Wage War Announce New EP Out 4/17 Announce Spring Tour + Drop Brutal "SONG OF THE SWAMP"

WAGE WAR - Briton Bond [lead vocals], Cody Quistad [rhythm guitar, clean vocals], Seth Blake [lead guitar], Chris Gaylord [bass], and Stephen Kluesener [drums] - are thrilled to announce their forthcoming EP, titled It Calls Me By Name. The band will unleash the latest beastly addition to its catalog on April 17 via Fearless Records.
Today, the band dropped the video for the first single "SONG OF THE SWAMP" and it's the most brutal song they've released in years - if not EVER!
What populates the thick and humid swamps of Florida? Alligators, anacondas, and other cold-blooded animals that can eviscerate your existence with a single bite. Fittingly, Wage War's absolutely savage new track, "Song of the Swamp," sounds exactly like how you would feel if any or all of the above-mentioned predators sank their teeth into your flesh. Rife with bloodthirsty screams, deadly riffage, and pummeling percussion that'll make you feel like the speedbag at the local boxing gym, it rages from start to finish. You will be, as the lyrics snarl, "overpowered" by every note. And that's just how metal masochists like it!
"The tone setter," the band declares. "'SONG OF THE SWAMP' is rooted in where we're from. Driven by Florida and the raw aggression of nature, it's a heavy track built on tension and hostility."

Regarding the EP as a whole, the band says, "It Calls Me By Name is about being drawn to your roots. This isn't a concept EP but is meant to live in its own world. Five tracks shaped by Florida, the swamp, and the relentless aggression of nature. Built heavy, but still driven by the hooks that have defined us. It's our signature sound amplified and pushed further into metal than we've ever taken it."
