Today British heavy metal battalion War Grave set loose the second single from their upcoming self-titled debut EP. ‘War Graves‘ opens in a hi-octane assault of lightning riffs, thunderous rhythms and stunning vocals, going on to incorporate an array of glorious, metallic solos, superb harmonies and masterfully orchestrated shifts in mood and tempo – it’s an anthemic metal classic to be! In keeping with the song’s sombre subject matter the video shifts between superbly shot performance footage and powerful clips from the battlefield. As the band explain…
“‘War Graves’ is about a patriotic young man who is conscripted into the army only to lose his life early on in his deployment. As he goes from training to the battleground, he notes the manipulative psychological tactics of both sides, as he dies, his soul reflects on whether his and his fallen friends’ sacrifices were worth it.”

The War Grave EP, which was recorded at London’s Monolith Studios with producer Charlie Wilson Jnr. (Torchbearer, Graven Image etc) features five magnificent songs that fire the imagination and unleash a torrent of adrenaline. The world class vocals of singer Roman Kantoch (ex-More) lead the charge, backed by the immaculately crafted riffs and breathtaking solos of guitar team Trent Powell and Stuart Layne (ex-Virus), while drummer Steve Brill and bassist Charlie Gossett supply the heavy artillery. Together this incredible team have forged a superb set of songs, built upon their instinctive understanding of great heavy metal.
