Melodic tech metal outfit, SUBVERSION, has teamed up with Total Guitar / MusicRadar.com to launch a guitar playthrough video of the song "Entropy," taken from the band's sophomore album, Animi, out now on Rogue Records America. The new video featuring the talents of Subversion guitarist/vocalist, Kai Giritli, can be streamed exclusively at: https://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/guitar-playthrough-video-subversion-entropy-618153.
Animi can be purchased now via iTunes at: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/animi/id940086556 and Bandcamp at: https://subversionuk.bandcamp.com/album/subversion-animi.
A music video for the song "Born of the Sun" can be seen on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/0-CuZknBLMc.
Building upon the band's debut album, Lest We Forget, which released to critical praise from Metal Hammer, Kerrang, Terrorizer, Rock Sound Magazine and more, SUBVERSION describes Animi as "bigger, heavier and sprinkled with a mental amount of epic. We have retained what people loved about the first album and built upon that early foundation in a way that we hope will make you stand back and realize that we are back."
Animi was produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Kai Giritli, and artwork comes courtesy of Snovonne Drake (https://www.snovonne.net/snodrakedesign/).

"'Animi' suggests that the London-based technical groove metal quintet is finding its voice and finding it fast." - Decibel Magazine
"SUBVERSION is further proof that the UK is a leading source for mind-altering, modern prog metal." - MetalInsider.net
"SUBVERSION have quite simply nailed down one hell of a huge, rich and powerful sound that's both brutally heavy and beautifully majestic" (9/10) - Powerplay
"[SUBVERSION] have created a masterpiece of melodic technical prog metal!reminding us that this subgenre is still thriving" - Prog Magazine
Originating from the mind of Kai Giritli in 2008, SUBVERSION has played internationally with the likes of Tesseract, Mnemic, Monuments, Xerath, Hacktivist and Chimp Spanner and has been part of UK Tech Metal Festival and Euroblast Festival.
The five-piece potently blends hard-hitting vocals from front man, Jay Shields, with Giritli's soaring, hook-filled clean singing, guitar riffs that sway from heavy groove to epic melody and laser-tight percussion from drummer, Ben Atkinson. Metal Hammer described the band's debut as "jaw-dropping" while Terrorizer called it "an addictive romp."
