Pop Evil Unleash New Single ‘Trenches’ Off Upcoming Album ‘Onyx’

eOne Pop Evil are literally just wrapping up their new album, but the band is so excited about the disc that they’ve already decided to share some new music. The group just took to their Facebook page to debut the new single ‘Trenches,’ which can also be heard in the player below. The hard-driving track is filled with powerful drumming, some chugging guitar riffs and frontman Leigh Kakaty’s in-your-face belting about coming out of the trenches and being ready for a fight. The vocalist says about the song, “It’s about our battles. Not focusing on the things we can’t control, if we really want to be a band that stands the test of time we have to write the music that connects. We have to dig our way out of the trenches.” Pop Evil also revealed that the title of their forthcoming album will be ‘Onyx.’ The disc is due May 14 and the band is ready to carry the flag for rock ‘n’ roll again. They state, “It’s a matter of time before rock ‘n’ roll is in the forefront again and we want to be part of that.” ‘Onyx’ follows 2011′s ‘War of Angels’ album, which featured the singles ‘Last Man Standing,’ ‘Save the World,’ ‘Monster You Made’ and ‘Boss’s Daughter.’ Take a listen to the ‘Trenches’ single below and if you like what you hear, it’s available for purchase on iTunes here .

Pop Evil Share Life on the Road in ‘Purple’ Video

Vevo It’s been a great year for Pop Evil , who have traveled the world promoting their ‘War of Angels’ album, and with the video for their new single ‘Purple,’ they now have a document to show some of the great times they’ve had. The clip serves as a salute to life on the road for Pop Evil, with the camera taking you behind the scenes when the guys are having fun and getting the viewer right up onstage to see the enjoyment that not only the band, but their fans are getting out of the shows. The song lends itself well to soundtrack the clip, with the lyric “ It only hurts when it’s over ” serving a different meaning here as it can be interpreted that the band realize their time on the road with fans will eventually have to stop for a new record. But their faithful followers don’t have anything to worry about just yet, as they expect more shows in store for 2013. Pop Evil spent the summer on the Trespass America tour, and have recently been sharing stages with Black Label Society in Canada. Fans can catch the band Nov. 27 joining the stellar lineup for ShipRocked 2012 , featuring Godsmack , Korn , Five Finger Death Punch , Sevendust , P.O.D. and more. Singer Leigh Kakaty says of the rock cruise, “We are very excited to be a part of this heavyweight lineup of bands this year on ShipRocked. It’s going to be the mother of all cruises. Pop Evil is ready to set sail.” Watch Pop Evil’s ‘Purple’ Video [button href=”http://loudwire.com/pop-evil-joined-by-mick-mars-and-playboy-playmate-for-bosss-daughter-music-video/” title=”Next: Watch Pop Evil’s ‘Boss’ Daughter’ Video” align=”center”]
