Irish progressive technical metal crew AeSect continue their campaign of face-melting isolated singles with ‘Cease and Assist‘, the third offering following previous singles, ‘Revolutionary Suicide‘ and ‘Simulacra‘, and by far, the most intense.
Noticeably faster and more aggressive the new single lean towards the band’s thrash’ roots. Available digitally, you can check out the official video for the track here, but please note, the video contains NSFW scenes of a distressing nature and should be viewed by people 18 years or older.
The band features Luke Peters (Drums), Dave Kennedy (Guitars), Aidan O’Holloran (Guitars) and vocalist/bassist, Aidan ‘Willow’ Williams who said; “‘Cease and Assist’ is based on the idea that we are all complicit in our inevitable destruction, and for the most part, people seem okay with it until it’s at our door step.
“Civil unrest, genocides, religious wars, media fanning the flames with the promise of hire ratings, meanwhile political and environmental atrocities becoming the day to day normality. The fear is by the time we’ve righted the wrongs it’ll be too late and at that point anarchy. The moral fabric of our society will cease to exist, and we will have assisted in the destruction.”
With a ferocity that leaves no room for compromise, ‘Cease and Assist’ is said to serve as a rallying cry for the disenchanted and a beacon of hope for those who dare to defy the status quo.
