Suicide Silence release lyric video for new song, Don’t Die and catch them on Mayhem Fest

June 11, 2014

Suicide Silence have just released a lyric video for their heavy new track, “Don’t Die”. The song comes off their forthcoming album, “You Can’t Stop Us” which is set for a July 15th release in the US. “Suicide Silence have declared You Can’t Stop Me as their most impassioned, most committed, and most important release thus far. It’s a record they fought, bled, sweated and even cried to make happen. Consequently, it’s a record that must be heard. As Suicide Silence have found new life and empowerment in the compositions boiling within You Can’t Stop Me, so shall their increasingly strong army of supporters, both old and new, who share in that empowerment. If a rising heavy metal band can overcome a tragedy this triumphantly, this definitively, this absolutely, then surely there’s hope for us all.” Check out the lyric video here: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjrhcczyf8Y&feature=youtu.be] The band is looking forward to getting back out on the road as they return on the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Fest, set to begin on July 5th in San Bernardino, CA and end on August 10th in The [Read More]
