Polish metal extremists Decapitated have released their music video for “Earth Scar”, a track from the band’s seventh album, Anticult, out July 7th via Nuclear Blast.

"We're really excited to release the second song from our upcoming new record Anticult - ​'​Earth Scar”!,” said guitarist Vogg. "I have always drawn influence from all spectrums of metal and this song and​ our new​ record really reflect those influences.

"​Much like “Never”, ​this ​song ​has been designed to crush on a stage and we can't wait to add it to our set. Rasta wrote the lyrics with a lot of metaphorical content dealing with touring. The opposing lifestyles from the 'normal,' day-to-day of being at home vs. being on the road and seeing our 'tribe' interacting with the music and the almost restorative qualities of that. We hope you all enjoy it and we can’t wait to see you all very soon!"

Anticult is available for pre-order here and here.

Anticult highlights just how vital Decapitated have remained two decades deep into their career. Decapitated have long been undeniable masters of their craft and they are expanding their parameters with Anticult, which should elevate the band's profile beyond the death metal realm in which it has dominated for years.

"Anticult represents the legacy and future of Decapitated," said guitarist Vogg. "We're extremely proud of the record, in both the song compositions and the production. This is the best representation of our music and we're really excited for the world to hear it!"

Anticult tracklisting:

“Impulse”
