Metalcore bands are defined by the quality of their breakdowns. A good one will cause absolute carnage in the pit; a bad one will languish in the deepest recesses of the internet. A fact that Lost Souls know all too well, given it’s their weapon of choice to save the world. When the band dropped a video of themselves writing a breakdown out of the sound of a ping pong ball bouncing off an amp, it not only inspired a few veterans of the genre but also was the spark for their new single My Soldiers Rage.
Lost Souls’ third offering is a delectable buffet of crushing riffs, soaring choruses and that chugging breakdown. Thematically, My Soldiers Rage sees the band expand their scope after concluding their very own Star Wars saga that informed their first two singles.
