Swedish metal band Avatar has released the new song “Cruel and “Unusual.” Listen here or below.
“It feels self-evident,” the band said about the track. “Violent thoughts channeled through violent riffs, demented thoughts driven by a sick groove. It’s simply a very sexy song.”
Earlier this year, Avatar–which is known to smash the boundaries between band, theater troupe and cinematic masterminds, and the immersive world of Avatar Country, a fantastical land where metal rules supreme–released four new songs. Avatar also previously announced it signed to Thirty Tigers and has launched its own Black Waltz Records imprint.
