To say that Gatecreeper's new death-metal opus Deserted comes with a large amount of anticipation is a huge understatement. Promises have been fulfilled with the burners "Boiled Over" and "Everlasting" thus far, and with the new video for "From the Ashes," the Arizona demolition crew does not disappoint once again. Fittingly, the clip is shot in the desert, and it features a man in a hallucinatory state wandering the wasteland, while the band rips through their latest single, which tips it's Viking helmet to the likes of Bolt Thrower and Dismember. Soaring leads take the cut from utter bludgeon to subtle melody — striking a fine balance that's a specialty of these modern death-metal masters. Check out the song and video above, then pre-order your copy via Relapse and catch them on the dates below.
