Barren Earth release new song ‘Withdrawal’
BARREN EARTH have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled Withdrawal, is taken from the Finnish progressive death metallers’ upcoming new album A Complex of Cages which is scheduled to be released in March this year. Speaking about the new song, vocalist Jón Aldará says, “Withdrawal moves BARREN EARTH into previously unexplored territory, making it an unorthodox album, but one that makes complete sense to us. It is the song that inspired the album title, and its theme of social anxiety is the glue which binds the songs together, lyrically.” Drummer Marko Tarvonen adds, “BARREN EARTH was always heavily categorised as death metal or prog for mixing those two influences. With Withdrawal, we wanted to do something that is neither. Instead, this song is a slowly growing rock ballad where the instrumentation has been kept minimal, giving more room for Jón‘s voice. It’s the ballad that SCORPIONS or KING CRIMSON never did!”

A Complex of Cages is set for release on March 30th via Century Media Records.
