UNLEASH THE ARCHERS RELEASE 'THE MATRIARCH' - WATCH IT HERE
8th April 2017



unleash the archers

Unleash The Archers have released their latest video from forthcoming new album, 'The Apex'. The song is 'The Matriarch' and the album, their fourth, marks the tenth anniversary of the Canadian Heavy Metal heroes' formation.

'The Apex' is out on June 2nd via Napalm Records and this is 'The Matriarch'.



Frontlady Brittney Slayes states:

"This track is chapter three in the story, and in it we are introduced to our antagonist, The Matriarch, in all her malevolent glory.

"We call this one our "quick banger" because it's fast, catchy, and fun and hopefully it won't take long to learn the words.

"It is sung from an omniscient point of view, drawing the listener in with tales of The Matriarch's depravity. The best part is the bridge, because the song is so dark, and then it launches into this flowing wraithlike guitar melody that is so memorable. I sing along to it every time and I think the fans will too.

"Absolutely can not wait to play this one live."

We premiered the previous release from 'The Apex' in April and the song has received over a third-of-a-million views on YouTube since. You can catch up on it here.

Ken Sarafin created the picturesque album artwork for 'Apex' and told us:

"This album takes nerves of steel; from its opener, 'Awakening', to the title track that closes the album, the listener will partake in a furious adventure, weaving through elements of the strongest Metal genres of our time.

"You'll be guided by the shimmering heat of sweeping lead guitars, face-melting solos, deafening growls, pummeling bass lines and of course the thrilling hooks of Brittney Slayes' Queen-size voice."
