Deserts of Mars

Hey Martian Maniacs!! We’re proud to announce the release of the new single “Crimson Mountain” from the upcoming album “Dead Planet Exodus.” You can stream it across the Universe on the platform of your choice!

You can also watch the new Lyric video for Crimson Mountain here: (full album credits in the about):

“Heavily inspired by sci-fi and Tabletop RPGs, DESERTS OF MARS deliver a dynamic sonic mixture of stoner rock, grunge, metal, and doom/industrial. The new single “Crimson Mountain” is out now, and lands ahead of the forthcoming album Dead Planet Exodus to be released later this year.

The band comments on “Crimson Mountain”:

“An anthem and rallying cry for the Crashtronauts and the band as our heroes hop into a battle vehicle and head to take the rocket base atop the Crimson Mountain (you can see the rocket taking off on the album cover). I channeled all the anime/action visuals in my head for this one, as I wanted to evoke the feeling of a band going for broke with weapons shaped like instruments, slaying their enemies, and reaching their ultimate goal.

Thinly veiled, but the last lyric: ‘This flight, our final fight To seize our place Among the stars’ is how I feel this album and its strange winding production has been for the band. This is our final make or break during this time period, and a call to action that we have to make things happen.”

Thanks to C-Squared Music for being awesome and getting the word out, and to everyone keeping Mars Metal alive!

For the past year, we have been sailing the universe hard at work on a new album and trying to find the right astronauts for this new interstellar journey. Recently, coming in like a comet, Kotah Mack crashlanded into Mars’s home base, and we have been crafting a new set as he learns the universal riffs of the new album (he’s also been coming up with tasty new riffs as well!). We are looking forward to getting back out there live, and we have some other cool stuff coming soon. Expect more updates and more Mars Metal in the near future!! Keep your eyes and ears to the stars, Martian Maniacs!
