Woking 5 piece EMPLOYED TO SERVE have today released ‘Harsh Truth (Relived)’, a remixed version of an older release but now featuring guest vocals from Andrew Dijorio from the band Stray From The Path.
From vocalist Justine Jones – “Harsh Truth (Relived) is a reminder that past demons have a habit of rearing their ugly heads again, and that doesn’t spell defeat. It means you stare back at them with more determination than ever before. This song is a reworking of the album track Harsh Truth that sees the song take a more primitive and visceral shape. The track also features a guest spot from our friend Drew DiJorio (Stray From The Path) which takes the song to a whole other level. As soon as the guest spot started to take shape when we were reworking the track, we knew instantly Drew was the person for the job. The way he articulates his words with such venom fits perfectly with the groove whilst adding even more aggression to the tracks already punishing presence.”
The band head off on their ‘Eternal Forward Motion’ UK and European headline tour through March 2020 with some stellar supports. Palm Reader, Giver and Cruelty will join them across various shows.
