I recorded the song almost two years ago. It was long overdue for release. It’s a fun collaboration – badass and full of passionate energy. The dynamics are absolutely killer – a vocalist’s dream. WARNING: the second half of the song may cause speeding tickets.”

The release starts the year off with a bang for Vox, who has torn through multiple hard rock and metal sub-genres, including industrial metal, apocalyptic metal, and an epically heavy modern reimagining of the iconic ’80s duet “It’s Only Love” featuring Corey Glover and Vernon Reid (Living Colour) alongside Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme). Now, with “The Heretic (The Lost Child),” Vox leans fully into a blistering hair metal throwback, proving her range is as fearless as it is formidable.

Militia Vox is currently working on a new album featuring original material, while also contributing vocals to the upcoming 24-7 Spyz album and their forthcoming documentary.
