ACOLYTE’s new video single ‘RESENTMENT’ is out now and is the latest instalment in Acolyte’s conceptual journey.
Channelling the psychedelic soul and power of 70’s rock icons Janis Joplin and Blondie merged with Deep Purple and RUSH’s musical spirit with a modern prog metal twist. Acolyte successfully collides the past and the future to create a sound both fresh and nostalgic in nature.
Morgan-Leigh has expressed the importance of this song within the album concept and opens up to speak more about the track’s underlying connotations.
“Lyrically, I found myself inspired by the way my mind could hold on to even the smallest of passing comments and gestures, negative and positive, letting them become all-encompassing, compartmentalised over and over, ever-evolving in what felt like an eternity, until they no longer resembled their original context or form.
As we recorded the ENTROPY record, I was right in the midst of battling a nasty case of Chronic Fatigue (CFS). I would attend the studio for a full day to lay down vocals and then come home and pass out for often days at a time. The pattern can be quite isolating and lonely. When you are that alone for such an extended period of time, the mind can work in incredible ways, both positively and negatively.”
Acolyte’s new album ‘Entropy’ will be released on May 14th 2021
