More information about Rituals of Power

Death Metal extremists MISERY INDEX are now premiering the second track taken from their upcoming album ‘Rituals of Power’. The new offering is slated for release on March 08th, 2019 via Season of Mist.

The title track is now streaming in the form of a lyric video via Decibel Magazine at the link here.

MISERY INDEX comment on the track: “‘Rituals of Power’ represents the album’s title track and most musically dynamic offering. We wanted to create something that captured the tension of this modern era; something that conjures visions of civilizational collapse and lost ideals gone astray and embeds them in riffs as monolithic as they are haunting. It is an anthem of hope as much as it is a cautionary tale about the use and abuse of power; an end-times farewell letter from the front lines of history. Turn it up and enjoy the ride…”
