Gear up for 1000mods' explosive return with 'Cheat Death'
Greek heavy rock titans 1000mods are gearing up for an earth-shattering return with their long-awaited fifth studio album, Cheat Death, slated for release on November 8th, 2024, via Ouga Booga and the Mighty Oug Recordings (worldwide) and Ripple Music (US). Four years since the release of their critically acclaimed album Youth of Dissent, and having set stages ablaze across the globe, 1000mods are back to reclaim their throne with what promises to be their heaviest and most hard-hitting record to date.
Cheat Death is a sonic juggernaut, featuring ten explosive tracks that seamlessly blend pulverizing metal riffs, raw punk energy, and a dose of bold alt-rock experimentation. From the colossal opener “Overthrown” to the album’s emotionally charged closing anthem, 1000mods deliver a masterclass in heavy rock with precision and grit, while pushing the boundaries of their own sound to uncharted territory. The result is an album brimming with intensity, power, and a renewed sense of purpose—one that’s destined to be a milestone in their already legendary career. This isn’t just a comeback—it’s a full-force assault on the heavy music world, with 1000mods poised to leave an indelible mark.
