1914 RULES!!

Ukrainian WWI experts 1914 will re-release their breakthrough album "The Blind Leading The Blind" on Napalm Records on May 31st! The album quickly sold through its initial pressing and is out of print now. With their unique blackened death/doom metal sound, 1914 leads you back in one of the darkest chapters of the last century - they breathe The Great War!

Today, 1914 unleash the lyric video for “Arrival. The Meuse Argonne”. The song underlines the cruelty and misery of one of the biggest battles ever fought.

1914 on the historical background of the new video:  “The Meuse-Argonne Offensive was the bloodiest battle in U.S. military history, claiming the lives of more than 26,000 Americans and wounding 95,000. The Operation was launched in Northern France on Sept. 26, 1918 to push the Germans out of the country. The fight lasted a grueling 46 days and generated scores of stories of heroism and sacrifice. ‘The Americans are here,’ a German officer wrote. ‘We can kill them but we can't stop them.’”
