God Dethroned Drop New Single “Rat Kingdom”, Announce New Album The Judas Paradox
Dutch black/death metal band God Dethroned are back with not just a new song lambasting the Vatican, as one’s wont to do, but they’re also announcing an entirely new record titled The Judas Paradox.
Due out on September 6, The Judas Paradox is 11 songs of self-produced pure fury. As for the single itself, frontman Henri Sattler outlined exactly what message they’re trying to convey with the track
“This song is about the Vatican and the many secrets that are being kept there, away from the eyes of the world. And he who speaks will disappear in the shadows down below. Musically, it’s a song that starts with a classic pile of melody lines, making it both hymnic and bombastic, followed by a blast of fury with a black metal vibe and the Serpent King’s very own style of guitar solo—one which stands out from the masses inspired by the late Jeff Hanneman.”
The Judas Paradox will be available on September 6 via Reigning Phoenix Music, but you can preorder your copy right now. If you’d like to catch ’em live, you can do so at one of the dates listed below with Batushka and Vltimas.
