In advance of the release of their forthcoming album, War For An Idea, NYC metallers IKILLYA have just revealed a new lyric video, "Every Man For Himself". Of the haunting song, frontman Jason Lekberg explained, ""Every Man For Himself" was written in response to a song from an artist I respect. His admission of God as a guiding force in his life made me sad that he felt he needed that support, or at least needed to share that commonality with others. Musically this is a very different song for us but writing it inspired further exploration on the album. We doubled all of the guitars with a glisstentar which helps give it that creepy vibe and ended up doing that many other times on the album."
War For An Idea is due out next week on June 2nd via Urban Yeti. War For An Idea is available for pre-order. The band hit the road next week on a nationwide trek in support of the album. Please see below for tour dates, including the annual charity event in honor of Dimebag Darrell, Ride For Dime, on September 2nd at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ.
IKILLYA has toured with such heavy music legends as DANZIG, BIOHAZARD, FEAR FACTORY and more. The band is part of hip hop artist YELAWOLF's Slumerican family and is the only metal group with that distinction. IKILLYA is Jason Lekberg (vocals), Eric Jackson (guitars), Rob Broderick (bass) and Andrew Maciejewski (drums).
