Speaking on the brand new track, BRAND OF SACRIFICE frontman, Kyle Anderson adds
‘A big challenge for me this year was to bring in some different elements on the emotional spectrum into our music and lyrics, not just despair or anger. I wanted to express some of my personal story through this song. Dynasty is more uplifting – it’s about challenging yourself to overcome your personal obstacles while staring fear in the face and, much like Brand of Sacrifice as a whole, becoming an absolutely unstoppable force.’
“Dynasty” follows the release of track “Exodus“, the band’s first new music in over a year, in November last year to much furore from fans. “Exodus“, “Dynasty” and the upcoming EP mark the beginning of a new chapter of BRAND OF SACRIFICE.Maintaining their signature brutality and complexity, but upping it to a whole new level with a few surprises thrown in.
ABOUT BRAND OF SACRIFICE
Since 2018, Toronto-based deathcore quintet BRAND OF SACRIFICE have been imprinting their mark on the heavy music scene. Dubbed ‘The Branded Ones,’ the group’s fans joined and marched with them as they tore across the globe in support of their sophomore album “Lifeblood”, which debuted on 8 separate Billboard charts and earned them a Juno nomination for Metal Album of the Year. Other highlights included slots on highly anticipated tours with artists like Spiritbox, Thy Art is Murder, We Came as Romans & more.
BRAND OF SACRIFICE have pushed the envelope even further with their next release ‘Between Death and Dreams’. With production even more cinematic, exemplified by massive choral soundscapes, brutal breakdowns, and quite few surprises along the way, the EP is an exceptional evolution of their sound. Across their releases to date, BRAND OF SACRIFICE have hit 50 million streams and 10 million YouTube views.
The band draws its name from popular anime series Berserk by Kentaro Miura.
Fans at any BRAND OF SACRIFICE show will be familiar with set-closer “Eclipse” and its ending chant of, “Welcome to the new age.” With ‘Between Death and Dreams’, it’s evident the band have ushered in yet another, even fresher era from which there is no turning back.
