As a final teaser before the release of their anticipated sixth album, metal juggernauts DEMON HUNTER are premiering "Wake," yet another standout track from the forthcoming True Defiance, available in stores and online tomorrow, April 10th, on Solid State Records. "'Wake' is another song that explores all the best elements of the band," explains mastermind Ryan Clark. "It's very riff heavy, vocally melodic, extremely aggressive, grooving, and features some of the best drumming on the record. This song takes what some might consider the standard DEMON HUNTER vocal structure and flips it- the verses are melodic singing, and the screaming takes place in the chorus. I think those tweaks in the structure make it a unique DH song." "Lyrically, it's about a person's fear of the unknown... or the coming to terms with one's mortality and spiritual life... digging deeper that a daily surface existence or 'waking' out of the ritualistic/mundane day-to-day."
