Montreal, Canada’s The Occult are pleased to present their third single Watch You Die, off their upcoming self-titled debut album slated for a release next month. The single is the opening track on the album and a great introduction to a record full of catchy punk riffs, bouncy rock n’ roll energy, gritty yet melodic vocals, and lyrical themes ranging from dark and macabre, to critical and political all incorporating influences from 80s and 90s thrash to Seattle grunge.
Vocalist/songwriter Eric Savanis shares his thoughts on the single, the upcoming video and the album: “Lyrically, the single is pretty self-explanatory if you ask me. Musically, it’s very dynamic and certainly a favourite to play live. As for the rest of the album, while the songs might seem tongue and cheek at times, there’s magick permeating everywhere on the record. As a student of Western Hermeticism, it’s no coincidence that the band is called The Occult. Raf, our guitarist, worked his ass off on the upcoming video which is gonna blow people’s minds.”
The music video for Watch You Die can be seen and heard below.
The self-titled album is out August 19, 2022. Pre-save https://linktr.ee/officialTheOccultband
