Dååth Release Re-Recorded Version Of “Subterfuge”

Dååth are streaming a re-recorded version of their song “Subterfuge.” The original version of the track is featured on the group's 2007 album “The Hinderers.” Guitarist Eyal Levi commented:

“Old song, new lineup, new era, new recording.

“Subterfuge” was our first real single, widely released in 2007, and for many fans, it’s the song that put us on the map. However, Sean Z wasn’t part of the band back then; he joined in 2008. Since then, fans haven’t stopped asking us to release the track with his vocals.

We wanted to do something special for those who’ve stuck with us over the years, especially through the hiatus. But simply replacing the vocals on the original, when I’m the only remaining member from that lineup, didn’t feel true to where we are now. The original is a moment in time that can’t be recreated, so why mess with it?

Instead, we re-recorded the song from scratch, using 7-string guitars tuned to drop G (the original is in drop C), got Dave Otero to mix, and created a version that honors the original but hits HARD like a modern track.

We hope you enjoy it!
