Melodic death metallers CHARIOTS OF THE GODS have unleashed their new lyric video “Resurrection” in support of their new album “Ages Unsung“, which was released this past September. “Resurrection” is one of ten shredding tracks recorded at The Grid with legendary Montreal producer Chris Donaldson (Cryptopsy, The Agonist, Beyond Creation, Neuraxis). You can hear “Resurrection” below.
The album also features a special guest solo from The Agonist’s Pascal Jobin on the song “Into Oblivion“. For this album, CHARIOTS OF THE GODS turned to fans on kickstarter with a pre-order campaign and surpassed their goal of $3,000. The album marks the return of Canada’s first metal band to tour Cuba after a small hiatus and line up change to follow up their 2013 debut album ‘Tides of War’ that was produced by music legend Glen Robinson (Queensryche, Gwar, Annihilator).
The band comments on “Resurrection“:
“For the third lyric video, we thought “Resurrection” could be a great addition to our series of singles. The song talks about the rising of beasts ready to set the world ablaze. With the US elections having passed, we felt the themes can somewhat be connected. We went into new territories with this one, but we’re really proud of the turnout. We hope you will enjoy it!”
