Flint - The Story Behind the Music

While Pestilent Age strives to write material relating to global or Unites States national problems the band thought it was important to talk about a problem that is very much local for us. A lack of clean fresh water is a problem that troubles much of the globe. For those of us fortunate to live in a 1st world country challenges like this hardly ever pop into our mind. Until it happens in your own back yard to your own friends and family most of us would never give such prob

Flint - What to Expect

The music behind “Flint” starts off with a slam type riff. Groove laden quarter notes on the guitar and bass sit over Steve’s 16th note carpet rolls and pounding rim shots. 200 BPM of power are unleashed right from the start. “FLINT” is the 2nd fastest song Pestilent Age has written and by far the most complex guitar centered song to date. While the entire song is in the key of B, three different scales are utilized. An intro riff in B Phrygian quickly changes into a B Phrygi

Thank You for Such an Amazing 2017

A huge thank you is long overdue for all of the support our fans have shown us in 2017. It’s been a long year but we’ve learned a lot and worked hard every day to improve our song writing as well as our bettering ourselves in the studio. April saw the release of our 5 song concept E.P. “Novgorod”. This fall we began to release singles which we’ll continue to release well into the spring of 2018. We’ve been lucky enough to share the stage with a bunch of bands we’ve never play

Chemicals of Annihilation Out 10/12/2017

Pestilent Age is back and man it feels good. As always, we’ve been extremely busy writing and recording new music. The single we are about to release is just the second of eight singles that will drop in the coming months. Releasing singles one by one has given us the opportunity to hyper-focus on our craft and experiment a great deal. Each song has been a chance to change our writing process, tweak our playing, change our tone, try new techniques, and execute different mix i

The History of Novgorod Song by Song: Volume 5: Baptizing the Rus'

At long last we reach the conclusion of our concept E.P. Novgorod. We’ve enjoyed the telling of tales long forgotten. This last installment talks about the Rus’s forced conversion to Christianity in order to gain alliances and score trade deals. The end of an era it was, but arguably it was the beginning of middle ages Russia. Now, without further delay let’s do this. The year was 988 A.D. Vladimir the great ruled the Rus’. He had accomplished much in his rule, the consolidat
