Today, in cooperation with Dying Victims Productions, we are excited to present the new track 'Mercy Swallower' from highly anticipated sixth album of Italy's BARBARIAN, "Reek Of God".

Truer than true, Italy's BARBARIAN have almost become a subgenre unto themselves during the past 16 years. Although, let there be no confusion: BARBARIAN are HEAVY METAL. A power-trio of not just metal maniacs but actual music maniacs, of all persuasions, BARBARIAN integrate all kinds of crude-yet-refined DNA into their particular palette, almost effortlessly resulting in something that's dieharder than anything around and yet elevating heavy metal to an artform worthy of the fanciest museum. Or, quite the opposite: denim and leather, spikes and chains, swords and sorcery, ugly men and beautiful women, each dawn they die… Either way, to experience BARBARIAN is to imbibe the essence of heavy metal, infused with personality and panache, killing with power and charisma. Posers don't need to leave the hall because they wouldn't be able read the map to it in the first place.

BARBARIAN's characteristic sound – in the simplest of terms, raw speed and epic metal meets even rawer proto-extreme metal – has here been enriched with a vein close to mid '80s death metal and even metal-tinged punk, but with a flow of tempo-changes and riffs to be found only in late '80s / early '90s developments of extreme metal. BARBARIAN are nothing if not studious acolytes; they know their shit, and then make records about it.

BARBARIAN is:

Borys Crossburn - Guitars, Vocals
Blackstuff - Bass
Sledgehammer - Drums
