Chicago’s thrash powerhouse, MISFIRE, has released a scorching new music video for “Left For Dead,” taken from their latest album, Product Of The Environment, via MNRK Heavy. This high-energy track features a compelling vocal contribution from Exodus’s frontman, Rob Dukes, who embodies a sinister presence, commanding MISFIRE’s lead vocalist, Tim Jensen, in a chilling performance.
Reflecting on the track, Jensen shares, “Everyone deals with demons in their mind at one point or another. Loud thoughts that rapidly overthrow one’s peace of mind. This song confronts them with even more volume and intensity and forces them to get out of your head! Joining us on this, we had the honor of having Rob Dukes of Exodus lend his ripping vocals for a crushing guest feature.”
Rob Dukes adds, “MISFIRE is a great band. Love the guys and it was an honor to sing on this track. It’s a killer song.”
