Left Behind have released new video for Eternity Of Empty. The song, which originally premiered on Decibel, is off their highly anticipated third full-length album, No One Goes To Heaven, released today on 15th November, 2019 via Pure Noise Records.
On the track, vocalist Zach Hatfield shares, “I wrote ‘Eternity of Empty’ about growing up in church, being scared because I don’t understand what’s going on. It’s a scary place as a kid watching weird old men you don’t know telling you you’re going to Hell forever if you don’t follow the teachings they’re giving you. Left me with a lot of thoughts growing up like, ‘Well what if this is all real and I’m just a shitty person and not good enough for Heaven?’ There’s a sign on the side of the road on the way to my dad’s house that just says ‘GOD LOVES YOU, PLEASE DON’T GO TO HELL.’ Which always just made me feel so weird growing up. None of that resonates with me. It’s a bizarre thing looking back on it and while it can be good for some people, I never had a good experience with it.”
Tapping into the darker side of the hardcore/metalcore stratum, Left Behind deliver a sludgy mix of breakdowns and staccato guitar riffage that invokes names likes Harms Way, Crowbar, and Black Breath. The band debuted in 2013 with the EP Death, Take Me, followed by the release of the full-length Seeing Hell in 2016, and Blessed by the Burn in 2017. Just last year, the band signed to Pure Noise Records, and has been on the rise ever since.
