The adventurous spirit of the band\u2019s unprecedented collaboration with The Acacia Strain and Fit For An Autopsy, released as The Depression Sessions, continues unabated, expanding and informing the band\u2019s already confident creativity.<\/p>\n<p>A new generation of death metal acolytes and vintage older thrashers alike enthusiastically proclaim the band\u2019s unrelenting aggression, cementing a reputation with an increasingly fervent international fanbase. Videos for \u201cHoly War,\u201d \u201cThe Purest Strain of Hate,\u201d \u201cShadow<br \/>\nof Eternal Sin,\u201d \u201cThey Will Know Another,\u201d \u201cLight Bearer,\u201d and \u201cNo Absolution\u201d resulted in more than 30 million views on YouTube; \u201cReign of Darkness\u201d alone accounts for nearly a third of those online views.<\/p>\n<p>Thy Art Is Murder sharpened their sonic weapons on the road, with early tours in support of genre giants like Fear Factory and Cattle Decapitation, followed by much heralded appearances at Soundwave and all over North America on the Rockstar Mayhem Tour with Slayer. They\u2019ve earned accolades from the likes of Metal Hammer and fellow bands alike, while delivering standout sets at festivals like Download.<\/p>\n<p>Dear Desolation is custom built for the festival stage, organically streamlined to translate to a wide audience as skilfully as the central sound at Thy Art Is Murder\u2019s core has resonates in sweaty clubs and theatres since the band\u2019s formation in 2006. This is extreme metal for the people, torchbearers for a primal style that doesn\u2019t die.<\/p>\n<p>If this is truly the soundtrack to the end of humanity, it\u2019s music that should unite and empower extreme metal fans in all corners of the genre. Thy Art Is Murder skilfully ignites a crowd of 150 or 150,000.<br \/>\n <br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thyartismurder\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thyartismurder\/<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australian deathcore band THY ART IS MURDER are set to play a once off show&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-60744","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60744","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=60744"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60744\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":60749,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60744\/revisions\/60749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=60744"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=60744"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=60744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
