The single comes with a lyric\/ vocal playthrough video so listeners can sing and play along. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lycanthro - Evangelion (OFFICIAL VIDEO)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/e5TqZeLjNtY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The writing process for the band is usually very singular, James Delbridge (vocals\/guitars) writes all of the songs for&nbsp;<strong>Lycanthro<\/strong>, but the other members will always chime in with their ideas. In terms of how he writes songs, they usually start based around a lyrical concept and the music flows around that. He explains how&nbsp;<strong>\u201cEvangelion\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;came to be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>\u201cWe felt as though this track would be a good addition to the album to diversify it even more. This song was a passion song for me as it took me a year to write it! Mainly because I wrote this song bit by bit while I wrote some of the other songs. Lyrically this song is based on the anime \u201cNeon Genesis Evangelion\u201d which is a show that is very near and dear to my heart. As for the music, there\u2019s a few cool synth lines in the song that gives it an epic feel as well as one of the more melodic guitar solos on the album.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">From the get-go, the band knew this song would be perfect to close the album on an epic and triumphant note. It mixes intense melody within the layered, soaring vocal melodies, with heavy-hitting guitars akin to Rainbow or \u201cLast in Line\u201d era Dio. Listeners will marvel at the peaks and valleys that this epic track has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>\u201cMark of the Wolf\u201d&nbsp;<\/strong>covers several metal bases from power to thrash to prog and is recommended for fans of Judas Priest, Saxon, Blind Guardian, and Helloween.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-85610\" width=\"518\" height=\"518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88-1170x1170.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mark88.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 518px) 100vw, 518px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\u201cMark of the Wolf\u201d is being released on June 4, 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>\u201cMark of the Wolf\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;is out on June 4, 2021 via&nbsp;<strong>Alone Records<\/strong>.<br \/><br \/>Album pre-order available on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/lycanthro.bandcamp.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bandcamp<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/lycanthromerch.bigcartel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Big Cartel<\/a>.<br \/>Digital pre-save (Spotify)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/distrokid.com\/hyperfollow\/lycanthro\/crucible\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<br \/><br \/>Single &#8211;&nbsp;<strong>\u201cCrucible\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/f0vnE4_mT9k\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/f0vnE4_mT9k<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Power\/thrash metal act\u00a0LYCANTHRO\u00a0has a new album coming out this year and in true power metal&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":85612,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-85606","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85606","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=85606"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85606\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":85611,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85606\/revisions\/85611"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/85612"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=85606"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=85606"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=85606"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
