U.S. Melodic Black Metal horde, Lenax, have released new single, "Leeches," on all digital platforms! Click the links below to stream/buy!






"Leeches" is a horror movie in a song. The allegory depicts those who would force religion onto others as blood sucking leeches. In true misanthropic black metal style, the song delights in the suffering of those who are a speaker of hate. The devout religious follower sees an incoming end of days with no savior in sight. The final verse flips the common religious theme of a coming apocalypse heralded by the great harlot and the beast as a sign not of the second coming of a savior, but the ends of religious facism

and tyranny.


This is the first song recorded by the band as a whole, as compared to debut EP, Purity, which was largely a solo effort by vocalist/guitarist Venomous and session bass player Hephaestus. Moving towards the completion of the writing of Lenax's forthcoming full-length album, all members of the band had an impact on "Leeches." Due to scheduling conflicts, Mordred covered bass guitar duty on the single, and the band brought in a session drummer while Profana was recovering from an injury.
