about
“Restless” is our attempt to signal boost serious subject matter that we hold very close to our hearts. The Indigenous People of Canada have been facing injustices and ridicule since we encroached on their land hundreds of years ago.
With the recent & ongoing discoveries being unearthed at residential school sites across Canada, we wanted to speak up, show our support and stand in solidarity with our First Nations people. This song is a stark reminder that these atrocities happened and the fallout will not just dissipate. We haven’t forgotten.
To do this right, we worked exclusively with Indigenous music video directors & editors to allow them to tell their story and speak their truths. We are here to scream alongside them as they seek answers and accountability.
We want to give a huge shout-out and thank you to Á’a:líya Warbus and her team at Salish Legends Media for doing this with us and telling their narrative through this gorgeously shot video. Special thanks as well to Julian Morgan for helping to organize and for taking the single art picture. Net profits (after production and shipping costs) made from the “Restless” merch drop will be donated to Indian Residential School Survivors Society.
One by one you let the dominoes fall
Single file, bring them in
Sought out to reform them all
“These savages will have to learn this the hard way
Pray to our god or find yourselves in a mass grave
Get in line! Get in Line! Get in Line!
Meet my radicalized vision of mankind!
I am the shepherd who brought the sheep to slaughter
I am a wolf disguised as a martyr
I am the shepherd who brought the sheep to slaughter
I am a wolf disguised as a martyr
Born into pestilence
I see you all as lesser than
Based on your beliefs and pigmentation of your skin
You’re all the devil’s children
And god will be thy name
I’m here to rid you of your sins
I’ll set your world ablaze”
Ashes rain…
Down on their nameless graves
Never to be seen again
Where the ** are they now!?
Tears will fall where cathedrals still remain
We’re still finding them
We won’t stop finding them
But we remain complacent in these archaic ways
Our vision is clouded, ingrained into our society
Innocent youth, buried six feet deep
We close our blind eyes and slowly fall asleep while
Before Ashen, I thought they were overrated. Deathcore bands seem to have a capacity to evolve quickly. I’ve seen quite a few bands in this genre grow exponentially from one album to the next, and Ashen is a particularly strong example. Metallurgical Fire
The vocals alone on the first track will blow your mind. Worm Shepherd is a next level band, frightening and very dynamic. Some of the best music in any metal sub genre. The Sleeping Sun is a truly exceptional EP that hits harder than most full length albums. This is their best release, and I can’t wait for the next one. Metallurgical Fire
Few things hit harder than this album…and so damn catchy! Great lyrics too. Anything that talks about Anunnaki armies and such is bound to be great. aelia
Chicago deathcore outfit Into the Silo torch everything in sight on this searing new LP with riffs that will leave bruises. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2022
Midwestern prog-metal stalwarts go for the throat on their new EP, featuring a roiling cover of the Smashing Pumpkins' “1979.” Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2019
I am more a melodeath guy than deathcore, but I enjoy all the symphonic elements or rythym changes. This album is a BLAST omg my neck hurt, so much headbang🤘🤘 olive855
