Lyric Video For New Song "Across The Dying Plains" Issued By Usurpress

Sweden's doom/crust/prog-infused death act Usurpress has revealed the first new song taken from the forthcoming album "The Regal Tribe," which drops on September 23rd via Agonia Records. The new song is called "Across the Dying Plains" and is available in the form of a lyric video, which can be viewed below.

"The Regal Tribe" is the follow up to "Ordained" (2014) which saw Usurpress leave the deathcrust path for more uncharted territories. During the composing of the new album, the band was plagued by mental disorders/depressions and life threatening illnesses in the member’s immediate families, most notably vocalist/lyricist Stefan Pettersson’s battle with his bone marrow cancer. Therefore "The Regal Tribe" is a heavier and darker, yet more varied, complex and thoughtful effort than their previous albums. This concept album is a tragic story about life versus death, about vanity and the relentless passing of time and is by far Usurpress’ most ambitious output to date.

The album's track listing is as follows:

I: Beneath the Starless Skies
II: The One They Call the Usurpress
III: Across the Dying Plains
IV: The Mortal Tribes
V: The Halls of Extinction
VI: Throwing the Gift Away
VII: Behold the Forsaken
VIII: On a Bed of Straw
IX: The Sin that Is Mine
X: In the Shadow of the New Gods
