International deathgrind band Lock Up have released a music video for the track \u2018Hell Will Plague The Ruins\u2019. Created by Chariot of Black Moth, the clip can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the song, vocalist Tomas Lindberg said: \u201cWhen I heard the track, I just wanted the lyrics to reflect upon the same kind of feeling. It is a ripper of a song, total face melt death metal grind. And I just wanted a very all out attack lyrically as well. It is basically a doomsday song, very punky in attitude, almost like a Discharge lyric, but then steeped in a more death metal vocabulary to make it even more brutal and hellish. It is about the end of the world, and the journey there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lock Up issue fifth full-length studio album The Dregs Of Hades<\/em> on November 26th, 2021 through Listenable Records.<\/p>\n

The Dregs Of Hades<\/em> marks the first Lock Up album to feature drummer Adam Jarvis (Misery Index \/ Pig Destroyer), who replaced<\/a> founding member Nick Barker in May 2020. The outing also sees the return of former vocalist Tomas \u201cTompa\u201d Lindberg (At The Gates \/ The Lurking Fear).<\/p>\n

With the band members being spread across the globe, Lock Up\u2019s new album was recorded remotely due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Explaining the recording process, singer Kevin Sharp said: \u201cBasically Anton [Reisenegger, guitar] loaded a dropbox of very rough arrangements. Adam would go in with his drum program write his parts and solidify the arrangements, then passing them to me and Tompa. <\/p>\n

\u201cAs for Shane\u2019s [Embury, bass] songs. He is specific and wrote all parts. Once Adam learned his parts and Shane\u2019s songs, he went in and nailed it in a handful of takes… He\u2019s that good.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the vocals, I wrote and tracked some things and sent them to Tompa. He did the same, until we had a complete record. Both of us tracked and re-tracked the songs in our own phrasing, adding an interesting contrast in style and tone.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really don\u2019t think it would have been possible without the shear volume of recording experience we have collectively. That said, I believe we would also agree the nature of the way the recording happened, in our darkest of times, makes this somewhat special for all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Dregs Of Hade<\/em>s was mixed and mastered by Sebasti\u00e1n Puente at AudioCustom in Santiago, Chile.<\/p>\n

Cover artwork was designed by Stefan Todorovi\u0107.<\/p>\n
