NEWS: Guillotine A.D. prepare for exile…

A second single from the M-Theory Audio debut “Born to Fall” from Southern Death Metal trio Guillotine A.D. – whose music blends the sounds of old-school Florida death metal, Scandinavian black metal and New Orleans sludge into an almighty sonic brew – has surfaced in lyric video form. One called “Exile“, it follows “Hammer” out of the gate from the eight track affair featuring cover art by Eliran Kantor (Testament, Sodom, Kataklysm) that is set for 24th June and is available for pre-order over at bandcamp.

The band comment: “Musically, ‘Exile’ is a good example of what can be expected from our new album. It has elements of death, doom, and black metal, with a little hook to bring it all together. This song highlights our versatility – we can go fast and we can go slow,” explains bassist/vocalist Adam Miller. “Lyrically, the song tells of a deposed ruler whose people still need his leadership and protection, even though he abused his authority. It’s a metaphor for the complex and sometimes contradictory emotions that define our relationships with each other and ourselves. Raf Ortega once again made an excellent lyric video that visually suits the song and features the amazing cover art painted by Eliran Kantor. Eliran blew our minds with his creation, which is a perfect interpretation of lyrical themes of the album as a whole. It’s meant to be played at crushing volume, so crank those decibels up!”
