BRODEQUIN have announced a new album!

Titled Harbinger Of Woe, the upcoming album from the American brutal death metal band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2004’s Methods Of Execution, and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via Season Of Mist.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Of Pillars And Trees.

“This song finds its inspiration in the historical practices that involved the utilization of trees for the purpose of torture and execution,” bassist/vocalist Jamie Bailey explains about the new song. “Among the myriad methods employed, a prominent example was the affixing of an individual to a pillar, or, more commonly, a tree trunk through the use of long iron nails.”

“The creation process for Pillars… started out much like any other BRODEQUIN track,” guitarist Mike Bailey adds. “It wasn’t until the mid-section came together that it began to diverge. I wanted to slow things down a bit but add some depth with multiple guitar tracks instead of just droning a single riff. As the layers were being written, I kept hearing a synth pattern in my head. But instead of using an actual synth, I recreated what I was hearing on my guitar, using plenty of reverb and delay to get the tone as close to what I was imagining as possible.”
