Australia’s premiere incendiary musical export, THY ART IS MURDER, will release their new album Dear Desolation on August 18th via Nuclear Blast Entertainment. Today, the band has released their first studio trailer detailing the making of the album, here. Check out the music video for the first single, "Slaves Beyond Death", here. Dear Desolation was produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Will Putney at Graphic Nature Audio in Belleville, NJ. Artwork was created by Eliran Kantor (HATEBREED, TESTAMENT, ICED EARTH, SODOM). "I feel the strongest I've ever felt going into a record," recently commented vocalist C.J. McMahon. "Coming back to the fold of our band has reinvigorated me. I missed my brothers, touring, and of course all our dedicated fans around the world who have always given us their all." "This new record is going to shape our future," McMahon added "We gave it everything we could and then some. In the past, I was the weakest link and now that I have re-built myself, we are stronger than ever and nothing can stand in our way."
