August 12th is tomorrow which means The Acacia Strain, Thy Art Is Murder, Fit For An Autopsy split might as well be here! The hype is real. The release will be known as “The Depression Sessions” and will be launched through the mighty Nuclear Blast Entertainment. The split was recorded in December of last year at Graphic Nature Audio in New Jersey. That being the case, Thy Art Is Murder still had CJ McMahon as their vocalist at the time.

The Depression Sessions comes out tomorrow! Hope you enjoy it!
In December of 2015, three bands with three different stylistic approaches to aggressive music, but a common outlook on the world, came together to create a collective piece of work – The Depression Sessions. Those three bands were THY ART IS MURDER, THE ACACIA STRAIN and FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY and on August 12, Nuclear Blast Entertainment will release the results of this experience both digitally and on limited edition vinyl.
Today, the lyric video for the song “Flatlining” by FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY can be viewed here.
“This was a challenging experience for me,” commented producer and FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY guitarist Will Putney. “Recording three bands at once, one of them being your own is a very intense thing. Lots of coffee, lots of headaches, but a rewarding end result.”
Putney continues:
“With ‘Flatlining’ we went a little more melodic and moody to balance out the full on aggression of the other songs on the split. It was fun to try some new tricks. NINE INCH NAILS is a collective band favorite, and I loved how ‘The Perfect Drug’ translates so well with our style, so that was an obvious cover choice for the band. Hope you like it!”
