Sweden’s Åskväder have released the fourth and final single from their upcoming sophomore album “Fenix.” The new song, titled “Zealot”, is a punchy and direct track with a driving drum beat and electrifying melodies. The single is a true outburst of Garage Rock energy, recorded live in the studio.
Martin Gut from the band comments on the single: ”Zealot was a really tough one to record, definitely the song that took the most amount of takes to get right. The inspiration for writing the track came from listening to a podcast about the band Enforcer. To put it short, this track is Åskväder’s take on speed metal. The lyrics describe how life can change quickly for the little man depending on circumstances that are bigger than ourselves, and how we have to follow the rules of the system fanatically.”
Åskväder‘s sophomore studio album “Fenix” will see a March 25, 2022 release via The Sign Records. Stream the track throughthe YouTube player below:
