Today, we present to you the new video from Ancient Entities, “Empire In Ashes.” the song is from their debut record, Echoes of Annihilation, released back in June via Worm Hole Death Records.
The Milwaukee death metal band focus on ancient civilization, folklore, and mythology in their music with a tech heavy approach. The new video features footage from their show at Milwaukee Metal Fest this year.
The band say about their current lineup:
“We have lots of talented musicians in the band. Alex (Rausa, guitar and the primary songwriter) and Luke (Veranth, bass) learned from the same jazz teacher in the Milwaukee area, Steve Peplin. He’s a very notable name in Milwaukee and the jazz community. On top of that Alex also took some lessons from Paul Ryan (Origin) in his early 20s and also from Cristiano Trionfera (ex-Fleshgod Apocalypse)a couple of times. Knowledge from these musicians helped form Alex’s style of playing especially when it comes to leads. You can hear a lot of what Paul Ryan calls “laser sweeps” in Echoes of Annihilation.”
