As they keep on drawing influences from the challenges and pressure we all deal with, Swedish headbangers Pressure dropped the second single off their upcoming EP Demon Warrior. Telling a story from a whole different perspective, Demon Warrior speaks from the demon’s POV, or as Pressure stated
Have you ever wanted to march out to war in the middle of a demonic horde? Do you find comfort in the darkness and does the fire help you to keep you warm and strong? Well, then just grab whatever weapon you have and follow us out to battle. Demon Warrior is the marching song of any warrior that wants to join the horde. Here we have no prejudices, no one is judging, and everyone is welcome. Come join the horde and march with us with this anthem
Pressure takes us on a heavy, folky journey in Demon Warrior. It has a powerful melodic core cleverly mixed with layers of heavy riffs, fast-pounding drums, and deep bass, all topped by a solid vocal melody with a catchy epic delivery that completes the song’s theatricals. The guitar work is wild and roaring which matches the title, it fuels the song’s dynamics and dramatic shifts as it progresses gaining momentum as our story moves forward. Demon Warrior has a big multi-layered structure that was neatly handled by tight arrangements, as you can hear every element taking its time and space to shine and get noticed all while keeping the song’s changing dynamics going and the listeners hooked.
Demon Warrior shows us a bit more of what Pressure are offering in their upcoming EP, it seems that these guys are taking more bold and steady steps towards bigger and more theatrical sound which shows that they are evolving and moving forward. Looking forward to more from Pressure, keep on rocking. Cheers!
