If there is one thing Dew-Scented know how to do, it's write crunchy riffs. And that's exactly what their new track, "Affect Gravity" aims to do. These guys aren't reinventing the wheel, they're just building very sturdy wheels, so to speak.
The Germans, they are efficient, even when it comes to creating awesome thrash metal! The press release features some quotes from the dudes describing the song:
Singer Leif Jensen: "'Affect Gravity' is probably a bit of an unusual track for DEW-SCENTED and not only because of the talkbox at the beginning. It's got quite some melodic riffing and a very dark twist to things, but it's always dynamic and heavy. It turned out to be one of my personal fave-tracks on the album and I look forward to playing it live too!"
drummer Koen Herfst: "I tried to really emphasize the aggressiveness of the song by playing pretty much straight forward and really loud in the parts that ask for it. Love the way the toms turned out in the mix which makes the parts that lead into the verses really heavy. Halfway the song I do a groove inspired by Derek Roddy, which is basically a blast beat on my second snare combined with a back beat on my main snare. After that, I do a really heavy and basic groove which breaks things open in the guitar solo."
If you need a little more, you can hear the single they released a few weeks ago, "On A Collision Course" right here.
The band's new album, Intermination is out June 30th. Pre-orders available here.
