GEORGE KOLLIAScomments:"My song 'Shall Rise/Shall Be Dead' hits homeat the 260bpm range", explains the multi-instrumentalist. "It is not too easy, but a lot of fun to play and one of my favourites from my album. I really like that tempo range, which I always thought fits my drumming style well, but I also love the aggression that comes out of this song. It is not just the drumming that does it, but the riffs! the vocals!. or all as one. The percussion is really important for 'Shall Rise' and the rest of album as well. I spent plenty of time to find exactly what fits each composition. For this song, I went with big war drums to make it as epic as possible!I am very happy how this song turned outexactly how I envisioned it while writing. Yet having George Emmanuel from Rotting Christ adding a guitar solo made this oneof my personal highlights. George nailed it!"
