Kendra Sheetz Today, we’re excited to be premiering a new single from Portland, OR’s Master Splinter. The new track, entitled “A Caustic Version,” will be featured on the band’s upcoming self-titled album.
Master Splinter’s style is a unique approach to hard rock, blending monolithic riffs and heavy psychedelic leads with dynamic, prowling bass lines and progressive style drumming. It all ties together with powerful and melodic vocals injected with a fresh and unique innovation as well as a tongue in cheek irreverence for the endless absurdities of modern life.
Band member Jason Schauer shared the following about the new release:
“‘A Caustic Version’ is an anthemic, wholesale buy-in of capitalism and the gluttonous ingestion of all the trappings that come with success. Loyalty, ideology and morality are not the basis for these titans of industry, they are only tactics to ensure the continuation of their dominance. I am compelled to profess my dear, sweet, self-proclaimed “altruistic” listener and readers; you wish you were one of them. Don’t you?
The songs lyrics are written as a skit, a dialog between two cocaine snorting morally bankrupt wall street suits who are devising different ways to manipulate people out of their money, and throwing in degrading insults toward the ignorant masses along the way.”
