Swedish crust punkster Adrestia are proud to present their new video for the track “Rise Up” (feat. Nastya Palamar), taken from “The Wrath Of Euphrates” out via Wormholedeath / The Orchard / Wormholedeath USA. Statement:

“Rise Up is a song about breaking up traditional gender roles and fighting stereotypical and oppressive views on femininity and masculinity.
