We’ve teamed up with Dallas metal band Kaliya to bring you the exclusive song premiere of “Blank Stare”, which comes from their upcoming EP MMXVI. The track is an onslaught of aggression, pure and simple. The guitars sound like chainsaws while vocalist Tyler Berry bellows, screams, and rasps his vocals. If you need something driving and brutal to get you through the rest of the week, look no further.

Guitarist Ben Cooper talks about the band’s approach to MMXVI:

These four songs are what we feel represents the next step in the new direction of Kaliya that began with our last (self titled) full length. We really wanted to cut out any possible elements of filler and go straight to the core of what we are doing. There is a variety of parts / songs on the EP but to us they are all Kaliya. Our guitar player Thomas Booe was the audio engineer on the album and the mixing and mastering process was handled by William Blackmon of Gadget.

MMXVI will first be released digitally but will then see a physical release as a 7″ through Burning Dogma Records.
