Obligatory Post About New Music from Soilwork Demon Hunter

Then God said, “Let us make Demon Hunter in Soilwork’s image, in their likeness, so that they may rule over the riffs from the guitars and the beats from the drums, over the bassists and keyboardists and all the Speed Strid clones, and over all the metalcore copycats that move along the ground.”

And thus Demon Hunter’s transformation from metalcore copycat band into Soilwork clones was complete.

Kidding aside, this song isn’t bad at all: if it appeared on Soilwork’s next album with Speed Strid on vocals you’d certainly have me fooled. And there is precedent: Strid did once appear on a Demon Hunter record. But do we really need two Soilworks? Especially when one is miraculously, gloriously, stupendously secular?

Extremist comes out March 18th via Solid State Records.
