In an act of audacious defiance that is sure to ignite controversy, death metal titans DEICIDE have released their provocative new digital single ‘Sever The Tongue’ today, Ash Wednesday, adding a layer of blasphemy to this day’s observances. This amplifies the band’s notorious reputation for challenging religious conventions, reinforcing their position at the vanguard of the death metal genre.
If the gruesome visuals of ‘Bury The Cross…With Your Christ’ didn’t offend then lines like this from ‘Sever The Tongue’ certainly will, “Wrath of the holy / God is no more / Satan possess me / No savior reborn / F**k your religion / Sever the tongue.”
Glen Benton, the ever-provocative frontman, taunts, “A life undone on the crucifix hung…sever the tongue…”
‘Sever The Tongue’ is crafted in the infernal workshops of Smoke & Mirrors, showcasing DEICIDE‘s relentless pursuit of extreme musical devastation. The track benefits from the engineering prowess of Jeramie Kling and the adept musicianship of Taylor Nordberg, with the sonic alchemy perfected by the masterful mixing and mastering of Josh Wilbur.
This release not only serves as a harbinger of the darkly anticipated album »Banished By Sin,« set for release on April 26, 2024 via Reigning Phoenix Music, but also marks the opening of pre-orders for what promises to be a monumental addition to the death metal canon. Fans eager to secure their copy can do so now, ensuring they are among the first to experience DEICIDE‘s latest sacrilegious offering. Pre-orders are available HERE.
In addition to the single, DEICIDE have collaborated with David Brodsky from My Good Eye: Music Visuals for a visually arresting video that complements the track’s blasphemous undertones. With Brodsky at the helm, the video promises to be a cinematic journey through darkness and defiance. Allison Woest returns to produce, alongside a talented team dedicated to bringing the song’s thematic elements to life visually.
