I’m not usually a fan of pure performance music videos. I’d much rather watch a video that tells a story with the music amplifying and explaining the imagery. However, there are times when you simply need to see people letting themselves go entirely and lose their minds to remind yourself the power and impact that music can have.
That’s why we’re excited to bring you the premiere of San Diego deathcore band Carnifex‘s brand new music video for “Slow Death”, the title track from their upcoming sixth studio album. The video shows the band performing in a warehouse while throngs of their fans headbang, jump, and full on rage alongside the performance.
Vocalist Scott Lewis tells Bloody-Disgusting, “Live performances are the flesh and blood of Carnifex. We live in die on the stage. For this video, we wanted to capture the energy of our fans and the band like never before. Plus, a cool abandoned warehouse party never hurts.”
You can see the video below and you can then pre-order Slow Death, which comes out August 5th via Nuclear Blast Records, right here.
