Symphonic death metallers Septicflesh have had a busy start to their year. Last month saw the band perform their “Infernus Sinfonica II” orchestral show in Mexico to a sold-out crowd followed by the digital release of their newest EP “Amphibians” that coincided with the kick-off their “Modern Primitive Tour in North America”.
Today marks the release of the special LP + CD package for their new EP “Amphibians”. To celebrate, the band unveils the lyric video for the track “The Experiment”. Watch the lyric video created by Konstantin Stelnzer!
Septicflesh has a remarkable ability to maintain continuity from album to album, while at the same time building on what has they have created in the past. Lyrical elements incorporated in all of their albums are based on opposites. For example, the ideas of heaven and hell, good and evil, or development and destruction have often served as metaphorical images in Septicflesh’s lyrics. Musically, the band also plays on opposites, using the dynamic differences between dissonant vs. melodic and dark vs. light to create a blend of gentle orchestral passages with the heavy wall of sound that produces something very unique in the world of metal music. With the release of their most recent EP, “Amphibians”, Septicfleshcontinues to create a story that is equally as compelling as the music. So, dive in and become immersed in the world of amphibian demigods, the Nommo. Behold the Amphibians!
