WAGE WAR DROP VIDEO FOR EXPLOSIVE NEW SINGLE "MAGNETIC" — WATCH
CO-HEADLINING NORTH AMERICAN TOUR 2024 WITH NOTHING MORE + SPECIAL GUESTS VEIL OF MAYA + SLEEP THEORY KICKS OFF APRIL 16
Wage War - consisting of Briton Bond on lead vocals, Cody Quistad on rhythm guitar and clean vocals, Seth Blake on lead guitar, Chris Gaylord on bass, and Stephen Kluesener on drums - is starting 2024 off with the release of an explosive new single.
The band has gained a reputation for smart songwriting that expertly blends hooks with heaviness and sprinkles melody amidst the chaos. On their latest release, "Magnetic," the Florida-based group continues this tried and true formula that has been so effective for them. However, they take it up a notch and throw a few unexpected sonic curveballs in the space of four minutes. The melodic verses and choruses catch your attention, and the hard-charging, unholy roars and thick riffs keep it. "Magnetic" will remain in your head for a while, thanks to its supreme catchiness. It is indeed "Magnetic."
According to the band, "Magnetic" is a song about being attracted to someone you can't seem to let go of. Despite knowing what may be best, we're pulled back to a feeling that inevitably takes control. Fate decides our future.
