Bay Area thrashers VIO-LENCE have unleashed a new track called “Let The World Burn” off their new EP of the same name which arrives on March 4.
You can listen to the song below.
In a press release, founding VIO-LENCE guitarist and former MACHINE HEAD guitarist Phil Demmel explained why the band is making their comeback with an EP instead of an LP after so many years.
“I didn’t want to do a full-length,” he said. “I figured three, maybe four [songs], and we settled on five tunes that could really encapsulate what we were doing.”
Demmel added, “I went to Metal Blade [Records] and spoke with [label founder] Brian Slagel, saying we wanted to do this with them — we weren’t shopping labels, we weren’t looking for a bidding war or anything like that, we just wanted to do a record with them, and they were all into it.”
