Harnessing the spirit of early 80s thrash metal, Dublin-based four-piece, Saint Slaughter drive their intensive brand of classic metal into your skull with their latest belter, new single ‘Led To Treason’.
The new single follows on from their previous release, ‘Inglorious’ – a boisterous, snarling tip of the hat to artists such as Sadus, Sodom, Kreator, and Kill Em’ All–era Metallica.
“‘Led To Treason’ is a song about how propaganda and the war industry, take people’s ideals and urge to defend them into fuel for a meat grinder, that only serves people who view war as a bump in their stock portfolio,” said the band.
Featuring Tom Moylan – Drums, Eoin Clarke – Vocals, Spencer O’Brien -Bass and Jeff Hernandez – Guitars, Saint Slaughter has built a strong presence in the flourishing Irish Metal scene post-lockdown and reached the Grand Final of this year’s Bloodstock Metal 2 The Masses Ireland showcase in May. They will be official supporting UK Thrashers, Xentrix for their 30th Anniversary Tour this coming October, where they will share the bill with fellow, Irish thrashers Psykosis and others.
