Los Angeles’ ANUBIS are anxious to kick off the new year with a brand-new single and lyric video for the song “Heartless” – an infectiously catchy heavy metal ode from the forthcoming debut. Video created by Scott Rudd (Opeth, Hammerfall) “People who have been seeing us live for a while should be pretty familiar with this song,” states singer Devin Reiche. “This has always been one of my absolute favorite songs of ours, and I can't wait for more people to hear it as it was truly intended to be heard.“ “Heartless” comes from the group’s album, ‘Dark Paradise,’ which is set for a Feb. 24th release on CD, limited colored (300) heartless purple vinyl and digital. Pre-Order now at our webstore, Bandcamp or other options at ‘Dark Paradise’ was produced by Devin Reiche and recording took place at Notes From Underground Studios, with a mix courtesy of Josh Franks (Once Human, Railgun, Highland) and mastering by the famed Mika Jussila (Nightwish, Avantasia, Gamma Ray) in Finland. The album sports a fantastic cover with artwork by Adi Dechristianize. “’Dark Paradise’ marks our inaugural full-length album, and the anticipation is real! We believe this work strongly showcases our distinct blend of lightning-paced thrash riffs and resonant, memorable hooks that you’ve all come to expect from us,” explains bassist Will Buckley. “We’re beyond excited to unleash this adrenaline-charged experience straight to your ears, and soon enough to a venue near you!” ANUBIS have been building quite a reputation for the past five years. The outfit has been doing it the traditional way by playing shows all over Southern California, self-releasing a consistent handful of EPs & singles and promoting themselves organically not only online but actually getting out there and meeting people. Now armed with a powerful new album ANUBIS have teamed up with M-Theory Audio to take things to the next level. Singer Devin Reiche may be a familiar name to fans of thrash and underground metal as he’s also the bassist in Bay Area thrashers Hatchet, but Devin actually lives in L.A. and power metal has always been his first love and calling. Working diligently Devin has developed his vocal abilities and become quite the commanding frontman. Joining Devin in ANUBIS are guitarists Eleazar Llerenas (Delusional Fate) and Justin Escamilla (Tower Guard), bassist Will Buckley and drummer Robin Salazar (both formerly of Hydera), all musicians who’ve been cutting their teeth in the L.A. music scene. ANUBIS has opened for bands like Raven, Rhapsody of Fire, Warbringer, Heathen, Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens, Allegaeon, Hammerfall, Metal Church, Exmortus, Hatriot, and placing at the Wacken Metal Battle US final.
