A music video for the title track to CARNIFEX‘s new album “World War X” has newly premiered online. The band’s own frontman Scott Ian Lewis directed the clip. The album itself is due in stores on August 02nd through Nuclear Blast.
Colossal swells erupt from a vast ocean of human suffering and universal dread and in their wake present to us the latest offering from the minds of CARNIFEX: World War X. Soul darkening, eye-bloodying, flesh crushing death metal is to be expected from this group of musicians, yet with the new album comes a unique notion of unavoidable hopelessness; the inevitable rot of mankind. CARNIFEX has stoked the coals and breathed a distinct power into »World War X« that boils over into subjects and sounds of human degradation.Still scorching from the release of »Slow Death« in 2016, CARNIFEX never really stopped their writing process but rather developed one element, and continued to flow into another to create a natural path between Slow Death and World War X. Although not a concept album as it would normally be defined, World War X is conceptually rounded in a manner which displays a distinguished theme. Through the lens of war can be viewed subjects CARNIFEX fans will be familiar with; individual struggles, and internalized challenges that can feel akin to a deadly battle.
