Taking to social media to announce the single’s release, the band shared this statement: “We are proud to unleash the third single from our upcoming album, The Immortal Realm. This track features the legendary James Murphy (Death, Obituary, Disincarnate) ripping an epic solo. We are incredibly proud of this track and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.”
‘Higher Society’ is not for the faint of heart, with the track a brutal assault of monster riffs, head throbbing drumming and Marco Ieritano’s ear-shattering vocals.
