Paradise Slaves‘ debut album “With Hell In His Eyes” is now set to arrive on May 02nd via Spinefarm. That band unites several familiar faces from the metalcore scene, including ex-36 Crazyfists vocalist Brock Lindow, former Diecast members Jon Kita (guitar) and Brad Horion (bass) and drummer Ryan Manning (Pentagram, Blitzkid). Guitarist Tyler Stroetzel, brother of Killswitch Engage‘s Joel Stroetzel, completes the lineup.
A music video for the previously released song “Dreamers” has just gone up online, having been filmed with David Brodsky (Cannibal Corpse, Whitechapel) . Lindow spoke of that track, offering:
“My wife is from South Africa, and we battled immigration for five years. She couldn’t leave the entire time, and her parents had gotten sick. It was really rough. It’s about our situation, the personal struggle, the hardships we dealt with.”
As for the album, Lindow shared:
“To me, the overall concept of With Hell In His Eyes is to never surrender, continue to fight, and continue to be grateful for life. Those were my thoughts. I’m a 49-year-old man who has lived and learned a lot. No one is perfect. Coming to this realization, trying to be better each day is a definitely goal.”
