YESTERDAY'S SAINTS

New Album out Now! “There are so many dimensions to “Generation of Vipers” and that's what makes it such a great album.” -Metal Underground- “Ambitious it is, but I believe they met that mark. It is as bold and brutal as any Thrash and Death Metal, as complex and technical as anything I have heard this year as well, but maintains an accessibility that gives you a complete listening experience.” -Metal Temple- #5 on CMJ Loud Rock Ads Chart, February 6, 2015 Debuted at #20 in the CMJ Loud Rock Chart, February 13, 2015 #15 in Second Week on the CMJ Loud Rock Chart, February 20, 2015 Concept albums are not new territory in metal by any means. But Northern Virginia's YESTERDAY’S SAINTS elevate the notion of conceptual metal to a whole other level, thanks to the rich, extensive storytelling and the pummeling metal in Generation of Vipers. The music is as smart and thought provoking as it is extreme, that's not an easy thing to do. Striking an artful balance is difficult, but YESTERDAY’S SAINTS make it seem easy. YESTERDAY’S SAINTS, who play a death-thrash-power hybrid, has been in existence since summer 2010 and with a self-released EP and some regional touring under their belt. They knew that a full-length concept album was the next step to take. But they did not go about it capriciously. The decision to go with a concept for the 11-track Generation of Vipers was driven by the most important things —the songwriting and careful thought. The album is assembled like an opera, three acts, with an instrumental interlude and outro. It traces the story of Satan, one of the most notorious characters in history, throughout time, from his desire to usurp God's throne to his modern infiltration of mankind to the indication that all mankind are now his descendants. It's a lot to process, but once you absorb that story along with the music, your appreciation will be furthered and deepened, as all senses are satisfied by Generation of Vipers, which targets one's brain and one's body. ** NEW LP OUT NOW**
