Swedish metal band Ravened has released a video for their new single ‘Pariah’.

Check out the music video below.

Even though the band members are between 20-25 years old, the music has been a big part of their lives for generations. Olle Liljegren (guitars, songwriter) is son to Simeon Liljegren (Modest Attraction, Audiovision), and nephew to Christian Liljegren (Narnia, Flames of Fire, The Waymaker, Audiovision, Divinefire, Golden Resurrection, etc.) and drummer Oliwer Svensson is son to Kent Svensson (Hellfueled).

Ravened from Jönköping, Sweden, is all about really tight modern metal merged with influences from the past. Bands like Pantera, Bloodbath, Lamb of God, and Metallica has inspired Ravened’s music.

Ravened delivers heavy riffs, well-written lyrics, and a hunger and passion like few other bands in their age. The band delivers energetic shows, comfortable dressed, but very engaged in the audience.

From first introduction-track ‘The Path’ and into ‘Foul Deeds’ to closing title track ‘From the Depths’, the band keeps the listener’s interest. The guys put their hearts and minds into songs like ‘Stridsugglan’, with its attitude, and the mighty ‘Personal Universe’, featuring a church cantor, playing a grand church organ.

The band was formed in 2018, and has just started their journey towards an exciting future. This is where it all starts!

Ravened‘s sophomore album The Relentless has been released 9 June 2023. Our review can be found here.

Lyrics: Pariah

The sins of the father
One sentence hurt me deeply
Beneath the surface
I’m armed to the teeth
The cursed are gods
They won’t give in for none
Corrupted by fear
The venom within ourselves
They speak of loss
Gutted to the bone
Consumed by their eulogy
Deliver me, separate me from my enemy
The human authority
Liberation, into mayhem
Like we’re nothing

I need to get away from this verdict (from this verdict)
This leaderless conflict breeds the murderer
Commitment to false believes
Convicted with eyes only

I want to get out of me
Break the illusion
I crawl up, face drowned, left out in the background
This is my desolation
Backfired, flatlined
I want to get out of me
Deliver me from my instincts
I’m flooded

I need to get away from this verdict (from this verdict)
This leaderless conflict breeds the murderer
Commitment to false believes
Convicted with eyes only

You were born with the death of me,
Inside there’s a purpose for no one to see
I wanted to feel everything that I’ve done
Let them float
Now
Let them float
This is a day of remorse
Let them float
Murderer
Let them rot
Pariah
Let them rot
Come forth
Let them all rot

I need to get away from this verdict
I need to get away from me
Commitment to false believes
Convicted with eyes only
Commitment to false believes
Convicted with eyes only
I need to get away from this verdict
I need to get away from me
