In celebration of their upcoming Faces of Death UK Tour, Pittsburgh deathcore unit SIGNS OF THE SWARM have dropped a live music video for bouncy crowd favourite ‘Borrowed Time.’ The video compiles footage from the tour cycle for last year’s landmark fifth LP, Amongst the Low & Empty, edited together by Dylan Gould.

“Originally, we were going to make a live video for ‘Pray for Death'”, reveals drummer BobbyCrow, “But after seeing how wild everyone gets when we tell them to jump with us to ‘Borrowed Time’, we knew it had to be this one. We had our friend Dylan come out to our sold-out Toronto headliner last November to film more footage of the song to allow us to really nail the vibe, alongside some sick festival shots and more from our raging UK headliner last summer. We think it captures the vibe of our show well and is a good preview for those considering hitting Faces of Death. Hope to bounce with you soon!”

David Simonich from SIGNS OF THE SWARM comments on the tour announcement: “We’re pumped to do a proper co-headlining tour in Europe and the UK after summer 2023’s awesome co-headlining mainland shows between festivals with Humanity’s Last Breath and our UK headliners with Mental Cruelty and Harbinger. We’ve all listened to Veil of Maya for AGES, so to be billed beside them is an honour! Varials are a fellow Pennsylvania band, so we’ve been pals for quite a while and their moshy metalcore is going to be a nice complement to all the deathcore. To the Grave ripped North America with us and Carnifex, then after that lineup finished they joined us up the west coast and across Canada, so it’s going to be great to conquer another part of the world with them. This tour is truly stacked, and we’re excited to add another side to the already-iconic Faces of Death brand!”
Produced by Josh Schroeder (LornaShore, King 810, Tallah, Varials), SIGNS OF THE SWARM‘s latest release – Amongst the Low & Empty (2023) – is so destructively deafening, it blew out Schroeder’s subwoofer!
“We’ve always been a deathcore band”, states Bobby Crow. “But this record is a lot MORE – it’s got death metal, metalcore, djent, some industrial stuff…We wanted to make something that was just heavy.”

ABOUT SIGNS OF THE SWARM:
Produced by Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, King 810, Tallah, Varials), SIGNS OF THE SWARM‘s latest full-length offering, Amongst the Low & Empty, is the first SIGNS OF THE SWARM album to feature an outside producer. Massive, unapologetic and unrelenting in its assault, this fifth full-length keeps listeners on the edge of their seat. Songs like the title track, ‘Pray For Death’ and ‘Malady’ put to shame the slamming ‘br00tality’ of sophomore LP The Disfigurement of Existence, with vocalist David Simonich’s animalistic growls and screeches outdoing any swarm, pack, or otherwise, found in the wild. Despite the savage brutality, the leader of this herd IS the structure that is simultaneously more rigid yet more explorative, complete with a catchy groove underneath – the likes of which hasn’t been heard from SIGNS OF THE SWARM. It’s the bedrock that allows ‘Tower of Torsos’, ‘DREAMKILLER’ and ‘Pray For Death’ to be as catchy as they are. Songs like ‘Shackles Like Talons’ and ‘Fire and Stone’ split the difference incisively. Trivium mastermind Matthew K. Heafy even sent over a guest shout for ‘The Witch Beckons’.SIGNS OF THE SWARM ARE:
