Thy Art Is Murder Streaming First 'Holy War' Trailer

Australia's Thy Art Is Murder is streaming the first in a series of trailers for "Holy War" which will be released, on June 30 via Nuclear Blast. The new album was produced and mixed by Will Putney (Suicide Silence, Exhumed, The Acacia Strain) and will be made available in various formats (digital, limited digipak and assorted color vinyl).

Check out now the trailer below.

Explains Thy Art Is Murder guitarist Andrew Marsh about the origins of the new album and its title:

"Late last year, we entered the studio in secret to create our follow up to 'Hate', free of expectation and public pressure. What we came out with was a reaction to things going on around the world that crawl under our skin, that make us feel sick to be alive. Musically, it is darker, faster and more technical than anything we've done in the past and it hits hard lyrically. We wrote about concerns of ours, real issues, hardships that people are facing around the world today. Of course, it wouldn't be a THY ART record if a lot of those affairs weren't rooted in religion somehow, and what better way to sum up the state of all things than by entitling our album 'Holy War'. This is our war on racism, homophobia, child abuse, animal cruelty and all evil born of religious immunity, indoctrination, and ignorance. It is ultimately a push for secularism and humanism. Without it, we will be left in the hands of mad men."
