Extol Premiere New Single & Visualizer "The One And The Many" From Upcoming New Comeback Album "Aura Of Decay"

Extol have premiered their brand new single “The One And The Many”. The track serves as both the lead single and opening cut from the metal band’s first new studio album since 2013, “Aura Of Decay”. Solid State Records have scheduled the comeback effort for a November 06th release.

A press release offered the following on the new album:

‘Musically, Extol‘ continue their fearless tradition of charting unknown waters while retaining the distinct signature that has defined the band for decades. The songwriting, complex arrangements, and unmistakable sonic language remain firmly anchored in the adventurous spirit fans have come to expect. Furthermore, in a nod that will delight longtime supporters, echoes of the raw and black metal-tinged atmospheres reminiscent of their seminal album ‘Burial‘ surface throughout the album.’

“The One And The Many” is said to explore modern tribalism and its effects on society. Guitarist Christer Espevoll explained:

“We are living in an era where truth feels relative, yet tribal dogmas seem to be strengthening. We wanted the song to mirror that confusion. It is an invitation to look beneath the surface noise of the internet and reflect on how sanctimonious religious and political practices are fed and kept alive by ideology.”
