South African deathcore band Vulvodynia are now streaming the title track to their forthcoming album, “Entabeni“. Damonteal Harris of slam/death metal outfit PeelingFlesh guests on this song. This record is Vulvodynia‘s first since promoting their guitarist Lwandile Prusent to lead vocals following a violent split with Duncan Bentley. “Entabeni“, the album, will be out on July 05th.
Vulvodynia commented:
“‘Entabani‘ is a very important album for us, it sees us at crossroads in our career. We’ve fully embraced the idea of writing as a collective, exploring every member’s ideas, experiences and formed them all together to create what we think is our most ambitious album yet. We wanted to explore the concept of African folklore on this album and based a lot of the songs off of old stories found in poems, books and even through word of mouth from our vocalist Lwandile’s older family members.”
“The word Entabeni means ‘The Mountain’ in the African language Isizulu. It explores the concept of initiation in the different tribes and cultures that practice it. We want this first single to really make a statement and believe this is the most confident we’ve ever sounded! We hope our fans can accept and embrace the changes we’ve undergone.”
