SUICIDE SILENCE Teams Up With BD To Launch World Premiere “Genocide” Music Video
Metal and horror have always seemed to go hand in hand and that definitely holds true with Suicide Silence and their track “Genocide”. We’re proud to team up with the band to present the worldwide exclusive debut of the video which features footage from Saw VI. “Genocide” can be exclusively found on the Saw VI soundtrack which is out now on Trustkill records and the band hits the road with Megadeth November 14th. Read on for your exclusive look at the video!

Mitch Lucker (vocals) states: “It is a huge honor to be touring this fall throughout North America with Megadeth and Machine Head, who our entire band worship. This is a big opportunity for us to take our crushing live shows to the unsuspecting masses and it’s always a great feeling seeing the bewildered looks on people’s faces during our sets as they weren’t expecting to be bludgeoned to death for 30 minutes. We go out on stage with one sole intention in mind: to blow people’s fuckin’ head’s off. This is going to be one of the biggest parties of the year, so we hope to see you all out there for a crushing night of unrelenting metal the way it was meant to be delivered by some of the all time best. Fuck yeah.”
It’s a new day, and you’ve got new John Carpenter to listen to. John Carpenter, Daniel Davies and Cody Carpenter have released the new track He Walks By Night this morning, the second single off their upcoming album Lost Themes IV: Noir, out May 3 on Sacred Bones Records.
Lost Themes IV: Noir is the latest installment in a series that sees Carpenter releasing new music for John Carpenter movies that don’t actually exist. The first Lost Themes was released in 2015, followed by Lost Themes II in 2016 and Lost Themes III: Alive After Death in 2021.
Sacred Bones previews, “It’s been a decade since John Carpenter recorded the material that would become Lost Themes, his debut album of non-film music and the opening salvo in one of Hollywood’s great second acts. Those vibrant, synth-driven songs, made in collaboration with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, kickstarted a musical renaissance for the pioneering composer and director. With Lost Themes IV: Noir, they’ve struck gold again, this time mining the rich history of the film noir genre for inspiration.
“Since the first Lost Themes, John has referred to these compositions as “soundtracks for the movies in your mind.” On the fourth installment in the series, those movies are noirs. Like the film genre they were influenced by, what makes these songs “noirish” is sometimes slippery and hard to define, and not merely reducible to a collection of tropes. The scores for the great American noir pictures were largely orchestral, while the Carpenters and Davies work off a sturdy synth-and-guitar backbone.
“The trio’s free-flowing chemistry means Lost Themes IV: Noir runs like a well-oiled machine—the 1951 Jaguar XK120 Roadster from Kiss Me Deadly, perhaps, or the 1958 Plymouth Fury from John’s own Christine. It’s a chemistry that’s helped power one of the most productive stretches of John’s creative life, and Noir proves that it’s nowhere near done yielding brilliant results.”
