(ASPR) Wage War recently released the It Calls Me By Name EP via Fearless Records. It was a vicious selection of tracks where the band elected to indulge the more brutal side of its sound.
Today, they the release the video for the brand new standalone single "Sweet Dreams." And it continues the recent trajectory. While Wage War may have titled the new song "Sweet Dreams," it sounds like the soundtrack to your nightmare. And if you are a musical masochist who likes it loud, fast, brutal, and bloodcurdling, this song answers the call.
But it's not all bluster and sonic fists of fury. Rather, the band drops melodic vocals smack dab in the middle of the maelstrom to give you a bit of a breather and to make you think. It's an excellent execution of dynamics.
"'Sweet Dreams' is a song about being deceived by the world around you," the band explains. "About safety in a sense of blissful ignorance. Sonically, it draws inspiration from all of our previous work over the last 10 years."
