Australian progressive metalcore band Northlane has released a new track, Welcome To The Industryspecially designed for the upcoming video game Fretless – The Wrath Of Riffson. This Metal-themed RPG game, where battles are fought with guitar riffs, was developed in collaboration with musician and YouTuber Rob Scallon, who also inspired the game's main character.
A tailor-made composition for a metal game
Northlane shared their enthusiasm for this unique project, explaining that the creation of Welcome To The Industry was a challenge as creative as it was fun. The song had to be both powerful and slightly offbeat to fit in with the crazy world of the game. “We sought a balance between groovy riffs, build-ups and punchy chords, with an emphasis on the guitar while keeping the supporting electronic elements,” the group explained. The title perfectly captures the metal atmosphere of the game, with passages designed to accompany the dialogues and the plot, thus reinforcing the immersive experience.
