ABOUT THE NEW ALBUM “WARENTA”

“Warenta”is the 4th Concept-Album of French Melodic Thrash Metal band DEFICIENCY. The listener is immersed in a 1940’s mining town where curses, legends and superstitions upset the hard life of the coal people. The album deals with a real event based story, when families were face to the sickness of their children. Mothers found on pillows the feathers forming strange unbreakable nests or birds shapes. The sign of a sorceress cursing their life. Each song of the album is focused on the gallery of characters, items, places or events of this dramatic story.
Musically, DEFICIENCY delivers an intense and diversified score, as its Thrash Metal basis is being stretched according to symphonic, epic, heavy or modern inspirations. ” Warenta” promises to take the audience into a deep journey with 10 catchy, agressive and melodic tracks recounting this dark story through its singular characters and disturbing events, inexorably leading to collective hysteria.

ABOUT DEFICIENCY

BIOGRAPHY

For nearly fifteen years, DEFICIENCY has been forging its way on the French and European Metal scene. Combining tradition with modernity, the quartet’s Melodic Thrash Metal defies simple labels. DEFICIENCY embraces a broad spectrum of extreme music, weaving in progressive, technical, symphonic, and catchy elements, all in service of the song’s impact and the coherence of their overall productions. The band skillfully adapts its sound to offer variety without losing focus. With four concept albums praised for their quality by the specialized press (several rated 8/10 by Rock Hard France, 5/6 by Metallian…) and beloved by the public, DEFICIENCY brings its full energy to the stage, having performed over 200 shows across Europe, including tours (with AMON AMARTH, ANGELUS APATRIDA, SUICIDAL ANGELS), support acts (for MACHINE HEAD, TESTAMENT, DECAPITATED, NAPALM DEATH, CRISIX & many more), and notable festivals (such as HELLFEST OPEN AIR, MOTOCULTOR, ROCK YOUR BRAIN FEST, MENNECY METAL FEST…).
Their fourth concept album, ‘Warenta,’ released in March 2022 via Metal East Productions, explores a mysterious local legend from a mining region in the 1940s and has received overwhelming critical acclaim. In 2024, DEFICIENCY marked two major milestones: their first-ever live appearance at Hellfest Festival and the release of a new single “The Nest”.
