Self-described ‘Death Western’ band SpiritWorld have signed a deal with Century Media Records. In honor of the signing comes the below video for their track “Comancheria“. In addition to that, the band, who are led by vocalist Stu Folsom, have digitally re-released their current album “Pagan Rhythms“.
“Pagan Rhythms” was produced by Sam Pura (The Story So Far, Self Defense Family) and features studio drumming from Thomas Pridgen of The Mars Volta/Trash Talk fame on half of the record. Former Apiary drummer Adam Elliot sat behind the kit for the other half of the record.
Folsom said of his vision for this album, which will be given a physical re-release on November 05th:
“It’s about trying to write killer songs and craft a classic record. With ‘Pagan Rhythms‘, I set out to distill my love of thrash, old school death metal, and hardcore into something new that would hit like a tomahawk right in the face. When I first started telling people about this idea, I had to merge Western imagery, horror fiction, and heavy metal into an all-out sonic assault. It seemed ridiculous, but I truly believe that if you make great records people are a lot more willing to embrace your weirdness and come along for the ride.”
