Thy Art Is Murder have been teasing a new album for months and now they have delivered the goods. They dropped a new single and video for the title track of their new album Human Target, due out on July 26th via their label Nuclear Blast. Pre-orders and merch bundles are live right now, and you can check out the video below.
Comments Thy Art is Murder guitarist Andy Marsh: “Human Target« was the last song written for the album as I felt we lacked an opening track to set the mood and provide the impact for what was to come. Human organ harvesting had been brought to my attention as a serious matter that wasn’t receiving much coverage (or not enough for me to hear about it) and I thought the issue required more scrutiny and awareness. To distill the metaphors of proletariat subjugation down to the visceral injustice of taking away the engines of life, seemed to be a powerful atmosphere to open the record.”
»Human Target« was produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Will Putney at Graphic Nature Audio in Belleville, NJ. The artwork was once again painted by Eliran Kantor (Hatebreed, Testament, Iced Earth, Sodom).
