BLACK PESTILENCE Premiere “Spurn All Gods” Video, New Album Due In May
March 27, 2020, 4 years ago
Calgary’s Black Pestilence will release their sixth studio album, Hail The Flesh, on May 1. The first taste comes in the form of a new video for the single “Spurn All Gods”.
The abrasive sounds of Black Pestilence are contrived of black metal, punk, and noise, blurring the borders between genres and bringing a sonic assault to listeners around the world.
“Hail The Flesh will be fast, and chaotic," says vocalist / bassist Valax. "Lyrically, for it, I talk about glorifying the carnal lifestyle and celebrating Earthly pleasures and indulgences. I am inspired by so many different avenues for lyrics. Without sounding too cliche, most of the lyrics are about Satanism, but not on a theistic level, just true, carnal, humanistic Satanism. Many other songs are also about social issues.”
