Chosen Sons

DivineBullet Wow Post Death Sountrack has a dark ambient that i love it

dominicwilliams86 Post Death Soundtrack have managed to invoke a retro Vangelis style approach in their sound which makes Chosen Sons a really interesting track for those who love this genre.

postchaos11 The synth-bass arpeggio hooked me into it cause I'm a big fan of this type of analog production. Vancouver seems like it still got something to do with industrial scene & this music sounds like a righteous descendant of Skinny Puppy. those harsh vocal parts at the beginning are not my favourite but I dig the rest of them

about

A dimly-lit journey through disfigured monstrosities and oddity-laden chasms serves as the visual backdrop for the first offering from Post Death Soundtrack's vitriolic third album. The sardonic trudge-hop of the lead single 'CHOSEN SONS' takes woozy mellotron strings akin to Bowie's Blackstar and splices in cryptic samples, digital dive-bombs, a serene Arabian breakdown, and a punishing final statement amid the roars of beasts.

This serves as the soundtrack to Steve Moore's scathing commentary on extremist groups like ISIS or Al-Qaeda. Temporarily placing himself in the shoes of one of these misguided soldiers, Moore investigates with biting sarcasm, the tragic path from scorned youth to radicalized zealot. Committing atrocities for a God that he will likely never meet.

"Organizations like ISIS happily recruit child soldiers online and enjoy the luxury of selective, self-referential truth. Donning their black masks and strutting in the parade, this is our ode to these huffing and puffing children, these chosen sons." -Steve Moore

"This music video was a departure for me - using CGI as oppose to live-action - and was a whole new way of getting creative. Thank you Jon and Steve for this opportunity to put to screen some darker depths." - Video creator Colin Everall

lyrics

All paths lead to the same place…Ignorance
With the new suit comes a new face…of innocence
You are such a bright light
Cruising for moths
It’s in your nature to prey on the lost
Tradition rots you from inside
Cheap trinkets in your eyes
Everyone in costumes
Waiting for the call
The call that never comes
The task that’s never done
Beneath a tunnel vision sky
The perfect place for hope to hide

You are the chosen son on this bastard day
The virgins laugh. The fools obey.
You don the black mask
Strut in the parade
With the chosen sons on this bastard day

We were born on the run
Our penance is never done
Fools waiting for the Sun
We bow down to the Beast, the Lord, the One

Raven King

Raven King's eponymous effort kicks off with a Nirvana influenced 'Carnival'. If you keep listening, you'll find that's just one of the many grunge influences that has been expertly woven into this album. The vocal quality is a little muddy in some songs, but perhaps that's what was intended. Drifting has the best production on the album and is easily a favorite. dominicwilliams86
