We at Dying Scene are thrilled to bring you another exclusive premiere, this time from St. Louis melodic-hardcore outfit The Disappeared. “Pathogen” comes as the second single off of the band’s 4-song EP titled Shiver.
Shiver serves as the band’s 7th release and their “most diverse record to date, drawing influence from 90’s/00’s mood heavy kings Helmet, Failure and Deftones, while keeping modern melodic hardcore elements similar to Hopesfall and Title Fight alive.” Done in complete DIY fashion, engineering and mastering were spearheaded by drummer Gabe Usury at Encapsulated Studios, singer Brad Jokerst handled all album artwork, and, most importantly, the 12″ vinyl pressing was completely band-funded.
“Pathogen” officially hits streaming everywhere February 9, but in the meantime check it out below, along with their official lyric video. Shiver is set to release March 8 (but keep your eyes glued to the site for another possible early premiere!), which includes a closing cover of Kid Dynamite’s “News at 11′, a track we are particularly excited for here at DSHQ.
