hrown Into Exile to Release "Passageways" EP And Band Shares "Desolation" Video

 

California quintet THROWN INTO EXILE — Evan Seidlitz, vocals; Mario Rubio, guitar; Austin Monzon, lead guitar; Javi Quinto, bass; and Tom Tierney, drums — are pleased to announce their new EP, Passageways. It arrives on November 15. Pre-save the five-track EP HERE.  Today, the band has shared the video for first single "DESOLATION."

The song premiered on Chaos Hour, the show hosted by Trivium's Matthew K. Heafy, on SiriusXM's Liquid Metal earlier this week, as well.

It's a modern and thunderous anthem, packed with riffs and heavy artillery percussion that will have you banging your head so hard, you will burst blood vessels in the back of your beck.

 "'Desolation' is about the feeling you get inside when you unexpectedly lose someone close," says Seidlitz. "It's about feeling mentally desolate, empty, isolated, angry, and alone."

About the EP itself, Rubio comments, "The Passageways EP is heavy in more ways than musically. It deals with grief, loss, and the process that comes with it. At first, we wanted to do standalone singles, but these songs capture a certain state of mind as a band, so we decided to release it as a five-track EP."

Watch the video, which premiered over at Knotfest, HERE.
