Austin, Texas based Doom Metal band Destroyer Of Light premiere the first single “Contagion” taken from their upcoming new album “Panic,” which will be released on November 11th, 2022. Stream the single through the YouTube player below:
Vocalist/guitarist Steve Colca comments: “Thematically, the album deals with natural disasters and people losing their minds as a result. They become selfish in panicked situations. This song, »Contagion«, is about a virus that is causing people to go crazy and turn on each other. End-of-the-world type paranoia and chaos-type mania. Ironically, I wrote this song – the music and lyrics – prior to the pandemic. There’s some moments of calm in the song, but ultimately it becomes heavingly heavy.“
