German heavy metal band Dust Bolt has released a live version of their 2010 track ‘Children Of Violence’ on AFM Records.
Vocalist Lenny B said of the release: “Bam! The song ‘Children Of Violence’, originally from the first demo EP Chaos Possession from 2010, is one of the band’s earliest creations and holds almost symbolic significance for us and our early companions! Now, it is released exclusively as a live version on AFM Records!
“The Chaos Possession EP is in very few hands and is practically unavailable anywhere. That’s why it was especially important for us to release a fresh version of ‘Children Of Violence’ as a special gift to our loyal fans and supporters!”
The single is now available on all digital streaming providers here and you can check out the video here at RAMzine.
Since their formation in 2007, Dust Bolt has been resolute and ruthless in their pursuit of metal glory over the last 16 years. Childhood friends with a collective passion for metal in all its various forms, the quartet have established themselves as one of Europe’s leading thrash metal bands. Their latest album, Sound & Fury, refines and noisily redefines the band’s sound for a new era.
Written during those isolated months of pandemic lockdown, Sound & Fury represents the peak of the band’s creativity and a major leap forward in every department. The first DUST BOLT record to feature new bassist Tom Liebing, alongside Lenny Bruce, guitarist Florian Dehn and drummer Nico Remann, Sound & Fury grew from a long period of self-reflection that began when the world shut down.
“Sound & Fury was created during the probably darkest and most difficult time for the band.” Lenny B revealed.”First time in our lives, since we were kids, we were somehow separated from another and the dream we lived together seemed to stopped. It was during the pandemic days when the band even decided to take a break from one another when Flo came up with this beautiful piece of music – not knowing how he would channel and express our feelings, leading to LB putting some Dust Bolt unusual, but heartfelt vocals on it and having Nico introducing a disco beat to a metal song in the end. We didn’t know what was happening – we just did it. We did know, there’d be a million voices saying we can’t put this up on a Dust Bolt record. But more than that we knew as long as we stick together, we can do anything the *** we want“. Sound & Fury is a story about friendship, struggle & inner turmoil.
Although still rooted in thrash and old-school metal, the new record adds colour and diversity to the band’s sound and can be ordered here.
