Immolation‘s “Attrition” has been given the distinction of being the second advance track from the death metal veterans’ twelfth studio album “Descent“. While that album’s April 10th remains a month away as of press time, the band have just launched an official video for the song which was directed by Robert Vigna.
“We are excited to release, ‘Attrition’, another new track from our upcoming album, ‘Descent‘. This song is a dark, powerful heavy track with plenty of intensity. ‘Attrition’ has a dismal, hopeless atmosphere…as it focuses on the senseless wars and battles for territory that mankind seems to constantly repeat, no matter what the cost.
The drum work by Steve Shalaty is a key component in this song as it emphasizes the overall emotion of the track, with not only a militant feel, but unique rhythmic cymbal work and other twists that bring the musical parts to life. ‘Attrition’ is a good example of the diverse nature of ‘Descent‘. A catchy, yet explosive track with all the Immolation elements. We hope you enjoy ‘Attrition’!”
