Swedish masters of melodic groove metal Orbit Culture is back with a new single "From The Inside" and a new record Descent due out August 18. Check out the single above alongside a music video and pre-order Descent here.
"Right off the bat, starting in the writing and demo stage of this album, all of us in the band felt that this song was special," said vocalist and guitarist Niklas Karlsson. "It is somewhat of a melancholic track but with a deadly punch that works well over this atmospheric clean guitar. The intro felt right, the verse felt right, and the chorus felt right. It's just one of those songs that combined all of the elements of this album into a single that we wanted to represent this album.
"The lyrics contain several metaphors talking about not really being fit in or able to smash through the bullshit in your life. I drew a line between the similarity of solitude to being left in the cold outside, which mostly starts within yourself. That's how the whole visual aspect of the video came from, being left out, seeing the world and the rest of the world can see you, but you can't be touched."
