Grethor Reveal "The Last Manifesto"

Virginia based blackened death metal band Grethor have revealed "The Last Manifesto". The track is taken from their upcoming album "Damnatio Memoriae".

The band commented: "The Last Manifesto was spurred by the hatred and loss of life caused by white supremacists in Charlottesville, Virginia this past August. It is intolerance for the intolerant, a doctrine against white nationalism. We will no longer bear those who want to preserve a false sense of genetic entitlement, nor the monuments and glorifications of such. Fuck the Nazis, fuck the alt-right."
