Die 2012 in Kansas City gegründete Thrash Metal Unit HELLEVATE, die auch schonmal im Power oder Extremer Metal Bereich wildert, veröffentlicht die neue, lupenreine „standalone“ Thrash-Single `Rage Dealers`, auch gleich als Video. Wann der Nachfolger zur 2023 veröffentlichten „The Purpose Is Cruelty“ EP erscheint ist noch nicht klar.
Die Band schickt das folgende Statement zum neuen Song:
“In the process of writing our next album, we realized we had so many songs we liked that we felt we needed another way to get them out.So, we decided to release a standalone single or two, otherwise we’d end up writing a double album! “Rage Dealers” about how there seems to be a constant incentive to keep everyone angry and miserable. The news and social media are the most obvious culprits, but it’s really everywhere! It’s the easiest way to get and maintain attention these days. You get hooked with some provocation, and you keep coming back, every time seeking out a little bit more than the last time. It really can be addicting. And you can see the effects it has on people all around you.
“We didn’t intend to make a video for it, but in joking around about potential video ideas, we realized we actually had an idea we felt was strong. It was a lot of fun to make, and we’re excited for everyone to hear it!”
