Tampa deathcore machines Tactosa have released their new single, “The Bleeding Machine,” featuring Elysia vocalist Zak Vargas in his return to the genre after over 16 years.
The single marks Vargas’ first time doing vocals in this style since Elysia’s cult classic debut Masochist.
The band will join Dying Fetus for their ‘Make Them Beg For Death’ U.S. Tour, alongside Despised Icon, The Acacia Strain, and Creeping Death.
Vocalist Kyle Weeden says of the new single:
“‘The Bleeding Machine’ is a bleak, nihilistic commentary on the powers that seek to hold down every person’s will. We’re all trapped in this machine together, consuming lies that poison and drain life. Though we’re but mere gears in the overall apparatus, we can fight back with open eyes and a venomous tongue.
“Zak was the perfect vocalist to add to this, both through the raw anger of his voice and the fact that Elysia’s Masochist is filled with sociopolitical commentary. It’s no shock that we’re fond of early deathcore’s blazing aggression; with this song, we hope to continue spewing it across the scene while also providing an insight into a key player in its development. It will be an honor to turn even one fan onto Elysia, who had previously turned us into proponents of deathcore at large.”
