Orbit Culture announce new album Descent, drop single From The Inside

Orbit Culture have announced their new album Descent, and unleashed killer single From The Inside.

The Swedish metal rising stars will be releasing their new record on August 18 via Seek & Strike, with vocalist Niklas Karlsson proudly explaining of how it all came about: “We wanted this album to sound as big and aggressive as possible, while maintaining a pleasant listening experience. I took a lot inspiration from the movie Dune, not because of the story or anything, but because the combination of imagery and music created this vast picture and we wanted to convey that epic feel with this new album.”

Check out new single From The Inside below, which Niklas shares is “somewhat of a melancholic track, but with a deadly punch that works well over this atmospheric clean guitar. The intro felt right, the verse felt right and the chorus felt right. It’s just one of those songs that combined all of the elements of this album into a single track.

“The lyrics contain several metaphors talking about not really being fit in and dealing with life’s everyday bullshit. I drew a line between the similarity of solitude to being left outside in the cold, which mostly starts within yourself. That’s how the whole visual aspect of the video came from, being left out, seeing the world and the rest of the world can see you, but you can’t be touched.”
