Turn off the World can be ordered on Amazon.
The band has made the song “Iron Sky”, available for streaming via SoundCloud. In exchange for joining the band’s mailing list, the song can also be downloaded as a free MP3. Check it out HERE.
THE VERY END vocalist Bjoern Goosses on “Iron Sky”: “Every oneof us has experienced some kind of limits, boundaries, fences and wires. Imagine a rusty shell above your head instead of a blue sky. We´re in this together now, all in the same boat, it´s sinking, but that´s no reason to give up. We came in peace, but were born to die.Born under an iron sky.”
A previously released lyric video for “The Black Fix” can be seen at www.theveryend.net/turnofftheworld. The lyric video was created by Carsten Loer for Cyphers X.
Entombed’s LG Petrov contributed as guest vocalist on the death metal-oriented The Black Fix. Commented Bjoern Goosses: “Naturally, being fans of old-school death metal, LG is one of our old-time heroes whom we are proud to present on our new album.”
Like its predecessor, Mercy & Misery, Turn off the World has been produced by Waldemar Sorychta and mastered by Dennis Koehne (Sodom, Exumer).
The album artwork has again been created by Killustrations (Dew-Scented, Nervecell, Hackneyed).
“Precisely executed thrash, straight in your face! If you like Testament you must check out THE VERY END’s Turn off the World. Rocks!”
Angela Gossow – ARCH ENEMY
“THE VERY END will bring you a fresh vision of Death Thrash the way it´s meant to be this day and age.”
