Deadly Sins And Virtues with Webb

Award winning prog-metal trio Webb is to release a new album in Deadly Sins And Virtues, that’s preceded by the music video for album track ‘Hope’, that you can check out here at RAMzine.

“If there is no hope, we wouldn’t have anything to get excited about,” declared vocalist/guitarist Ryan Webb. “Hope is such an important feeling. We all have hopes of one kind or another, whether it’s hoping people will become kinder towards each other, or even hoping a war will end. It’s definitely something we all need.”

Mastered by Grammy Award winning mastering engineer Dave Collins (Metallica, Alice In Chains, Slipknot), Deadly Sins And Virtues was produced and mixed by Ryan Webb in his studio. Focused, potent and all prevailing, the new album delivers on the potential showcased by previous releases and presents a collection of music hard rock and metal fans will devour.

Webb is a  hard-hitting prog-metal power trio from the South West of England who recently won best Hard Rock and Metal Act 2022 at the Radio Wigwam Awards in London. 

The new album, Deadly Sins And Virtues, was written with one specific theme in mind. Good and bad. Centuries ago, a list of sins and virtues was created; evil actions vs good deeds, dark against light. Webb created their own version of what they consider to be deadly (not in the literal sense though) sins and virtues. Representing toxicity in a modern society that’s grappling with digital exhaustion and a planet at crisis point, Webb’s new album points towards a sense of renewed hope and a positive message that there’s always a way forward.

Deadly Sins And Virtues is a concept album which we’d had in mind for a while. Notably, the seven deadly sins have been a popular motif in art and literature, persisting as a concept through the centuries, that’s entered into the realms of pop culture courtesy of the innovation of media. We wanted to stamp our own take on this, with a few twists,” said the band. “With this new record, we achieved what we were aiming for and have managed to unleash the Webb sound that had been lurking in the shadows. We hope you enjoy the new album  as much  as we enjoyed making it.”

Tracks featured on the album are: ‘You’re Going Down’, ‘Spread Your Wings’, ‘Hate’, ‘Keep Fighting’, Can’t Break Me’, ‘Nights In White Satin’, ‘Hope’, ‘Don’t Ask Why’ and ‘Stay Alive’.

Deadly Sins And Virtues will be released 30th June 2023. The CD is available for pre-order now, with digital platforms to follow soon.
