Inter Arma recently announced their long-awaited new record New Heaven due out April 26, and now they're streaming the single "Concrete Cliffs". Equal parts trudging, cavernous death metal and slow-moving melodic death metal, it's not a single you should be skipping out on.
"While sonically 'Concrete Cliffs' doesn't exactly traverse any new terrain in the Inter Arma universe-psychedelia, one note knuckle dragger riffs and Lizzy-esque harmony guitars-it marks the first time we've ever gone after a harsh verse/melodic chorus dichotomy within a song," said Inter Arma's TJ Childers. "It's kind of a classic metal recipe that we put our own fucked up spin on. Hope ya'll dig it."
Additionally, Inter Arma have dropped a limited edition "Concrete Cliffs" t-shirt of which 10% of proceeds go to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) of Virginia. Get it here.
On the shirt, Childers said: We are releasing a 'Concrete Cliffs' t-shirt today to coincide with the release of the song and music video. It's limited to 200 pieces and 10% of the proceeds of each t-shirt sale will be donated to NAMI Virginia to help ensure that all Virginians continue to have access to mental health resources if and when they need it. Thank you."
