Thy Art is Murder are crusading towards a holy war

Posted by on June 29, 2015

Australian deathcore enthusiasts Thy Art is Murder just released their latest album Holy War via Nuclear Blast, which you can stream right now in its entirety, but the band still thinks they can get your attention in a more creative way by unveiling a music video for the title track “Holy War.”


Just like the controversial album cover previously intended to be used, the video features a rather vexed topic for many people, including the depiction of members of the terrorist group ISIS decapitating people, US military performing waterboarding and other forms of torture and, again, kids with bombs strapped on.

The band is on North American soil performing at the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival, which kicked off this past weekend  and will continue its trek at the following dates:
