Sifting – “Pledge Of Our Generation”

Innovative progressive metal outfit Sifting have revealed the album art, track listing, and release date for their sophomore full-length album, Not from Here. The album was produced by Ryan Williams (Velvet Revolver, Rage Against the Machine), and Steve Evetts (Senses Fail, Suicide Silence).

The band has also released a lyric video for the song “Pledge of Our Generation” which may be watched at this location and also streamed via Spotify. Front-man Eduardo Gil states:

I wrote Pledge of our Generation in memory of the countless people that have given their lives while fighting for freedom and democracy back in Venezuela, where I was born. All these people (most of them very young), have been killed by the very same establishment that should be protecting them. Instead, the police and military are being misused by the corrupt legacy of Chavez, currently led by President Nicolas Maduro. The Venezuelan people need the world to know, that wherever you are, you can raise your voice and make a difference. United through peaceful protest, artistic freedom, and free speech, we can make a stand against this tyrant regime. We can honor the struggle of those who are still on the streets of Venezuela, fighting for our country’s freedom.
