Echoes Of The Extinct from Jyväskylä, Finland, is set to release their debut album, Era Of Darkness, on April 25 vi Inverse Records. Now, the band is unveiling its new single, “Virus”, which had its guitar and drum parts written independently, unbeknownst to each other, yet surprisingly ended up working together perfectly. Initially nicknamed “generic metalcore song”, it later evolved into a progressive six-minute track with intricate metalcore riffs, striking tapping leads, brutally low-tuned breakdowns and strong melodies throughout.
The lyrics explore human behavior within its own environment. Instead of living in harmony with nature, humanity behaves like a virus – destroying its surroundings and ultimately itself. Despite its immense power of destruction, humanity is not immune to extinction and will eventually dig its own mass grave. Yet, while nature and the environment will recover over time, this parasite will be gone. Time is running out. The final moments to save ourselves are at hand.
The single is available via digital platforms here.
Tracklist:
“Remedy”
“Empathy”
“Era of Darkness”
“Virus”
“Conflict”
