HELGARDH Release Official Music Video for "The Aberration Scars"

Clawhammer -USBM extremists HELGARDH have released the official music video for its newest single, "The Aberration Scars."

The track is the first to be released off the band's forthcoming sophomore effort, Mallevs Maleficarvm, which is due out later this year on Horror Pain Gore Death Productions. The video and lyrics to "The Aberration Scars"





        


Lyrics:

Forced open wounds
The infection spreads internally
The aberration scars
slowly reap the essence of what life has sown

Doctrines will guide martyrdom toward death

The gallows await the flesh of their necks
the vermin prepare to devour
Relinquish the vein of mortality
to the cold grasp of death

Bearers of ophidian blood
remain stagnant and cold beneath the mantled earth

For in their flesh they will suffer 
and in death a martyr they'll remain
In shallow graves they'll be buried
without a stone to mark where they are lain

The mark of hell is branded on forked tongues
to seek the profane glory of Black Mass genocide
...the Purge

In their flesh they will suffer 
and in death a martyr they'll remain
In shallow graves they'll be buried
without a stone to mark where they are lain

Doctrines will guide martyrdom toward death

Necrotic bones exiled to graves
the vermin prepare to devour
Relinquish the vein of mortality

to the cold grasp of death

Desecration Premiere Debut Music Video ‘Coffin Smasher’ Exclusively With Terrorizer

Band Desecration from the UK released a new video "Coffin Smasher" exclusive on the Terrorizer page.

Official statement by Desecration "“We’ve thought about doing videos for songs in the past. We’ve sat down with people to bounce ideas across for storylines etc. but they’ve never amounted to anything. This time we knew it had to happen with everything being online these days. So we collared Adam Edgerley (drummer Mic and ‘Cemetery Sickness’ producer Joe Thompsons partners at Sonic Forge). We knew Adam would do a fantastic job, and also remain patient while we threw more and more challenging ideas at him. Fair play, we couldn’t be happier with how it came out.

“We chose this song for the video because every time we played it in the rehearsal rooms we knew it was a corker. The lyrical content meant that it was easy enough to think of a narrative for the video too, and we thought it was achievable whilst also being pretty daring.

“The indoor performance shots were recorded in a church that our friend Chi from Spider Kitten owns up in the valleys, and the outdoor scenes we filmed… locally. I don’t want to say much more there, as let’s just say we weren’t supposed to be there.

“Shooting the video was exactly how you would expect digging a 6 foot hole in the pissing rain at night would be. We didn’t want to cut any corners, so everything you see on the video actually happened.”

HORRID: "Blood on Satan's Claw" Streaming at Crown of Viserys

ClawhammerPR "Metal hub Crown Of Viserys is streaming "Blood on Satan's Claw" off of Sacrilegious Fornication, the new album from Italian old-school death blasphemers HORRID. 

A ripping and relentless slab of true death metal in vein of DEICIDE and AUTOPSY, "Blood on Satan's Claw" is now playing at this location. 

Sacrilegious Fornication is out now on Dunkelheit Produktionen on CD and digital formats. To order, visit the links below:
www.dunkelheit.cc
dunkelheitprod.bandcamp.com

Italy's HORRID have cultivated their bleak style of cult death metal since 1989. The band's newest album, Sacrilegious Fornication, stays true to their roots without sounding rehashed in any way.  The evil ones rage through their rolling and martyring tracks in a brute and insanely sinister way. The music is variable yet disturbingly morbid. The genre has not produced something of similar quality in years! Fans of Satanic Death Metal can revel in HORRID's pure and unrelenting blasphemy.

The album was recorded at Sweden's Sunlight Studios (KATATONIA, TIAMAT, ENTOMBED, DISMEMBER) by Thomas Skogsberg and mastered in the Occultum Studio in Biella, Italy. Sacrilegious Fornication contains an exclusive HELLHAMMER cover ("Massacra") and a special guest appearance by Johan Johannson (INTERMENT). Artwork comes courtesy of Cristophe "Thorncross" Moyen.
