From blossoms in the individualist's daring footsteps into the dark, to a rotten apple eaten from inwards by actors building from and never upon it. A road any art form seems bound to wander, as if dying from the moment its last rule is dictated and the first work is based upon it. Once all terms appear reduced to imply gimmick ridden emulations of things past, the newborn will better define itself through negation.
Source, upon forming in the year of the Lord 2012, thus could quickly establish it was not heavy metal written for the sake of being heavy metal, that it shunned the word "community" and found "by fans for fans" to be the most detestable slogan ever. And many, many other things.
With this first official demonstration of power, spanning three songs recorded during 2016, begins a life long process of defining what Source in fact is, aside a musical ejaculation in celebration of the eternal Adversary.
Tracklisting:
“Crossroads Calling”
