From the shadow-soaked corners of New England’s metal underground, AVERSED returns with Erasure of Color, a brutal and elegant firestorm of Gothic-laced melodic death metal—now out everywhere on digital and physical formats. To mark the occasion, the band has premiered a brand-new video for the track “Burn,” capturing the raw intensity of their live ritual in full flame.
Filmed in their home venue—The Middle East in Cambridge, MA—the video is pure adrenaline, fusing pit-swirling madness with visceral camera work and the band’s crushing stage presence.
“We unleashed our videographers into the crowd to brave the pit and capture the energy,” says guitarist Sungwoo Jeong. “They survived—and we’re glad we captured that amazing show for all eternity.”
But “Burn” isn’t just a pit anthem—it’s a multi-dimensional beast.
“It started as a big-stage anthem,” says drummer Jeff Saltzman. “Then we added a rumba-clave section, a bass solo, and lyrics about violent class revolution. Not exactly your standard metal banger—but that’s what defines AVERSED.”
