Voice Of The Soul Posts "Pendulum" Play Through Video

Earlier this month Middle Eastern extreme metal band Voice of the Soul released a brand new song entitled "Pendulum," taken from forthcoming debut album "Catacombs," which will be released on March 27th.

Today the band has released a play through video for the same song - check it out below. Vocalist and guitarist Kareem Chehayeb comments:

"This is song was inspired by the mass suicide of Jonestown that took place in 1978, but the lyrical content applies to so many political groups and cults whose leaders exploit the poor and disenfranchised for their own gain.”

The album's artwork was designed by Syrian Dubai-based artist Hamood Hallak of MHD Graphics, and was inspired by the concept of "Pendulum." Kareem elaborates: "While it appears evident that there is a priest/figure leading sheep, the cliff that they are about to walk off is within the temple itself. We don’t specify whether it’s religious or not, because religion isn’t the sole focus. It’s political, it’s social."

The "Catacombs" track listing is:

1. Desolation
2. Perpetual Deception
3. Pendulum
4. Quarantine
5. Cold Rupture
6. The Mist
7. Perdition
8. Defiled
9. Images Subside
