Seven years after the release of their previous album, 2016’s Ghost Ship, THEOCRACY are pleased to be able to present their first new song today. Clocking in around 4:30 minutes, infectiously melodic track “Return To Dust” is a more than worthy musical ambassador of the band’s return. A supporting performance music video which was produced by Industrialism Films (https://industrialismfilms.com) can be viewed over on YouTube.
Frontman Matt Smith explains: “‘Return To Dust’ is a prototypical mid-tempo anthem with a classic, massive THEOCRACY chorus. Not really progressive or anything, but infectious with a great riff and energy. The lyrics deal with the inevitability of death, and the choice of who or what we’re living for in the short time we get on this earth. The whole album runs the stylistic gamut you’ve come to expect from THEOCRACY, from the progressive to the thrashy to the pensive to the majestic. So while ‘Return To Dust’ doesn’t represent the entire experience of »Mosaic,« consider it a nice appetizer for the full meal. Enjoy.”
