Australian extreme metal outfit To The Grave have dropped a NSFW, graphic video for their new single “Axe of Kindness.” The track is taken from their forthcoming effort, Director’s Cuts, out February 24th, 2023 via Unique Leader Records.
The group explains the track, which has a strong vegan message:
“Axe is a tongue-in-cheek horror concept in the vein of The Purge, we had a little fun going ultra-violent on the idea of someone who’s had enough with a world full of apathy and plans to exact vengeance for animals by going door-to-door with a fire axe.”
The band comments on the new record:
“This is the refinement of our combined musical tastes, fuelled by our sadness and anger at the state of the world. We made the music we wanted to make without really considering how it would fit into any little genre boxes, because we knew if we loved it completely then everyone else would too. These songs are hard and heavy without being technical just for the sake of it.”
