CONFESS Recruits NILE’s GEORGE KOLLIAS For New Single “Expedition”

Confess, the Iranian-Norwegian groove steel band, is now streaming their new single “Expedition” that includes Nile drummer George Kollias. The one is taken from Confess‘ new album Vacation spot Habit, which will probably be out on January 31.

“‘Expedition’ is a track that I wrote about two years in the past whereas the Girls, Life, Freedom motion was ongoing in Iran,” wrote Confess frontman Nikan Khosravi of the one. “Individuals took to the streets to protest the dying of Mahsa Amini by the hands of the morality police in Tehran. Throughout these days, many younger women and men had been arrested, injured, shot down, and later executed by the terrorist regime of Iran.

“The pictures had been horrifying, and the one factor I may do to seek out some launch was to channel all of my anger and assist by music. This track is devoted to the entire courageous women and men of Iran who’ve been preventing for his or her freedom for greater than 4 many years. The video we created for this track consists of all of the footage that went viral and was accessible. It is a very graphic music video that solely captures a fraction of the brutality of the inhumane behaviour of the Islamic regime of Iran in direction of the Iranian individuals.”

Vacation spot Habit was produced by Khosravi, and blended and mastered by Alberto De Icaza (Amon Amarth, Clutch, Dead Cross, and so forth.). Pre-orders can be found right here via Bandcamp and here via Confess‘ website.

On the album, Khosravi continued: “With Vacation spot Habit, we aimed to channel our private experiences and the turbulent instances we stay in into one thing musically modern and brutally trustworthy. This album is a testomony to our resilience and keenness for steel. Vacation spot Habit delves deep into themes of isolation, melancholy, dependancy, and suicidal ideas, reflecting our harrowing experiences following their arrest in 2015 and life in exile and I can say that this album is method darker than Revenge At All Prices!

“The lyrical content material affords a uncooked and important perspective on the political and social turmoil in Iran in addition to the broader world local weather, addressing the Girls, Life, Freedom motion in Iran, the battle within the Center East and Europe, and the risks of terrorism in in the present day’s world. This album is the aftermath of Revenge At All Prices!”
