BLOODSHOT DAWN release a new single

UK melodic death metallers Bloodshot Dawn, have released a brand new single, “Theoktony,” ALL of the proceeds from this track will benefit the Sophie Lancaster Foundation*—and we’d say that’s the most metal way to promote your music.

 

“Lyrically the song is about not letting your life be dictated by others, omnipotent or otherwise,” said drummer/vocalist, Doug Anderson. Some may see the title (literally meaning ‘the death of a god/all gods’) as bible bashing, or blasphemous. If people wish to read into it this way they can, but it’s more about questioning your beliefs, not being a blind follower, a sheep.”

 

The single was recorded, mixed and mastered at Envy Studios in Hampshire by Jack Stephens and Rich Worrall, shortly before the band departed on an extensive October UK tour with Xerath and Decapitated.

 

On November 15th, they’ll be taking it to Japan for an “Extreme Metal Over Japan” tour with Swedish melodic death group, Deals Death, before rounding off the year in December with a tour in India featuring Flayed Disciple.  Finally, they’ll be hitting up “Indian Metal Fest” (awesome name, we know!) with Xerath, Cerebral Bore , Gojira and more!
