Betraying The Martyrs release new song ‘Down’

BETRAYING THE MARTYRS have released a new song!

The new song, titled Down, is taken from the band’s upcoming new album Rapture which is scheduled to be released later this month. The new song is dedicated to the many fans who supported the band following the loss of all their equipment and personal possessions, which were destroyed in a van trailer fire whilst on tour in the US. The fire also resulted in the cancellation of the remaining tour dates.

Listen to Down here: 

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Aaron Matts says, Rapture for us is a product of each one of our experiences up until this moment; each moment lived on the road, every drop of inspiration picked up along the way. Written musically in the only way we know how, we took each one of our musical tastes and formed it into the ultimate album for ourselves, hoping that it will translate and fall onto the ears of the listeners the same way it falls onto ours. Rapture is a musical journey through each one of our minds, lyrics that come from both the darkest and lightest corners of our souls. We put everything into this one, leaving behind any preconceptions, and what came out the other side is something that we’re all so proud of, and we hope that the listener will feel it within themselves also.”
