German thrash metallers DEW-SCENTED have updated their MySpace player to stream the new song 'Arise From Decay', lifted from their new album, Invocation, to be released May 25th in North America via Prosthetic Records, and May 24th in Europe via Metal Blade. Check it out at this location.

Vocalist Leif Jensen comments: "We are happy to finally be able to debut a new song for all of you to hear! 'Arise From Decay' is the new album's opening track (after the instrumental intro piece 'Downfall') and a really good representation of not only what the album is all about, but also of what we sound like in 2010. 'Arise From Decay' combines many of the band's 'trademark' elements into a straight forward and pretty vicious song. This song was actually one of the first fully finalized tracks when we started writing the Invocation album with the band's new lineup and we have already been playing it live for a while now with great response. Enjoy!"

Dew-Scented premiered 'Arise From Decay' two weeks ago at the Moita Fest in Portugal. Check out the live version of 'Arise From Decay' below.

The artwork for Invocation (click image at left to enlarge) was created by the band’s longterm partner Björn.

Leif Jensen comments: “We were lucky to work with Björn / Killustrations again and he did an amazing job on this one, nailing down an apocalyptic artwork that fits perfectly to our style as well as the concept/vibe of Invocation. Total Thrash! We have been working with Killustrations non-stop for all our albums and merchandising matters since 2003’s release Impact and are once more very proud of the final results!”

Invocation will contain 12 songs in its regular edition and an additional two bonus tracks for the limited first pressing Digipak version via Metal Blade Records in Europe.

'Downfall' (Instrumental)

Furthermore, Dew-Scented have just announced a very special Invocation album release show in Bremen / Northern Germany at the Tower club, where the band already presented their previous album Incinerate back in 2007. The concert will take place on Friday, June 4th, and next to an especially long D-S set, the show will also feature legendary death-thrash metallers and labelmates GOD DETHRONED from The Netherlands as well as local Northern German death metal friends DESPONDENCY. The club’s traditional metal disco will run after the show as well and the low-priced tickets for the gig will start to be pre-sold as of next week, so look out.
