Dutch alternative industrial metal project First World Appetite has just dropped its crushing new single “Get Down,” the latest taste of the upcoming full-length album Angel Shades Demise , arriving June 12th.

Led by Ronald de Groot, the project continues its mission of turning personal struggle into sonic confrontation, channeling mental health battles, inner conflict, and societal decay into a sound that hits like a machine with no off switch.

The new single “Get Down” delivers a relentless blend of mechanical aggression, nu metal groove, and raw emotional intensity, setting the tone for what’s shaping up to be the project’s most punishing and honest release to date.

Each visual release adds another layer to the project’s bleak, industrial aesthetic, reinforcing themes of internal war, manipulation, and survival under pressure.

SOUND AND INFLUENCES

Angel Shades Demise pulls from the industrial force of Ministry , the theatrical darkness of Marilyn Manson , and the groove-heavy punch of Rob Zombie , while also embracing the raw intensity of Slipknot and Korn .

Expect distorted guitars, rapid-fire riffs, industrial synth layers, relentless drumming, and vocals that ride the razor’s edge between control and total collapse.

ABOUT FIRST WORLD APPETITE

Formed in 2017 by Ronald de Groot, First World Appetite is built on confrontation rather than escapism. The project dives headfirst into themes of mental health, identity collapse, social corruption, and the psychological cost of modern life.

Previous releases include the 2022 album LXIV and a 2024 industrial reimagining of Tom Waits ’ “Goin’ Out West,” further cementing the project’s commitment to raw, unfiltered expression.

This isn’t polished fantasy. It’s pressure, release, and truth wired straight into distortion.
