DISTANT RELEASE VIDEO FOR BRAND NEW SINGLE “RAT TORTURE” — WATCH
DISTANT‘snew single and video, “Rat Torture,” is a critical reflection on our daily digital lives.
“‘Rat Torture’ is about a suffocating descend into a world where the illusion of freedom is maintained by the glowing screens and empty validation. The song paints humanity as willing prisoners, rats in a cage they worship. Every scroll is a mechanized ritual where identity is performed instead of lived. While there might be still human beneath the glow, it’s too numb to break free,” says the band.

DISTANT have become one of the prominent faces of European Deathcore. Melding together brutal death metal, slam, noise and beatdown with a hyper-dissonant orchestra of impending doom, they’ve come eons since their origins as metalcore obsessed friends in Rotterdam and Bratislava.
