Los Angeles based metal band Art Of Shock release their new song and title track "Dark Angeles" today via Century Media Records. The song is off of the band's forthcoming album, Dark Angeles, which is set for release on March 20th.
Listen to "Dark Angeles" below!
"There's a desperate heartbeat that comes with life in Los Angeles," says Art of Shock guitarist and frontman, Art Geezar. "People come here with big dreams and very little else. It makes them do sty things just to get by. It's a desperate place and even achieving fame and fortune doesn't change that at all."
"Dark Angeles" is the second track released off Art Of Shock's forthcoming full-length album Dark Angeles and follows the recently released debut single "I Cast A Shadow". The album was produced and mixed by Mark Lewis (Megadeth, Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder) and is available for pre-order starting today HERE.
Art Of Shock will be joining Sepultura on their Quadra Tour in support of the forthcoming release. The band will be hitting North America Spring 2020 starting March 18th in San Diego, CA and ending on April 22nd in Ventura, CA, making stops in major markets along the way such as Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Atlanta. Tickets are available for purchase HERE.
Art Of Shock's Century Media debut, Dark Angeles, churns with that intensity of the city of (fallen) angels. AOS' hard-luck and hard-won story begins with their debut at the Whiskey A-Go-Go. Without having a full band or equipment, they book a show, with less than two weeks to pull it off and pull it off they did. The stint landed the band a slew of shows throughout SoCal and a ravenous fan base in the LA metal scene. Art Of Shock's sheer determination then found the band securing a spot on the Vans Warped Tour. Over the years the band have shared the stage with the likes of Trivium, The Cavalera Conspiracy, Sacred Reich, and more. With Dark Angeles set for release next year, the band is ready to show the world what they're made of.
Art Of Shock is Art Geezar (vocals, rhythm guitar), Nicholas Ertel (lead guitar), Adrian Geezar (drums), and Brice Snyder (bass).
