Blackened death thrashers Necropanther have unveiled a video for the track “Into Danger” from their album Betrayal, which is out now. Betrayal intertwines the movie The Warriors with the Greek story of Anabasis by Xenophon which The Warriors is based upon.
“Into Danger” picks up with Cyrus, the Grammercy Riffs leader, shot and killed by Luther, the crazed leader of the Rogues gang. You know the rest of the story.
Guitarist Joe Johnson states:
“The tales are parallel: A small group is betrayed and isolated in dangerous enemy territory and must fight their way back home.”
Drummer Haakon Sjogren adds:
“Much like The Warriors, we explored new territory on this album and often found ourselves in unfamiliar places but working together to make it ‘home.’ Also, it’s just a great, fun movie with wisdom that’s still relevant in today’s world.”
Necropanther hail from Denver, Colorado. All band members are composers and collaboratively create their albums. Since 2014, they have amassed quite the discography of bone-snapping metal.
