Blessed by a Broken Heart - Deathwish

Well guys, here's the first new single off the new album "Feel the Power". There really isn't any screaming with the exception of maybe a spot or two so y'all should be happy with that. Sooooooo much lead guitar! Here's a brief explanation of the track given by the guitarist:

“‘Deathwish’ is a runaway train on full steam,” explains guitarist and British newcomer Sam Ryder. “It’s a full metal juggernaut of rapid fire riffs, mental baselines and supermassive vocals courtesy of [vocalist] Tony Gambino and myself. The song is the story of a mother’s struggle with substance abuse – locked in the vortex with her life in the balance.”

If the rest of the album sounds like this, then count me in. That is so much better than what I heard of the original.

Hey I like this. Isn't this the band who's first/last album was mostly 80's inspired metal music with core type vocals?

Yep, that's the one! From the sounds of this song as well as the samples of other songs I've heard, it sounds like they're sticking with that 80s sound and maybe even embracing it more. I think I read somewhere that they used more synths on this album (and dropped the drum machine beats, thankfully) than they did on Pedal to the Metal.

Wow, this is pretty cool stuff.
Is the rest of the CD like this song too?

More than likely. It's right on par with their last album so I wouldn't expect anything less. I saw a quote from one of the band members that said this is just the tip of the iceberg and that the rest of the album is even more insane!

This is AWESOME! WOW! I didn't think Christians made metal like this anymore. This is incredible. I can't wait until January!
