A seventh full-length chock full of twists and turns keeping thrash on a pedestal.
On March 14, Warbringer will release their new album, Wrath And Ruin, via Napalm Records, prefaced by the rip roaring lead single, A Better World, and the fantastic visual settings of cover artist extraordinaire Andreas Marschall. Like its predecessors, Wrath And Ruin wastes no time in getting to the fun and A Better World introduces the ferocity that drives the band's latest chapter.
Frontman John Kevill comments:
"When I was younger, I used to think the world would only get better during my life. I know now that isn’t the case. We aren't going to fix the environment even though we know the consequences, because profits would decrease, so it's not considered possible. On top of that, our societies keep getting more unequal, with a few people owning most everything, and most people just trying to keep their heads above water. We still won’t feed everyone, but we will fund development of weaponized autonomous drones, etc, etc.
I was reading some social theory stuff (Mark Fisher) some years ago and feeling depressed about my own future in these conditions. I went to a therapist and they basically told me it was all real and legitimate, and that all they could do was give me drugs so I could pretend that I didn’t know all this. I don’t really have time to worry too much, because a bunch of bills are always due. I also stopped dreaming for a year or two, which I found scary. I tried to bottle this feeling into 'A Better World' — I don't think I'm the only one."
