The Sound and Fury of Death Ray Vision
My connection to Death Ray Vision runs deep. Keith Bennett, the band's frontman, and yours truly go way back to our hardcore days in the gritty streets of Boston. So, when I approached Keith with a proposition to feature him as a Viking warrior in one of our forthcoming issues of Vikings vs. Samurai, he didn't hesitate to jump on board. The man was gungho!
But here's the twist. Just a week later, the news hit me like a thunderbolt: Death Ray Vision was dropping their new album, and it was called No Mercy From Electric Eyes. I had to check it out, no doubt about it. So, I sat down, pressed play, and let the electrifying waves of sound wash over me. I was hooked from the first damn note. And now their album is finally here!
Death Ray Vision is a potent blend of hardcore, punk, and metal. And with their third full-length album, No Mercy From Electric Eyes, they've reached a new level of metal mastery. This isn't just another record. It's a declaration of creative freedom and a testament to their relentless pursuit of sonic exploration. Death Ray Vision poured their hearts into this album, aiming to tour internationally. They take pride in standing out in the metal scene, offering heaviness without extreme tunings and balancing aggression with melody.
No Mercy From Electric Eyes is more than just music. It's a war cry. Death Ray Vision fearlessly tackles the state of the world, fueled by anger and discontent. Bennett pours his gratitude for life into every heartfelt lyric, revealing personal emotions and experiences. From police brutality to societal chaos and self-destruction, their tracks dig deep into the darkness that plagues our existence.
You owe it yourself to listen to No Mercy From Electric Eyes. Loudly.
