As I Lay Dying - Deliver New Single
As I Lay Dying put out a brand new single/video, called "Whitewashed Tomb". The latter will be part of the band's oncoming long player Through Storms Ahead, due out November 15 via Napalm Records. The accompanying music video was directed by Tom Flynn & Mike Watts.
Frontman Tim Lambesis says about the track and video:
"Whitewashed Tomb" represents a balance between the melody and aggression that AILD is known for with an interesting modern twist from the way that Phil and Hiram produced it. When Phil wrote the original demo, I could instantly appreciate the classic melodic-metal influences in the guitar melodies contrasted with an underlying darker theme. So, lyrically it seemed fitting for me to focus on the metaphor of a whitewashed tomb. It is something clean and beautiful at a first glance until the darker hidden side is revealed. I also love what Ryan Neff added to solidify that sense of contrast vocally, as well."
