NEWS: Spit On Your Grave cut out “The Infection”!

Having shared stages with Rotting Christ, Nervosa and Chelsea Grin in the past twelve months, Mexican Death Metal ensemble Spit On Your GraveĀ are preparing for a 12th April grand unveiling of album “Arkanum“. The follow up to 2018’s “The Night Of Women’s Rites“, it’s their fourth in a decade of destruction with themes of Madness, Serial killers, Death and Isolation all served with a side order of riffs. From the record they have revealed a music video for “The Infection“…

The band comments: “This song talks about the passive-aggressive manipulation that someone can have over another person, manipulating them to act under their interests, like a puppet, making them believe that they are really their own decisions, reflected as the song says, infecting someone’s brain. Inspired by The Magician tarot card. We chose 9 cards from the major arcana, (The Magician, The Devil, The Star, The High Priestess, The Moon, The Hanged Man, The Tower, The Hermit and Justice)

This conceptual album tells the process of a mental detox, talks about an internal struggle to restore your inner self, where your demons surface and everything you believed in is questioned, that moment when you realize that for years you have followed someone else’s lead. You’ve had enough and decide to leave everything behind. It’s about losing yourself by being influenced by someone else and the struggle to wake up from that ‘reality’. Centering the lyrics in this inner fight with yourself, involving depression, anxiety, mistrust, feeling unfairly judged by everyone and having no help around.
