Metal trailblazer Soulfly has released an animated music video for his new single “Filth Upon Filth.” The song is the band’s third single and the video for the song was created by Costin Chioreanu. The song will be separated from the upcoming Soulfly album Totem, set to be released August 5 via Nuclear Blast.
“Filth Upon Filth” begins with an explosive guitar riff and drum line and soon overlaps with a second riff. The video begins in a forest filled with trees that wake up and slowly move into an intense image that overlaps with a powerful guitar. Belted lyrics from vocalist and guitarist Max Calavera are menacing and paired with Zyon Calavera’s killer drums, the song brings forth a pace that makes one want to run through the wall head first.
Max Cavalera comments SOULFLY, “‘Filth Upon Filth’ is a song that was first released to Tribe last year. Costin has created an amazing, savage rendition of the song! This is a song made by Headbanger, for Headbangers!” A song made by a headbanger, for headbangers is a very accurate way to describe the riffs put forth by Cavalera.
The animation brought by Costin is second to none and the images are beautifully overlapping and constantly changing like a kaleidoscope throughout the video. The song breaks down into several well orchestrated guitar solos through the second half of the video with Calvera’s guitar wailing over the original riff.
