Heavy rock outfit BONE DAGGER have revealed their new track “Cycle Of The Self”. The song is from their upcoming EP The Veil which will be released on August 18th 2023.
The band commented, “This song is a testament to my tireless search for meaning, purpose, and placement within existence. I often find myself stalling during the day, thinking about what came before my time in this body, and inevitably what comes next. It certainly feels like I’ve been here a time or three. Surely, human life is not the end-all-be-all; there must be something more. Earth is a mess, and I am certainly not the only one who is hoping there are other dimensions where existence in solid form isn’t our only option for 80+ years of life. The song is a soul-searcher, designed to bring awareness to the possibility of a cyclical, repetitive existence if we don’t learn from the mistakes of our previous lives. However, it’s curious that we usually cannot remember anything before our current form. ‘Cycle of the Self ‘is for the listener who needs more cognitive appeal in their music and enjoys their thoughts being provoked to entertain potentially absurd possibilities”.

About BONE DAGGER:
BONE DAGGER was founded in 2020 by John Lund during the pandemic following a 7-year hiatus from any sort of musical output. BONE DAGGER was devised with the intention of keeping as much in-house as possible with the exception of post-production. Around a year later Braden Richey joined the fold as the lead guitarist and contributed what you hear on this EP until taking a perpetual leave of absence in late 2022. John is pushing on as a solo act until the right members are found. Musically the band draws influence from a wide array of rock and metal acts including GOJIRA, MUSE, SLIPKNOT, and ALICE IN CHAINS.
BONE DAGGER IS:
John Lund – Vocals, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitars, Bass, Drum Programming
