W.E.B. Posts New Music Video Online
Athens-based metal unit W.E.B. today unveils their brand new video for “Murder Of Crows,” taken off the full-length Colosseum that was released last year via Metal Blade Records.
Comments guitarist/vocalist Sakis Prekas, "’Murder of Crows‘ is about the loneliness of death, the greatest mystery of what the end of life‘s circle feels like and the emotions surrounding the very last moments of life. The concept of death in W.E.B. lyrics is not new, only this time, the inspiration was born after watching the ’Sons of Anarchy‘ series and the way life, death and morals were perceived in there by a culture that was yet unknown to me. Hence there are clearly several lyric references to the series, it is strongly filtered by W.E.B.‘s music style combining melody, brutality and symphony elements. The video of ’Murder of Crows‘ incorporates much of the band‘s stage presence accompanied by the roles of Thanatos, the subconscious and the madness of reality."
W.E.B. will be supporting Fleshgod Apocalypse and Omnium Gatherum on their upcoming European tour in January. Please see below for dates.

Suicide Silence Unveils New NSFW Video
Suicide Silence has shared a NSFW music video for new single "Capable Of Violence." Blood? Check. Gore? Check. Guts? Check. Guitars? Check. Severed heads? Check. The four-and-a-half-minute slasher film is perfect for a Halloween scream.
"What would it take to make you retaliate?", the band asks rhetorically. "Even further, what would make you take a life? Is there ever an appropriate time for violence? We live in a world where these questions are unfortunately answered by many all of the time. An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind, yet humanity continues to crave death and destruction. Are you 'Capable of Violence?'"
As for the blood and guts visual?
"This might be the most Suicide Silence video EVER," the group offers. "We hope you enjoy it. Happy Halloween everyone. Heavy as possible."
Suicide Silence will drop their seventh studio album, Remember… You Must Die, which was produced and mixed by Taylor Young (NAILS, Xibalba, Vitriol…), in the first quarter of 2023. Stay tuned for more — but maybe with less blood and gore than the 'Capable of Violence' video. More...
