Full Of Hell will release their new EP, Broken Sword, Rotten Shield, on May 16. Pre-order here. These seven new songs are a blistering meditation on love, loss, and the crushing inevitability of grief. Through a fantasy-tinged lens, the band crafts a world of dog knights and noble quests, only to tear it all down in a violent reckoning with mortality.
Today, the band shares Broken Sword, Rotten Shield’s title track. Vocalist Dylan Walker says it’s an “…introduction to the theme of the EP. The dog knights represent these pure defenders against a world of darkness and the feeling of utter grief and defeat when we lose these companions. Along side that metaphor, the song also explains that in this world, all living things are rendered equal in the end, and for some that’s a mighty fall.”
Following the overwhelming acclaim of 2024’s Coagulated Bliss, Full Of Hell continue their creative streak with a record that’s both conceptually rich and sonically devastating. Produced by Kevin Bernstein (Misery Index, Pig Destroyer), Broken Sword, Rotten Shield balances suffocating heaviness with moments of bleak melody and reflection. It’s a record that expands Full Of Hell’s world while digging deeper into what’s always driven them – confronting pain with absolute honesty, and turning it into something crushingly real.
