Finnish melodic death metal band Distress of Ruin release new single Terry Bunch, December 30, 2021 Finnish melodic death metal band Distress of Ruin release new single The Finnish melodic death metal band Distress of Ruin brings the year to a close with the release of their new single Searching the Architect, which contemplates the current state of the world. The band continues on a familiar atmospheric road spiced up with powerful elements expressed through both vocals and instruments. “Things are currently better than at any time in history, yet we feel worse than ever before. We have lost ourselves and cannot see each other. This dilemma leads us to blame external abstractions instead of looking in the mirror. These contemplations are reflected in the new music video that strives to uncloak the unspoken truth bare in bright colours. The madness we face is brought to light as the same cycle repeats in an unchanged circle,” said vocalist Lauri Ruotsalainen. “‘Searching the Architect’ acts as a counterpart to the single Solace of the Night, which was released earlier in the autumn. Together, the two singles illustrate the dance of light and shadow in the form we interpret it as artists,” said guitarist and composer Simo Niiranen. After the release of the single, the band will continue recording their debut album and return to perform live on stage in the spring.
