EXMORTUS Pledges “Death To Tyrants” In Cinematic Lyric Video

The Los Angeles-based, neoclassical metal-inspired extreme shred quartet Exmortus will further their claim that “metal is king” in early 2016 with their blistering new album, Ride Forth. The band have unveiled another pulverizing new track from their forthcoming release. The heroic lyric video for “Death To Tyrants” can be seen below:

Ride Forth was recorded earlier this year with producer Zack Ohren (Suffocation, Immolation) before the group hit the road alongside guitar legend Marty Friedman on his recent North American tour. More details about the new album will be revealed in the coming weeks.

Having previously shared stages with the likes of Kyng, Destruction, Dark Tranquillity, Krisiun and Hatchet, Exmortus will next appear at Southern California’s Winter Slaughter Fest with Flotsam & Jetsam and label mates Holy Grail before kicking off the new year with an intense seven-week jaunt alongside Enforcer, Warbringer and Cauldron.

Full dates and information can be found here.

The menacing cover for the new release – featuring oil-painted artwork by the legendary Philip Lawvere (Kreator, Celtic Frost), who previously contributed his epic artistry to the band’s 2014 label debut, Slave To The Sword – can be seen below.
