Near Tears shares debut EP ‘Get with the Program’ – premiering now with Atwood Magazine

On her debut EP Get with the Program Near Tears shares, “This is a really nostalgic-sounding EP about modern anxieties. And the title track is probably one of the most depressing songs I’ve written – I mean, in it I legitimately say I don’t wanna grow old in this world anymore! But at the end of the day I am choosing to grow old in this world (as much as it’s within my control to do, anyway) and in the meantime I’m using music to deal with the stickier feelings that arise from making that choice.”

HATE Unleashes “Exiles Of Pantheon” Video; Rugia Full-Length From Long-Running Blackened Death Metal Unit Out Now On Metal Blade Records!

The “Exiles Of Pantheon” video was created in collaboration with 9liter Filmy film agency. Comments vocalist/guitarist ATF Sinner, “We’re extremely

proud to present this picture for one of the most brutal and vicious tracks on Rugia. The song is about an old faith being reborn through an unholy, blood-soaked ritual. There are references to archaic beliefs on the island of Rugia – the last bastion of western Slavic paganism. Making this video was one hell of a challenge, because we were shooting throughout the night in extreme weather conditions. In the end, I think we got a picture that fits perfectly with the music. Watching it, you can almost feel freezing cold rain slashing at your face. It’s no doubt our best video thus far.”
