Death Ray Vision Launch New Song!

Current members of Killswitch Engage and Shadows Fall and ex members of Overcast and Cannae have combined forces in the project DEATH RAY VISION. These veterans of the Boston metal scene play a raw brand of metallic hardcore that recaptures the energy of their old school hardcore roots infused with all they have learned and experienced as musicians over the past decade. The songs are short blasts of energy and intensity built on thrash metal rhythms and chugging guitar riffs. 

The debut 5 song EP “Get Lost Or Get Dead" will be released May 14, 2013 on Bullet Tooth in 7” Vinyl, Digipack CD, and digital download formats. The first song “Shattered Frames” can be streamed at YouTube! The track listing is:
