How Salem Vex Created Crucifiction to Bring Horror Movies to Deathcore with Album "Will To Power"

When a musician decides to move on from their band and start something completley new, it is scary. But there is a beauty in it for the artist, because now they have a blank canvas with no expectations to create with.

Now moving on from Bloodbather, this band is taking on a new challenge. Taking deathcore and horror, and creating their own stories off of it.

Salem from the deathcore band Crucifiction joins the Chord Progression Podcast. With the debut album, Will To Power, releasing on October 11th, discover this new band with us as we discuss:

• Why Salem left Bloodbather to create Crucifiction, and the blank canvas of creativity he now has with it.
• How Salem's love of horror inspired the project, and how his writing style takes the dark side of horror movies and implements them here.
• A look into the new album Will To Power, and how the song VHS was amplified with a feature from Darius of Spite.

A great new, heavy band to check out. Go and hit that subcsribe button to not miss out on any more bands you should be checking out.
