EXMORTUS Debut "Legions Of The Undead" Visualizer
October 25, 2019, 5 years ago
With All Hallows' Eve and the Day Of The Dead fast approaching, L.A.-based thrash/death/shred quartet Exmortus have unveiled a visualizer for the title track for their just-released horror-themed EP, Legions Of The Undead. Check out the clip, which was designed by Wayne Joyner (Dream Theater, Devin Townsend), below.
Says guitarist Jadran "Conan” Gonzalez: "Just in time for Halloween, enjoy this video of the new EP title track, 'Legions Of The Undead,' inspired by the darker themes in Tolkien & Lovecraft lore. We are extremely excited to perform the new songs on Death Angel's North American Humanicide Tour this November and December. See you on the road, Legions!"
As Gonzalez acknowledged, the song "Legions Of The Dead” nods to the Dead Men of Dunharrow in Lord Of The Rings. It is joined on the new EP by one other new original track - the Evil Dead-inspired "Swallow Your Soul” - as well as three instrumental covers: renditions of Danny Elfman's "Beetlejuice” theme and Bernard Hermann's theme from Alfred Hitchcock's horror classic Psycho, as well as a neoclassical shred take on 19th Century Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky's haunting "Night On Bald Mountain.”
