The perverse album is a rough drop into a nightmarish world of forbidden desires, frustrated sexual urges and the dark realms of the subconscious mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">In conjunction with the announcement, the band has unveiled the intense and heavy first single, &#8220;Meat Star,&#8221; along with a stunning new music video. Directed by Ferran Ure\u00f1a (Vivir Rodando) and Eric Morales (Universal Music Group), the video features a top-notch production that weaves together a tale of humankind&#8217;s primal nature. The video can be viewed above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The band comments: &#8220;Reminiscent of the magickal works of Alejandro Jodorowsky or Kenneth Anger, &#8216;Meat Star&#8217; is a bizarre dream-like odyssey where symbols old and new walk hand in hand to convey a powerful message: the meaning of your existence will eventually find you, and the price will be some kind of death. &#8216;Meat Star&#8217; is a song about accepting hardship and pain as a means of discovering your true purpose, and the transformation and sacrifices you must undergo once you&#8217;ve committed yourself to that very goal. It is the soundtrack to the crucifixion, to the dismemberment of Dionysus and to the drowning of Osiris. It is an ode to the regenerative power of endings, once you\u2019ve realized that surrendering is the only way to win.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;Meat Machine&#8221; tracklisting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">1.
