Kansas City’s ORPHANS OF DOOM has revealed a new lyric video for the song “Rust,” taken from the recently released sophomore album, II.
“’Rust’ is about a car long forgotten and awaiting its fate,” says guitarist/vocalist Jeremy Isaacson. “Only to be found and brought back from near death as a demolition car to be finally and completely destroyed.”
Formed in the summer of 2016 by Sedey, Jeremy Isaacson (guitar) and Gregory Koelling (drums), the trio pursued a singular goal of creating genre-defying heavy music. Melding influences of prog, heavy metal, and sludge, ORPHANS OF DOOM set out to create music that first and foremost satisfied their own tastes, with the intent of drawing equally discerning minds into the fold. Their 2018 debut, Strange Worlds/Fierce Gods, offered a glimpse into ORPHANS OF DOOM’s amalgam of riffs, melodies and rhythms and was met with high praise.
With time came progression, and when the band began the writing process for their sophomore album, it was clear that the new direction was faster, heavier and couldn’t be done with just three members. In 2019, ORPHANS OF DOOM welcomed longtime producer and engineer Justin Mantooth (Sharp Weapons, Godmaker, Somnuri, Bummer, Hyborian) into the fold, offering opportunity for even more versatility and heaviness.
