"Blood And Teeth", the new single from the American hard rock trio, Inside The Trojan Horse, opens with an intimate vocal revealing a dark connection with an unseen force, "When the hammer strikes the needle, we go down, yes we do." The hypnotic pulse creeps and crawls, taunting the vocal to reveal clues to the crime, eventually building into a frenzy of explosive howling redemption, "You'll never break me of my will, so don't even waste your time."
Listen to "Blood And Teeth" here, and watch the official video below:
NoOne and NoThing first unlocked their creative chemistry as members of the Island Def-jam group Loser, alongside current Motley Crüe guitarist John 5. Following the band's demise, the pair began honing their writing and recording skills, amassing a decades-long music catalog.
While on tour with Gemini Syndrome, NoThing crossed paths with NoBody as he and NoOne sowed the early seeds of Inside The Trojan Horse. The pair eventually reached out to the drummer to round out this powerhouse tripod.
Under the influence of everyone from Soundgarden and Audioslave to Tool and the Deftones, plus more modern influences like Underoath, Periphery, and Tesseract, the trio cultivated a signature sound and aesthetic unlike any other. The incendiary "Burn" is the trio's first song and single, followed by "Savior", a barrage of rapid riffing, drums, and powerful vocals culminating in a scorching refrain. The band's third single, "How They Run", is a powerful dystopian tale of loss and hope. "Stay Alive", the fourth instalment from ITTH hits like a ton of bricks crushing everything in its path revealing the last man standing.
More from Inside The Trojan Horse coming soon.
