EX DEO is back with a new song "Vespasian" taken from the forthcoming EP titled "Year Of The Four Emperors". The EP’s closing track is an anthem of resilience and renewal. Vespasian emerges as a figure of stability amid the chaos, and the music reflects his calculated strength.

After three years since the release of their latest acclaimed full-length, The Immortal Wars, Roman Empire-inspired epic death metal band EX DEO are about to make their grand return – with a little extra boost from special guest Francesco Ferrini of Italian symphonic metallers FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE! Francesco Ferrini provided the stunning orchestral score for the colossal track, which will tell the tale of one of Rome’s greatest emperors, Marcus Aurelius – an important historical figure that EX DEO mastermind Maurizio Iacono feels a deep connection with. Iacono offers, “It’s been three years since the release of The Immortal Wars – an album that propelled EX DEO to a new level. This time, we didn’t want to wait another five years to release new material, so we decided to release a standalone new single called, “The Philosopher King” while we wait for the follow up album to The Immortal Wars.

The band shared the following statement : "Hello everyone a quick message from yours truly , We have been getting MANY requests about " IF Ex Deo WILL RETURN TO THE LIVE STAGE " at the moments I must be sincere and I have to say that NO plans have been made for EX DEO to do any touring or plays shows for the next album , so rumors of us touring soon are untrue . We have done the album because there was demand for it and because we missed it and wanted the challenge ourselves to see if we can top the "Romulus" and " Caligvla" albums , to be honest EX DEO is a tough project live and demands a lot time ( which we dont have much to spare ) , However we are currently exploring some options for 2017 but we are not certain if we will do them , most likely not, for those who want to see the band live then you will need to make your voices heard to the people who matter and spread the word , so the other guys in the band are willing to put back their a...
