Einen ungewöhnlichen Song haben sich die Bostoner Dark Melodic Powerthrasher LET US PREY ausgesucht, um ihre erste Musik seit dem letztjährigen Debüt “Virtues of the Vicious” zu präsentieren, denn die Truppe um Sänger Marc Lopes (Ross The Boss) zeigt sich in ‘Deadlight Sunst‘ eher ruhig und getragen als aggressiv, wenn auch leicht psychotisch. Dieses liegt am sehr persönlichen Thema, dem Wunsch nach Suizid.

Sänger Marc erklärt:

“Written originally as a bonus track that wasn’t finished in time for the final ‚Virtues of the Vicious‘ release, it’s a Part II to ‚In Suffering‘ in the context of its subject matter of depression, suicide and the struggles of mental dis-ease. ‚Deadlight Sunset‘ is a journey into the mindset of wanting to commit suicide – the helplessness, the comforting thought and relief in thinking this option is the solution. This is a first-hand account from me personally – a very dark subject, a very real subject, but something that needs to be discussed and with no shame. Luckily for me, I’m still here to tell the dark tale, to hopefully convey a message that there is a better solution and to bring awareness to this growing matter. We also have our good friend Nick Petrino from Dee Snider’s band doing a killer solo that was a bit out of his normal wheelhouse as well, and it just completes the vibe on this tune. We’re never afraid to go against the norm within the metal genre, as LET US PREY has many shades, colors and dynamics to what we do, so always expect the unexpected. (Wait ‘til you hear the next record.) Welcome to The Deadlight Sunset.”

Daneben zeigt er sich aber auch weniger nachdenklich und lässt die Metaller wissen:

“I’m personally proud of this one as its my first Abstract Video Short Film…Shot, Edited and Directed by ME …..AWwoOWoOWooOFukYa ……Let me know what ya all think of the tune and vid ….Thanks ……”
