Dååth has been having one hell of a comeback between their latest record The Deceivers and all the killer cover songs they rolled out prior. Now Dååth is revisiting their 2007 breakthrough single "Subterfuge" with their current lineup, and yes – that means vocalist Sean Z is finally performing on the track.
"Old song, new lineup, new era, new recording. 'Subterfuge' was our first real single, widely released in 2007, and for many fans, it's the song that put us on the map," said founding Dååth guitarist Eyal Levi. "However, Sean Z wasn't part of the band back then; he joined in 2008. Since then, fans haven't stopped asking us to release the track with his vocals.
"We wanted to do something special for those who've stuck with us over the years, especially through the hiatus. But simply replacing the vocals on the original, when I'm the only remaining member from that lineup, didn't feel true to where we are now. The original is a moment in time that can't be recreated, so why mess with it?
"Instead, we re-recorded the song from scratch, using seven-string guitars tuned to drop G (the original is in drop C), got Dave Otero to mix, and created a version that honors the original but hits hard like a modern track. We hope you enjoy it!"
