Jailhouse Records’ VIOLENT AFFAIR news & tour dates

Via dyingscene.com: VIOLENT AFFAIR announce new project “Anthems Of Defiance In A Dying World”, premiere brand new track “Trapped Like Rats”.

“Since our last release The Cockroach Theory we have been on the road a lot. During that time we have written and recorded a lot of new music for a project we are calling “Anthems Of Defiance In A Dying World” which we want to release in a series of five seven inches that all follow the five stages of grief. Eventually we would want to put them all together with some unreleased and old material alternate recordings of previously released material and other stuff. Volume one of this series “Denial” is ready and should released either late 2014 or early 2015. We have one track that we wanted to share with dying scene to stream for everyone to listen to!”

Sounds pretty rad to us! You can check out the band’s upcoming tour dates and listen to “Trapped Like Rats” below. It kicks ass.
