ARTUSHAÂ is a finely tuned Groove Metal quartet that doesn’t strictly adhere to the boundaries of genre. Creatively, it’s as if they have combined raw power and the weight of meaning with a genuinely curious heart which makes something beautiful and filled with purpose. It’s not just a band, it’s a way of life.
ARTUSHA returns with a new official video for “Death to Life” directed by the band’s newest addition, drummer Cody Mausolf of TLP Films. “Death to Life” premieres today on Metal Insider, watch here: https://metalinsider.net/video/video-premiere-artusha-death-to-life
Cody Mausolf sums up the band’s video experience with “It all feels like a perfectly timed whirlwind of fun. Transitioning from just shooting the video to also performing provided a new challenge, but it all came together in a crazy day of filming! Excited for the future in the world of Artusha!”
“‘Death to Life’ for me is about the struggles we all face concerning morality, “ says vocalist Kent Stewart. “The trials we must face to prove who we are inside and out. We all have a choice to make. What do you stand for?“ Brian Hase, bass player, adds âFor me, ‘Death to Life’, musically, is a milestone of growth for our band. We still groove and thrash where it makes sense, but this song was an obvious sign of musical maturity and an expansion of our sonic range.â While guitarist David Landers sums it all up with “We all live and we all die. ‘Death to Life’ represents the struggles we face and the choice we have to fight against the darkest days and moments of life. Mentally, physically, or spiritually, you have a voice and a choice. Choose life over death and turn the soundtrack up. GET SOME!”Â
Artusha is an independent band that does just about everything in house. All music is recorded, mixed and mastered in guitarist David Lander‘s studio Zero Label Studio.
