Sanaga Unleashes Debut Single "The Godslayer's Oath"

Rising death metal force Sanaga has officially released their debut single, "The Godslayer’s Oath" (mixed and mastered by Jeff Dagenais of Kataklysm), marking the band’s first step onto the Canadian metal scene. Formed in the fall of 2026, Sanaga brings together long-time friends and seasoned musicians with a shared passion for creating fast, melodic, aggressive, and evocative metal inspired by Death, Slayer, Amon Amarth, and Dark Tranquillity.

"The Godslayer’s Oath" was the natural choice for Sanaga’s debut. As the first song the band fully rehearsed together, it quickly became their most polished and complete track. Musically, it showcases the full spectrum of Sanaga’s sound, death metal fused with thrash energy and sharpened by touches of black metal.

Lyrically, the single introduces listeners to the band’s myth-driven universe. The song tells the story of a void-born entity created for one purpose: to slay gods and destroy their realms. Whether interpreted as an anti-religious statement or simply a brutal fantasy narrative, the track sets the tone for Sanaga’s bold, storytelling-focused approach.
