New Flesh and Erased, the metallers are continuing to build towards the release of their new album – which is also called The New Flesh – on February 20 via Nuclear Blast.
Frontman Josh Middleton enthuses that, “Lacerations has become a firm favourite amongst those that have heard the new record. After this song came together during the early stages of writing, I felt a huge sense of relief knowing that we had achieved our best song to date. I couldn’t get the chorus out of my head and that’s usually a good sign. Once we had this song under our belts we knew this album would a big step up in terms of our writing abilities.
“Musically it calls back to some of the darker melancholic sounds from Edge Of The Earth or even The Supreme Oppressor but with a ton of heavy riffs in there,” he adds. “Lyrically, this song is about facing your own mortality and health anxiety. I think a lot of people can relate to spiralling out of control when they think something’s wrong and how differently you look at your life, and what matters most when confronted with those intrusive thoughts.”
