Modern metal band Shattered Sun will release their sophomore record The Evolution of Anger on July 21st through Victory Records. The band has just released the first video from the album for "Burn It Down." "People are fed up and I am certainly fed up," said lead singer Marcos Leal which is a sentiment that is rampant throughout this record, and really throughout the world. To record The Evolution of Anger, the band got together with producer Mark Lewis (DevilDriver, Fallujah) in early 2017 to start work on the album. Lewis was very integral to the process, as he brought a new vibe and authority to the scene. "Mark brought a sound to the band that we didn’t think we were capable of," commented guitarist Jessie Santos. Artwork for The Evolution of Anger was provided by Marcelo Vasco (Slayer, Machine Head). Regarding lead track "Burn It Down," Leal admits, "We almost burned this band into the ground internally." He's referring to the departure of guitarist Daniel Trejo from the band in late 2015 before later rejoining. "Between all the things we have done over the years, things finally came to the surface. Once Daniel came back into the fold, the first song he showed me was 'Burn It Down,' and it is a perfect reflection of what occurred within Shattered Sun."
