British thrashers EVILE are beginning filming today for their new music video for the track 'Infected Nation', from the band's upcoming new album, Infected Nations.

The video for 'Infected Nation' is being shot at Shepperton Studios in Surrey, England - a notorious studio in which many iconic films, such as Alien, have been shot. Evile are once again working with director Dan Fernbach (BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE, KIDS IN GLASS HOUSES) of Static Films, whom the band previously worked with on their video for the track 'Thrasher'.

Frontman Matt Drake comments from the set: "I'm standing by a huge see-through box with smoke in it that I'm about to spend the next 12 hours in. We're doing a shoot for 'Infected Nation'. We're likely to choke to death but the video will look very cool!"

Guitarist Ol Drake adds: "I'm really excited to do this as after the first video we know what we're in for and can enjoy it - before the first one we were shitting ourselves! There's lots of smoke and smoke is metaaaaal!"

Keep up-to-date with the video shoot as it happens by checking out photos and more at earache.tumblr.com.

Matt Drake recently explained some of the lyrical themes from the band's new album, Infected Nations, and has now sat down again to discuss the ideas behind the remaining songs. See both parts, below.

Evile recently released another brand new track from Infected Nations. The new song, called 'Now Demolition', is the second track to be released from Infected Nations, due to be released on September 21st in Europe and September 22nd in the USA by Earache Records.

Check out the new track 'Now Demolition', along with the recently released 'Infected Nation' at the band's MySpace page.

Lead guitarist Ol Drake comments: "Next up is 'Now Demolition'. For the second track we previewed, we wanted it to show a whole other different end of the spectrum of feels on Infected Nations. This track is one on it's own on the album, a much more "heavy" orientated track designed to get fists in the air and heads going upward, then downward, and hopefully back up again. We hope you can check the entire CD out when it's released, do its Russ Russell production justice, and play it through a good sound system, as the best albums in the world can sound like shite through crappy speakers (especially if they're MP3s; excuse my language)."

Infected Nations was recorded with producer Russ Russell (NAPALM DEATH) at Parlour Studios during May 2009. The cover art was created by Michael Whelan, who is famous for his sci-fi artworks along with classic album covers from such bands as SEPULTURA and OBITUARY.

Infected Nations is now available for pre-order on very limited edition coloured vinyl LP. The LPs are available exclusively from the Earache webstores in red or white and are strictly limited to only 200 of each colour. The album is also available as a limited edition CD with an exclusive bonus track and a bonus DVD with behind-the-scenes and studio footage.

Make sure you don't miss out on the limited edition LP or CD by pre-ordering now in Europe at this location or in North American at this location.
