NEW PROJECT FEATURES FORMER ATREYU VOCALIST ALEX VARKATZAS
ARTIST RELEASES AD INFERNUM EP TODAY
Dead Icarus, the new project of former Atreyu lead vocalist and Gold-selling artist Alex Varkatzas, have shared a fourth single in the form of “Ad Infernum.”
Watch the video, directed by Monte Legaspi, here.
“Everyone loves the romanticized cliche of ‘dying for what they believe in,” says Varkatzas. “But death is the end of all things. Sometimes living with the consequences of one’s actions can be more severe than death itself. Sometimes, simply persevering, in the face of constant adversity, is the victory. ‘Ad Infernum’ asks, ‘Are you ready to live through what you believe in?’”
Today, Dead Icarus are also digitally releasing the Ad Infernum EP. Get it here. It includes the four previously issues tracks and a killer Pantera cover.
AD INFERNUM EP TRACK LISTING:
“Sellout”
“The Vultures Circle”
“So I Set Myself on Fire”
“Ad Infernum”
“Yesterday Don’t Mean Shit” (Pantera cover)
