Absent In Body has dropped a music video for their new track “Sarin.” AIB is made up of Amenra’s Mathieu J. Vandekerckhove and Colin H. Van Eeckhout on guitar and vocals/bass respectively, Neurosis vocalist/guitarist Scott Kelly and Cavalera Conspiracy, ex-Sepultura drummer Iggor Cavalera. Watch the video down below. This is the second single to be shared from the group’s forthcoming debut album Plague God, which is due March 25th on Relapse Records.

Van Eeckhout talked about the inspiration for the track:

“Humanity its demise as a self fulfilling prophecy. The onslaught of information is not manageable for any empathic organism in this Universe. Driven into a corner, overtaken by our own self-destructive ways, Nature sends its beasts to settle things for good.

Restore balance by fire, water, earth and wind. Until eventually mankind will eat itself. Facts are no longer facts, and Science appears to have been driven from its throne, by new gods of unintelligible information. The story told by a new breed, all awhile Sarin will sleep in your lungs tonight.

‘The scream is mine. So loud.
But noone came. A funeral pyre.
Flames so high they burn the sky.
The awful pain.
Everywhere. On Gods domain.
The coming rain. It will swallow everything.’

“Sarin” is also a direct hommage to Dwid Hellion, who has written a song with Integrity of the same title, without him we would never have been introduced to one another, and AIB would never have seen the light of day.”
