Perth groove metal act Bayview Suspect are ready to shake things up and get some heads banging again with the release of their new EP “Survival Or Ruin” due out September 14th through Rockpit Records. Produced by drummer Luke Specter and guitarist Brody Lawrence, the EP was recorded in Perth at Bayview Studios and Superfreak Studios with engineering and mixing duties handled by Daniel Thabet and Johnny Sohl. All tracks were mixed and mastered at Liquid Studios in Merrick, New York.
Together with the announcement is the release of the first single titled “Until Dusk“, the opening track of the new EP which premiered on RTR FM’s metal radio show Critical Mass Wednesday July 4th.
LISTEN TO “UNTIL DUSK”
“Survival Or Ruin” is a brilliant and natural follow up to their debut EP “To Whom It May Concern” which was released in 2016. Where the band started with a heavy groove that takes influences from bands such as Lamb Of God and Whitechapel, this new release sees the band incorporate more melody and a hint of a more European metal sound that shows progression and a willingness to keep things fresh.
“From hook to breakdown, we’re proud of how Survival or Ruin showcases our evolution and song writing progression“, says the band. “This EP is a testament to our need to experiment sonically and allows us to write tunes that’ll stay with you.”
On top of all that, the band are also excited to introduce a new member after the recent departure of 2 members which initially postponed the EP announcement. Bayview Suspect welcome into the fold Kristian Climo who takes over on guitar duties. The band comments: “Already being friends with Kristian and knowing how well he plays, we knew he would be a solid fit into Bayview.”
To celebrate the first single and the introduction of Kristian to the band, Bayview Suspect will be performing live on July 13th at The Boston in Perth supporting local heavyweights Deadspace. RSVP to the event HERE.
Bayview Suspect are a groove metal band from Perth, Australia. While still relatively young forming in 2014, the band have been hitting the live circuit in and around the local Perth metal scene since 2015 consistently that shows a determination and passion for the music they create.
The new EP “Survival Or Ruin” is the follow up release to their debut EP “To Whom It May Concern” which came out in 2016.
