THE GAUNTLET PREMIEREs: NUCLEAR OATH 2nd Single, “TOXIC PLAYGROUND”


Nuclear Oath Press Photo The first single from this band – “Razor Blade Regrets” garnered huge critical acclaim and anticipation from the media and tastemakers.

Now, The Gauntlet is very pleased to release this second single: the title track from the forthcoming full length (June 9, 2017) “Toxic Playground.”

As you listen notice the dirge-like intro but don’t get comfortable with it. Because the bridgeless interrupt is likely to give you a jump scare as it delivers a ferocious surprise of phantasmagoria.

The Band Comments: “This is the title track off the album and also the last song we wrote for the album. We wanted to aim to make the track as hard hitting as possible with it still maintaining a strong structure. Overall, we feel this song properly captures the feel of the entire album, musically and lyrically.”

Without further ado – the world premiere of Medicine Hat, Alberta based Nuclear Oath: TOXIC PLAYGROUND
