We also do the occasional article now as well dont-ch-ya-know!
Slow and steady this ain’t. Fire and fury is the name of the Friday game today if the name Wage War hadn’t given that away already. After some backstory too? Greedy, but don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. The metalcore quintet have had more names than past members since they kicked things off in 2010. Starting as Empires, the guys from Ocala, Florida spent a brief minute as War Within before eventually settling on Wage War. Maybe because the prior name didn’t feel active enough?
They’re certainly active in person, with five studio albums and all manner of tours in the space of less than a decade already. It’s about as no-frills as it gets, ripping off your roof with a skull-crushing blend of clean and unclean vocals and hurricane-force instruments. Other than four or five cups of coffee, it’s the perfect way to get the day going right.
So, if you’re looking to start your Friday with the sort of energy that gets you concerned looks on the bus, then look no further than our Rock Song of the Week pick. On our usual quarter-monthly celebration day, no less; no, you didn’t have to get us a gift, but we do accept donations in the form of Iron Maiden LPs and pretty much anything drinkable. Which may or may not include blended Iron Maiden LPs. If we consume enough, we might be able to fly a plane too!
If you like what you hear, please consider purchasing via Bandcamp if the option is available as this is usually the best way to support the artist.
