Perjalanan slaughter to prevail band

History

Slaughter to Prevail was formed in 2014 by Jack Simmons, a UK-based guitarist, Alex Shikolai, a Russian vocalist, and Anton Poddyachy, a Russian drummer. [1] They released their first EP, Chapters of Misery, in 2015 and the official videos for the songs Hell (Ад) and Misery (Страдание) hit millions of views on YouTube . Due to their success, they signed to Sumerian Records , an American record label, in 2016 [2] and re-released Chapters of Misery with a new song (and video), When the Vultures Circle, as their debut release under the label. [3] In May 2016, it was announced that Slaughter to Prevail would be joining bands such as Cannibal Corpse for

Summer Slaughter 2016 . [4]

Slaughter to Prevail released their first full-length album, Misery Sermon, in 2017. Vocalist Alex Shikolai mentioned that the album was inspired by the hate and misery seen in everyday life, especially due to the idea that metal shows in Russia are sometimes cancelled due to religious reasons. [5]

Slaughter to Prevail was once again invited to perform at Summer Slaughter 2017 alongside bands such as The Black Dahlia Murder and

Dying Fetus but was ultimately unable to make the tour due to visa issues. [6] Slaughter to Prevail was also invited to join Suicide Silence on their 10th anniversary tour of their album

The Cleansing and was set to perform in America and Canada in November and December 2017. [7] However, the band once again encountered visa issues due to the

American visa freeze for Russians . [8]

Style

Slaughter to Prevail is noted for their heavy and dark-themed songs, with a major focus on vocalist Shikolai's deep guttural vocals. [9] Shikolai has mentioned that the band has been influenced by other prominent deathcore bands such as Suicide Silence , Bring Me the Horizon , and Carnifex . [10] The band also frequently performs with full-face masks.

Since most of the bands members are Russian, the majority of the songs are sung in

Russian but also occasionally feature English lyrics. The band also includes members from the USA and the UK.
