God Dethroned haben im Herbst ihr neues Album "The Judas Paradox" parat und mit "Rat Kingdom" wird schon im Vorfeld ordentlich eingeheizt:
"This song is about the Vatican and the many secrets that are being kept there, away from the eyes of the world. And he who speaks will disappear in the shadows down below. Musically, it's a song which starts with a classic pile of melody lines that makes it both hymnic and bombastic, followed by a blast of fury with a black metal vibe and the Serpent King's very own style of guitar solo - one which stands out from the masses and pays tribute to the late Jeff Hanneman.""
