Ov Sulfur: firmano con Century Media e lanciano un contest per il nuovo singolo ‘Wide Open’
OV SULFUR – firmano con Century Media Records e lanciano un contest per il nuovo singolo “Wide Open”
“Siamo entusiasti di unire le forze con Century Media, il cui roster stellare parla da sé. Sono stati in prima linea in ogni scena, raccogliendo regolarmente il meglio che ogni sottogenere avesse da offrire prima di esplodere sul serio. Il fatto che vedano in noi qualcosa di così positivo è fortemente rinvigorente, specialmente dopo solo un anno e qualche mese di vita come band.”
Inoltre, gli OV SULFUR si stanno preparando a pubblicare la loro nuova traccia “Wide Open” il prossimo 8 giugno. Nel frattempo la band ha lanciato un concorso per la traccia di debutto su Century Media. I fan possono salvare il singolo a partire da oggi e il fortunato vincitore si aggiudicherà la maglietta personalizzata di “Wide Open”, la stessa indossata da Ricky Hoover nel video di “Behind the Hand of God” e durante gli show dal vivo della band: https://www.toneden.io/
“Abbiamo accennato ‘Wide Open’ fin dal nostro primo video musicale, in cui Ricky indossava una maglietta su misura che divenne rapidamente la sua maglia da palcoscenico. Siamo felici che questa canzone liminale sarà la nostra prima uscita su Century Media, chiudendo l’ultimo capitolo e inaugurandone uno nuovo.”
“Fans have been asking about where to get that shirt for AGES, and as of now you can—well one person can. One person who pre-saves/pre-adds the single will win Ricky’s original shirt. (Don’t worry, we’ll wash it first.) We’ve also got a revamped version playing off the single art for sale on our Indie Merch store.”
Someone should have warned God to keep his enemies close because Ricky Hoover’s been biding his time and sharpening his blades. The former Suffokate vocalist swapped his mic for a straight razor, tour life for family life and, yes, those huge stretched ears for comparably large muscles. In short, Hoover is ready for war.
Last August’s Oblivion EP was just the first volley, one planned over a decade away from music. With Century Media on board, it’s about to get goddamn apocalyptic on forthcoming single “Wide Open” and beyond. “Wide Open” finds their blackened deathcore reaching bleaker depths, with Hoover’s growls plumbing the abyssic depths and summoning lesser demons’ screeching. Guitarists Chase Wilson and Matt Janz build the perfect brutal backdrop complete with three breakdowns—plus a dueling solo for good measure—while mononymously named rhythm section (bassist Ding and drummer Leviathvn) provide a solid yet frenetic base.
A band born from the pandemic, it’s been less than a year since the debut release and just over one since debut single “Behind the Hand of God,” yet the growth is palpable. The band sold out their first show, which doubled as a record release, following it with two weekends of solid headliners before hitting the road with the likes of Carnifex, Impending Doom, Signs of the Swarm, Bury Your Dead, Enterprise Earth, Worm Shepherd and more. Up next is a run supporting As I Lay Dying, Whitechapel and Shadow of Intent.
