Dead Icarus, the new band of former Atreyu lead vocalist and Gold-selling artist Alex Varkatzas, aswell as Gabe Mangold of Enterprise Earth and Brandon Zackey , have officially released their debut album ZEALOT today, October 31, via MNRK HEAVY.
Produced and co-written by Mangold, ZEALOT is a precise and pummeling execution of airtight technical riffs, miles of solos, blast beat assault and battery, and screamed, growled, and sung vocals.
"Zealot is the culmination of our unyielding, fanatical belief. We set out to create a dynamic, multi-faceted record that incorporated everything we love about music. It's heavy, it's melodic, it's angry, it's hopeful, it has riffs and hooks but above all it's sincere and comes from purely from our heart and minds. No outside interference. We hope you connect with and enjoy the music as much as we do," says Varkatzas.
"'ZEALOT,' the title track, is our most out of the box song on the record. It definitely toys with anu-metal vibe but with our own unique Dead Icarus spin. It’s about abandoning comprises and following your internal compass NO MATTER THE COST. It's also the final video we shot in the haunted house, a perfect fit for this time of year."
