Heavy metal is more than a genre, more than an attitude and certainly more than whatever cheap epithets are dismissively thrown at it by clueless critics. At its best, metal is a lifestyle, a community, a tribe uniting people across cultural, economic and philosophical divides with the primal pulse of bombastic and majestic expression.
Never before has one entity encapsulated so many components of the heavy metal community’s continued vibrancy and dedication to the lifestyle than the collective fittingly called METAL ALLEGIANCE.
METAL ALLEGIANCE will release their debut self-titled album on September 18th via Nuclear Blast. Today the band reveals the offical video clip to their track ‘Dying Song’, feat. Phil Anselmo on vocals.
Watch the clip here:
The band’s forthcoming new album includes appearances by Philip H. Anselmo, Charlie Benante, Chuck Billy, Randy Blythe, Rex Brown, Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal, Phil Demmel, Alissa White-Gluz, Matt Heafy, Gary Holt, Jamey Jasta, Chris Jericho, Andreas Kisser, Misha Mansoor, Mark Osegueda, Tim “Ripper” Owens, Doug Pinnick, Troy Sanders, Cristina Scabbia, Steve “Zetro“ Souza and Ben Weinman, in addition to Ellefson, Menghi, Portnoy and Skolnick.
