As They Sleep Post New Track

Detroit’s rising technical death metal group, As They Sleep, has posted a brand new track on their official MySpace and Facebook pages, “To the Republic”, taken from the band’s forthcoming Solid State Records debut, Dynasty. “To the Republic” focuses on the issues surrounding the United States today, and builds upon the album’s conceptual focus on the rise and fall of empires throughout history.

Head over to: http://www.myspace.com/astheysleep or: www.facebook.com/pages/As-They-Sleep/36666539944 for a glimpse at what As They Sleep has in store when Dynasty releases next month.

A video blog, providing further insight into the new track, both lyrically and musically, can be seen at: http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=902918207545 and: http://www.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoId=106874720,.

Dynasty is slated to hit stores on November 22^nd, and delivers a package of brutally heavy and savagely technical death metal, tied together with the help of powerhouse audio wizard, Jason Suecof (All That Remains, Chimaira, Demon Hunter).

The new record can be pre-ordered now at: http://www.zambooie.com/solidstate/detail.tpl?sku=SSRCD26491&cart=128534586119100. A special Dynasty CD/t-shirt combo can also be pre-ordered at: http://www.zambooie.com/solidstate/detail.tpl?sku=SSRCOMBO26491&.

“This is one of the best pure metal albums released this year. It is hard to believe that a band with this much talent could slip through the cracks for so long, but they are here now and ready to kick your teeth in,” raves IndieVisionMusic.com.
