Slasherwave outfit GOST right now unveils “Widow Track,” the newest single from the venture’s impending new full-length, Prophecy, set for launch on March eighth by way of Steel Blade Data.
GOST exists in the dead of night crack between black steel and probably the most shadowy finish of digital music. Because the launch of the Radio Macabre EP in the beginning of 2013, and the remorseless digital nightmare of their Cranium debut album six months later, Texas-based multi-instrumentalist, producer, and main-brain James Lollar has grow to be an more and more singular power in music. Much more aggressive and sinister than the synthwave he’s typically grouped with, GOST is a harsh and distinctive digital nightmare that takes the listener proper into the center of the abyss.
Now GOST returns with their sixth album, Prophecy. Unquestionably their most exhilarating and harmful sounding work to this point, Prophecy is a report that completely displays the horror and grim anxieties of a world beset with non secular and political overreach, and progress, “being rolled again to the fucking Fifties.”
“It’s about an imaginative fall of the Western civilization, the biblical finish of the world – the rise of Devil and Armageddon,” says Lollar. “In America, there’s been a giant rise of scared, reactive Christianity once more, and virtually like a re-emergence of the Satanic Panic. So it felt like an acceptable time to convey Devil again into issues.”
Upfront of the discharge of Prophecy, GOST right now unleashes “Widow Track” with an accompanying lyric video. “‘Widow Track’ could be very private to me on a couple of ranges,” elaborates Lollar. “The title tributes an outdated shut pal who all of the sudden died years in the past. The lyrical content material is a direct response to the world of chaos we’re all at present having to navigate. Sonically, I needed to merge my new wave and black steel influences. I pushed my vocal capability on ‘Widow Track,’ going a lot decrease and better than I’ve beforehand tried as GOST. The outcome rests someplace between Mayhem and Skinny Pet.“

Prophecy was recorded by Lollar alone in Texas throughout a burst of creativity on the finish of 2022. Following the experimentation and extra melodic touches of 2019′s Valediction, Lollar says the report acts as one thing of a return to older roots, to recapture the spirit of GOST.
