Ape Vermin Shares New Lyric Video "Awakened"

North Carolina’s progressive sludge metal juggernaut Ape Vermin has released a brand-new lyric video for "Awakened," the eighth and most explosive track from their latest album, "Andromedas Colossus." The video was crafted by Kenji Tsunami of Tsunami Films, known for his visual work as well as his role as bassist for Narcotic Wasteland.

?"Awakened" stands as the album’s most ferocious statement, a collision of sludge, thrash, and apocalyptic storytelling delivered with the band’s signature weight and intensity. According to guitarist/vocalist Brett Lee, the track represents a pivotal moment in the album’s narrative:

"We’re back, and we’re making up for lost time. Hell has come back to life. The Colossus is awake."

Kenji Tsunami’s visual interpretation amplifies the track’s themes of cosmic destruction, ancient forces, and the return of something colossal and malevolent. The lyric video mirrors the album’s overarching atmosphere, dark, prophetic, and unrelenting, while giving fans a deeper look into the world Ape Vermin has constructed across the record.
