Swedish dark metal act THE VICE has unleashed its brand new 5 track EP A Great Unrest via Noble Demon. To celebrate the release in a fitting manner, the band has released a music video for the track "From The Barricades".

THE VICE about the song:
"Sometimes rock 'n' roll shouldn't be more complicated than one middle finger and zero f*cks to give. And that's what "From The Barricades" is all about.It's punk song cast in our blackened mold of ferocious rock and die-hard metal, accelerating all the way until the very end. Nothing more, nothing less, but one hell of a ride.."

Following the success of their latest full-length album, Dead Canary Run (2024, Noble Demon), THE VICE embarked on an exciting journey to create a series of EPs. The addition of Joel Öhman, a long-time collaborator, has transformed the band into a finely-tuned quartet, enriching their sound with fresh perspectives and innovative approaches.

The first offering from this new chapter, A Great Unrest, has this growth on full display, amplifying every inch of the foundation made of blackened metal, ambient pop and unbridled rock'n'roll.

The five tracks - three new ones, a cover of "1 Sun" by Miley Cyrus and a rearranged version of "Welcome The Storm" from the latest album - were recorded in the fall of 2024 at Studio Underjord (Skraeckoedlan, Magna Carta Cartel, Haystack among others) in rural Sweden.

Fresh off of writing and recording a full album, this EP was the perfect way to musically break the "limitations" that can come when working to create a really unified piece of art.

And while it wasn't exactly Fantomas-levels of diverse tracks, sound engineer and owner of the studio, Joona Hassinen really pulled his 'A' game giving it a coherent sound. A Great Unrest sounds a bit lighter, yet more harsh than Dead Canary Run with an electrified, distorted tension running throughout.

"A Great Unrest" is out now on Noble Demon and available for purchase at THIS LOCATION
