Enforced will have their third studio album “War Remains” out on April 28th through Century Media. The Richmond, VA-based quintet recorded the outing with Ricky Olson, while mixing took place with Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Kreator). The featured song “Ultra-Violence” serves as your first proper introduction to that effort, with a stream of it available below.
Vocalist Knox Colby commented of the record:
“‘War Remains‘ is a scathing perception of the modern crumbling world. Humanity seems imprisoned by its violent and chaotic nature; boiling over and doubling down on its own ignorance. The album contemplates and reflects upon the blight with cyclical themes rotating through the songs. It’s a hammer hitting a raw nerve.”
He continued:
“We didn’t overthink anything. It’s all very straight forward, no bells and whistles production-wise. It’s almost ten minutes shorter than our last record and packs ten times more of a punch.”
Guitarist Will Wagstaff added:
“This record [‘War Remains” is furious. If you aren’t in the mood to circle pit, head bang, disrupt the neighbors, etc. don’t put this thing on. From the second the needle touches the record, you are in for about 32 minutes of a non-stop, no frills, indiscriminate ass kicking. Toss out the samples, ambiance, and nonsense. All we need are JCM800s and some V30s to deliver inexorable riffage.”
