Till The Dirt, the new band headed up by Atheist frontman Kelly Shaefer, is now streaming their new single "Starring Role". And if you're wondering why the production sounds so damn heavy, it's because Till The Dirt brought legendary death metal producer Scott Burns out of retirement for the project.
"'Starring Role' is the first track on the album," said Shaefer. "It's a song that ranks among my favorites on the record, and also a favorite of producer Scott Burns. It's a straight up ripper! It encompasses all of the unique hybrid qualities of this whole album. Lyrically it is a song about the oddness of dreams and the role we sometimes do not seem to play, or understand as we awake from them. This is a perfect banger for cranking loud, and driving at high speeds!"
Till The Dirt will release their debut album Outside The Spiral on August 25. Pre-orders are available here.
