SACRED OATH Releases Second Single From World On Fire
October 21, 2010, 14 years ago
US true metal torch-bearers SACRED OATH have released a second single from their brand new album, World On Fire. The song, 'Sweet Agony', can be heard in the YouTube clip below.
“We really feel strongly that this is the best work we’ve done yet,” says Rob Thorne, vocalist/guitarist and producer for the band. “And yet we’re struggling, more now than ever, to survive in this business. We need more metal fans to know about Sacred Oath, and these YouTube singles seem like an ideal way to get the word out.”Like the first single 'Meet Your Make', the new single 'Sweet Agony' is part of the Dune concept that the album draws its inspiration from.
“There are many parallels to be drawn between the futuristic world of Dune and the global crises we face here today,” said Thorne in a recent radio interview. “If Dune was ahead of its time, well, sadly it was less than we thought.”American author Frank Herbert first published Dune in 1968.
Sacred Oath will release World On Fire as an iTunes exclusive this Tuesday, October 26th – just in time for Halloween. The deluxe bundle includes 11 songs and a PDF of the cover art, lyrics and liner notes. All other major digital retailers will have the album available for sale on November 9th (worldwide). A digipack CD version with lyric booklet will also be available in North America. No physical release date has been set for Europe, Japan, or South America as of yet.
