Six Feet Under Premiere New Single & Lyric Video "Mutilated Corpse In The Woods" From Upcoming New Album "Next To Die"

Veteran death metal band Six Feet Under have released “Mutilated Corpse In The Woods” as the latest single from their upcoming 15th studio album, “Next To Die.”

Longtime core members—and Cannibal Corpse alumni—Chris Barnes and Jack Owen continue to lead the group, with Owen offering some insight into the origins of this second advance single:

“This song started when my wife and I were in an antique store and she found an amber quartz pendant that had lines through the whole thing. I asked her what it was and she said it’s a Rutilated Quartz. Well, that’s all I needed for a title and some lyrical ideas. The chorus came easy. The verses were from a true crime show where a woman described being attacked by an assailant who tied her to a tree and slit her throat.

She couldn’t speak or scream. In real life she survived the attack, telling her story with a giant scar across her throat. In this song, unfortunately she did not survive… My killer buried her where she will never be found. I wrote the music from scratch around the lyrical ideas.”

“Next To Die” is set to arrive on April 24th via Metal Blade Records, and the band have already scheduled touring runs across both Europe and North America in support of it. Fans looking to catch them live on those treks can find the dates listed below.
