Veteran Midwest metallists Conquest returned with their latest album, ‘Paradox,’ on April 19th, and have just unleashed their latest single and video from it, “Devils Creed.” Additionally, the band has announced several upcoming performances: October 26th at This N That in Vandalia Illinois, December 7th at Pops Country Club in Sauget, Illinois, and December 21st at Diamond Music Hall in St Peters, Missouri.
“Very cool track about always being haunted in the mine as someone running from the devil, with a strong aggressive rhythm section breakdown,” says the band about their latest single/video. “The opening track on the ‘Paradox’ record, it has super strong drums and great guitar leads, aggressive bass playing and strong aggressive vocals. Old school meets modern metal!”
‘Paradox’ is available as two vinyl records or a single CD (plus available on all streaming services), the album continues in the same direction as their previous studio offerings, as evidenced by such standout tracks as “Walking Dead” and “The Writings on the Wall” (both of which have already been issued as music videos), as well as a cover of the Rainbow classic, “Man on the Silver Mountain.”

Comprised of Brumley, Mike Crook: Vocals and Guitar, Rob Boyer: Vocals and Bass, and Lee Skyles: Vocals and Drums, ‘Paradox’ was also produced and engineered by Derrick (and mixed by Adam Long), the band’s latest album is getting rave reviews via metal media, including the Rock You Show site saying “I have to give this one 9.5 out of 10 “Flaming Fist”. You nearly get 2 albums worth of great quality music, including a stellar cover of Rainbow’s “Man on the Silver Mountain”. I thank them personally for keeping the Metal torch lit in these times of darkness”.
Having already shard concert stages with the likes of Slayer, Rob Halford, Testament, Iron Maiden, and Yngwie Malmsteen, the band can certainly deliver the goods on stage. And fans will get a chance to experience Conquest live on stage on the upcoming October 26th, December 7th, and December 21stperformances.
