Long-running thrash metal outfit Forbidden‘s new single “Burning The Lungs Of Earth” has met its official release. That song is set for inclusion on the band’s forthcoming self-titled comeback album, which they will be issuing on October 23rd through BLKIIBLK. That outing will be the band’s first since 2010.
Guitarist Craig Locicero had a bit to share about this latest single off of that record, he offered:
“‘Burning The Lungs Of Earth‘ is a fast paced thrasher with complex riffs, soaring melodic vocals, thunderous drums & bass. The song mirrors the effects of mankind’s natural & unnatural disasters, coupled with the planetary cycle we find ourselves in decimating our ecosystems. Corporations, politicians & greed suffocating the planet. ‘First the smoke and seas will rise, the naive will remain blind. The world turns, the sun still shines as we slowly choke and die.'”
Their own Chris Kontos directed the video for it. Fall touring with Heathen and Void has been slated to launch next month, with the following dates in place:
