May 7, 2020, 4 years ago
Night Demon have released a bass playthrough for their single "Empires Fall". Watch the clip, featuring Night Demon bass guitarist Jarvis Leatherby, below.
The hard-hitting, take-no-prisoners track chronicling the demise of the record industry was released worldwide via Century Media Records in early April and was mixed by Josh Newell & mastered by Brad Boatright. Punk legends, Lars Fredrickson and Matt Freeman of Rancid, as well as James Paul Luna of Holy Grail also contributed background vocals to the track.
Watch the lyric video for "Empires Fall" below and purchase the single on all streaming platforms and as a 7" vinyl, which includes a cover version of Le Griffe's "Fast Bikes" on the B-side, here.
Night Demon recently announced the worldwide release of their new single, "Kill The Pain". Go behind the song for an in-depth look at the making of "Kill The Pain" in this new video:
“Kill The Pain” marks the band’s second single release of spring 2020, following hot on the heels of the scorching "Empires Fall".
Night Demon fulfilled a lifelong dream by recording this single at Sweet Silence Studios in Copenhagen, Denmark under the watchful eye of famed producer Flemming Rasmussen. Of course, Rasmussen has left an indelible mark on heavy metal history through his work on Metallica’s Ride The Lightning, Master Of Puppets, and …And Justice For All albums, among many others.
“Kill The Pain” is a tough-as-nails bruiser of a song that showcases Night Demon’s signature sound, a revved-up modernized take on classic British and American metal. Lyrically, however, the track marks a thematic departure by delving into serious, deeply personal subject matter. It tackles the heavy topic of suicide, forged in the pain of life experiences but with an inspiring message of hope and perseverance through adversity.
The B-side of "Kill The Pain" is a blistering cover of Cirith Ungol’s “100 mph”, with Night Demon’s Jarvis Leatherby and Cirith Ungol’s Tim Baker sharing lead vocal duties. Given the brotherhood between these two Ventura-based bands, and their years of traveling and performing together, “100 mph” marks a special collaboration as they join forces to breathe new life and power into this oft-overlooked gem from the One Foot in Hell album.
