Australian deathcore force To The Grave have officially signed with BLKIIBLK, marking a new chapter for the vegan deathcore outfit. To celebrate the announcement, the band have released a brand-new single and music video titled “EYESTALK ABLATIONS.”
Frontman Dane Evans described the track as an evolution of the band’s sound while retaining the relentless aggression fans have come to expect.
“‘EYESTALK ABLATIONS‘ is a shotgun blast to the face: claustrophobic, heavy from front to back and not a second wasted on room to breathe. This track feels like the old version of TTG got dragged out the back and shot, then someone bagged up the bits and made a monster out of it with some parts of Lamb Of God and Cerebral Bore to make up what’s missing.”
The accompanying video was directed by Colin Jeffs, known for his work with Northlane and HEAVENSGATE. Evans praised the experience of filming the clip, noting that for once he wasn’t the one covered in fake blood.
“The video might be the most fun we’ve ever had filming and it’s the first one I wasn’t the one covered in fake blood, for once everyone else got to be that guy. It was a blast. Massive thank you to Colin Jeffs for pulling no punches on a really cool concept and QLD police for not being able to find the place.”
Regarding the band’s new partnership with BLKIIBLK, Evans expressed excitement about the opportunities ahead.
“Being signed to BLKIIBLK is another clean, exciting gear in the meatgrinder and we couldn’t be more stoked to be working with the team there. Can’t overstate how cool it is to be locked in with the legends there, alongside some bands and names we’ve looked up to most of our lives. Lots of big bullets loaded into this thing, very excited to see the damage they’re capable of.”
