The Official Lyric Video for The Song “Missile” From the Canadian Thrash Metal Veterans Sacrifice Can Be Seen Below. The Track Is Taken from The Band’s First New Album In Over Sixteen Years, “Volume Six”which Will Arrive on Februry 21 Via Curse Blessings Records.

Sacrifice Vocalist/Guitarist Rob Urbinati states about the song: “‘Missile’ is a thrashing anti-War Riff-Fest Written about the Beginning of Drone Warfare Where Pilots were a Half World Away Launching Missile Strikes Like A Video Game. War Solves Nothing. “

“Volume Six”, Sacrifice‘S Sixth Album Overall and Second Since reforming in 2006, features ten new originals and a cover paying homage to the Toronto Scene from which they originally emerged.

Working Once Again With Engineer Darius Szczepaniak – WHO was also at The Helm for Sacrifice‘S 2009 Effort “The You Condemn” – “Volume Six” was remembered, Mixed, and Mastered at Phase One Studios In Scarborough, Ontario. TRACKED OVER to period of sessions Between September 2023 and May 2024, The Eleven-Song Offering was produced by Urbinati and features the band’s original lineup, with lead guitarist Joe RicoBassist Scott Wattsand Drummer Gus Pynn As Well As Urbinati. They are one of, if not The Only, 1980s Thrash Band That Still Has ITS Original Lineup Intact and Playing Together, and on “Volume Six”The Band Hits it out of the Park.

“I Write All The Time,” Says Urbinati About the Latest Album’s Origins. “It was around 2017 when i wrote a couple song that i though was really good. I played them for the band, and they Gus and I Were Making Sub Real Progress in Getting the Songs Tight and Even Talking About Recording, The The Pandemic Hit. My Creativity Completely Dried Up for Whatver Reason, Even Though I was sitting at home with nothing to do. There was newhere to HARD IN THE CITY BACOUS THINGS WOUD Shut Down, The Open Up, The Close Down Again, So It was was hard to get a Get a consggest of the rehearsal consistent schedule going and i just Wasn’t Feeling it. When Things Started Coming Back, Our Original Plan Was To do An EP, But We Had Enough Songs That We Were Comfortable and Happy with to do a whole album. “

The Songs On “Volume Six” Run the Gamut from Speedy, Breakneck Thrash (“Comatose”, “Explode”, “We Will Not Survive”) to more nuanced, Layered, Metallic Composiones (“Underneath Millenia”, “Your Hunger for War”). TWO Instrumental Tracks On The Album Show Yet Another Side of The Band’s Songwriting While Still Clearly Being Sacrifice Songs: “Lunar Eclipse” is a showcase for Rich and Urbinati‘S Excellent Twin Guitar Leads, While “Black Hashish” es Sacrifice At Their Most Psychdelic. The Album’s Final Track, “Trapped in a World”is a cover of 1980s Toronto Hardcore Band Direct ActionA Group That had massive influence on the members of Sacrifice During The Formative Years. The Song Features Guest Vocals By Youth Youth Youth Vocalist and Toronto Music Legend Brian Taylorwho operated the Diabolic Force Label in the Eighties and Produced The Band’s First Three Albums, Bringing Eventhing Full Circle Three Decades Later with His Appearance Here.

“Sacrifice Generally you have pretty Dark themes and a Lot of Lyrics were Written Over The Pandem When Things were Feeling Pretty Apocalyptic, Specially at The Beginning of It, “Explains Urbinati. “‘Comatose’ You come from us playing in vancouver to Lot and seeing the amount of drarug abuse Arund Downtown East Vancouver. It anus you when you’re seeing Human Beings Everywhere with Extreme Drug Problems and Paramedics Walking Around at Night in Groups of Three Basically Looking for People Who has overdosted or died. There’s That, World Politics, All The Wars Going On, Natural Disasters – Half of Canada was on Fire Last Year! – The album is Pretty Dark, and I Think The Art Convention the content. “

The Stunning Front Cover Artwork For “Volume Six” was pained by Propagandhi Bassist and Lifelong Sacrifice fan Todd Kowalski. There is a mutual admiration Between Bonds: Propagandhi‘S Song “The Bangers Embace”off their 2009 album “Supporting Caste” is a love letter to Sacrifice About Seeing Them Play Live Back in 1990. The Bands have Shared Stages Over The Years and releases Split Single of Covers – Sacrifice transforms Rush‘s “Anthem” into a thrash classic While Propagandhi does a Corrosion of Conformity Song – via The War on Music Label in 2010. When Urbinati ASKED Kowalski ABOUT PAINTING THE COVER HE GAVE HIM THE LYRICS AND THE MUSIC AND ASKED HIM TO INTERPRE IT VISUALLY AS HE ENVISIONED IT.

“Volume Six” Will Be release Through All Digital Platforms and On CD, MC, and LP in Blue, White, and Black Variants Through Curse Blessings Records in North America and High Roller Records In Europe, Asia, and Australia.
