7 roaring tracks ahead of the band's Closed Casket Tour participation.

On May 16, Full of Hell will release their Broken Sword, Rotten Shield EP via the always consistent Closed Casket Activities, continuing a forward-thinking discography that never ceases to conform. Like the connotations brought upon by its title, the EP isn't an easy listen, but a rewarding one that allows much in the realm of interpretation with a ripping listening experience to boast. The EP arrives in time for the band's participation in the spring/summer Closed Casket Activities Tour featuring Harm's Way, Jarhead Fertilizer, Kruelty, and Clique. Knight's Oath leads the charge alongside a brilliant video by Sam DiGristine & Patrick Costello.
Frontman Dylan Walker mentions the song is about "...absolute dedication to your charge, be it a person you love or held tenet, and the ignominy that comes with a sudden defeat. That idea acts as a metaphor for the grief you feel when you lose an animal companion. It feels pointless, cruel, and void in the moment. The video channels those ideas and takes the viewer on a quest with our noble dog knight and his cohorts as they quest for glory and wealth in the face of darkness."
Stream Knight's Oath below and pre-order the EP via Closed Casket.
