Australian deathcore band To The Grave have revealed an August 01st release date for their new EP “STILL” via Unique Leader Records. The staunch animal rights activists launched a video for the song “Show Them The Bodies” from it tonight, June 02nd. The track is third single to arrive ahead of the EP thus far. The EP’s title plays off the group’s latest album “Everyone’s A Murder“, with the artwork adapting it to “Everyone’s STILL A Murderer“.
Bassist/vocalist Matt Clarke said of this newest single:
‘When we were starting on the songs for ‘Everyone’s A Murderer‘ and ‘Still‘, we pulled out a bunch of older material from the vault to see if there was any gold we’d overlooked. We always loved the energy of this one and even used an earlier version for a live intro on previous tours. In the studio, we tweaked it a lot and gave it its own flavour. Now it’s short and sweet, and violent – it’s fun being this direct sometimes.”
As for the EP, he added:
“The songs on ‘Still‘ didn’t fit the vibe of the rest of the ‘Everyone’s A Murderer‘ album, but we couldn’t let these ones go. A lot of them are us trying new directions or flavours to see how far we can stretch the sound of this band, we hope the fans enjoy it as much as we did writing and recording them. Songs like ‘Forced Diet Reassignment‘ and ‘Sawed Off‘ are so strong live and have really found their place in our set on recent tours. It’s exciting to be able to just do whatever we want and see what sticks. And capping it all off with a Cannibal Corpse cover was more of that same approach – doing what we want just for the fun of it.”
