SOULFLY REVEAL NEW TRACK, ‘FILTH UPON FILTH’

8th July 2022 0 By Jon Deaux

Underground icon, extreme metal trailblazer, third world warrior, and leader of a diverse and dedicated tribe, Max Cavalera not only survives but thrives, blasting out riff after killer riff. The same spirit which launched SOULFLY in 1997 summons impossibly heavy noise to this day, throwing down ten slabs of monstrous music on the band’s twelfth album, Totem which is set for release via Nuclear Blast on August 5th.

Today, the band releases their third single, Filth Upon Filth. Watch the animated music video created by Costin Chioreanu below or check out the track on streaming platforms.

SOULFLY’s Max Cavalera comments, “Filth Upon Filth was the first track unleashed to the Tribe last year. Costin has created an amazing, savage rendition of the song! This is a song made by a Headbanger, for Headbangers!”[su_youtube url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN2JVMMoCpA”]

Talking about the album, SOULFLY’s Max Cavalera informs,

“Totem is a celebration of the spiritual nature. It was a 2-year journey writing with Zyon. This album is about all the joy, the fun and the anger in Metal.”[su_youtube url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0aA-W9Nnuw”]
