Extinction A.D. announce new EP ‘Ruthless Intent’
EXTINCTION A.D. have announced a new EP!
Titled Ruthless Intent, the upcoming EP from the Long Island-based crossover thrash metal band is the follow-up to last year’s Culture Of Violence, and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via Unique Leader Records.
Speaking about the upcoming new EP, the band says, “from the beginning of putting this EP together, we knew there was something a little more visceral than usual and we really leaned into it. Not just the lyrics but the delivery and not just the arrangements and pacing of the songs, but the sonic quality. The entire thing is confrontational.”
Alongside the announcement of the new EP, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming EP; Prodigal Scum. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming EP, following on from Morality Bait, which was released back in August.
Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, vocalist Rick Jimenez says, “I’ve never been shy about my feelings of the outside world and how the broader picture of humanity affects me, but it’s not very often that I speak about my individual little world in EXTINCTION A.D.. Prodigal Scum is a full on personal life experience and something that was empowering to put on tape and also into the video.”
