Swedish death metal maniacs Unleashed have just come out with a brand new single, entitled “You Are the Warrior!“. That exclamation mark right there is a perfect reflection of the utter blistering feeling of impending doom you feel listening to the track, as if it plugs you into a power outlet and charges you to 110%.
Bassist/Vocalist Johnny Hedlund gave a press release statement about the track:
In the battle of life there will be moments, for the Warrior, when the whole world seems to be against you. When pain and suffering is at its peak and everything is pitch black. This is the time to recall the reason for the struggle, and to remember those before you, their resolve and will of steel. You aim for the most noble deed of all and strive toward greatness, the highest of all ideals. That…is the call to Odin. As you sail into the great unknown of life, the great adventure, there will be dark clouds on the horizon, and know that sooner or later the winds will die down, and YOU will need to ROW. That… is the hour of the Midgard Warrior. It is then your time to bear the axe of responsibility, and the shield of protection for those who cannot protect themselves. Your forefathers’ battle is over, this is now yours! You are the Warrior! And You FIGHT!
