Insurrection, the death metal powerhouse from Gatineau, Quebec, Canada, proudly presents their new single âBless the Machineâ. Accompanying the release, the band has also unveiled an exclusive playthrough video, giving fans an inside look at the technical prowess behind their music. This track is part of their forthcoming album âObsolescenceâ, which is set to drop on September 13, 2024, via the label Bam & Co. Heavy. The band comments on the track:
âThis is the final part of âThe New Uprisingâ trilogy. Musically, this song sounds like At the Gates playing Castlevania songs. Which you, the reader, will either completely understand, or be completely confused by. Weâre fine with that. Itâs fast, itâs melodic, and itâs just complicated enough so that every time you listen to it, you may find a tiny new thing.â
The band goes on to explain that the lyrics provide the conclusion to âThe New Uprisingâ trilogy, with this song in specific being a âprayer to the machineâ to eliminate the âfilthy human breedâ. The song was inspired by reflections on the death penalty, although the trilogy itself is about a Robotic Uprising, which is a metaphor for the rise of political extremism in the world.
Since their formation in 2003, Insurrection has captivated audiences with their high-energy performances and their unique blend of groovy death metal and thrash. They are recommended for those who enjoy Testament, Nevermore, and Bloodbath.
