SONGS YOU SHOULD HEAR: ORINOCO – “WEAK”
BAND: Orinoco
SONG: “Weak”
SOUNDS LIKE: No frills deathcore FFO The Acacia Strain, Emmure, Carnifex
ABOUT THE TRACK: Joliet, IL deathcore band Orinoco will release their sophomore EP WHAT A RELIEF on March 1st, but today they are sharing a brand new live music video for their latest single “Weak.” The no frills video captures the band in their true, sludgy element, as they thrash the stage to fast-paced downtempo beats.
“Weak” is a cavernous track with classic doom guitar licks, beefy breakdowns and a whole heap of aggression. In the video, the band gets personal with their audience and gives the viewer a taste of their raw live show.
Coined after an episode of Beavis and Butt-Head, Orinoco formed in 2011 and immediately began hitting the scene hard. The four piece band has reconstructed throughout the years, but has not lost their focus or determination to bring fans the hot sauce that makes your taco THAT MUCH BETTER! The upcoming EP WHAT A RELIEF follows up their 2017 debut Nihilism.
“‘WHAT A RELIEF’ is the start of a new era for Orinoco,” says vocalist Anthony Guardiola. “This EP is a mixture of influences and raw ideas that are sure to grab hold of the listener. Never the less we are still heavy as concrete with breakdowns that could shatter a diamond. We put as much energy into this EP as we do our live shows and promise to not disappoint. It’s been a long journey for us but we love what we do and we love creating music that you can feel to your core, so buckle up let your hate out and enjoy the relief!“
