THE PERFECT SOUND FOR AN APOCALYPSE! Privatized prisons enforce police states, where nonviolent offenders
languish for decades. Pharmaceuticals numb the mind. Social media distracts the spirit. All while the very planet lurches
toward an inevitable climate disaster that will extinguish humanity. The Nightmare of Human Organ Harvesting? That’s not
a gruesome song title from some forgotten old-school death metal record. It’s a headline from the Wall Street Journal.
Against this backdrop of postmodern dystopia, chaos, and confusion, arrives Human Target, the earth-scorching fifth
album from extreme metal titans THY ART IS MURDER. Australia’s most brutally alarming cultural export since George
Miller’s Mad Max franchise makes music that serves as a loud last gasp against the ever-encroaching void. It’s a blazing
light of nihilistic despondency before the final darkness. Fusing authentic crushing death metal with blackened fury and
flashes of knuckle-dragging stomp, THY ART IS MURDER exorcise the pangs of mortality and the pains of socio-political
trauma. It’s a reinvigoration and redefinition of a thriving subculture that has earned them a place in the Top 50 Most
Popular Metal Bands Right Now, According to the Internet, a list compiled by a popular metal blog (based on worldwide
page views) that puts THY ART IS MURDER among Metallica, Slipknot, Slayer, Megadeth, Ghost, and Iron Maiden. If
this is truly the soundtrack to the end of humanity, it’s music that should unite and empower extreme metal fans in all corners of the genre. This is underground music for the people, carrying the torch for a primal style that doesn’t die. As
New Noise declared, “few embrace the feel of the apocalypse so dearly and expertly… THY ART IS MURDER is clearly
at the head of the modern death metal pack [and] they are just getting better.”
