German brutal-surf-death-party metal band STILLBIRTH follow the carnage of "Baptized in Blood" with the even more bloodthirsty new single, "Sacrificial Slaughter". STILLBIRTH will unleash their forthcoming release Survival Protocol on October 31st via rising metal label Reigning Phoenix Music. The album is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed Homo Deus, which was released in 2023.
The band comments:
“'Sacrificial Slaughter' marks the next step in our journey through the Survival Protocol story. This track dives deep into the heart of ritualistic violence on an alien planet. After 'Baptized in Blood,' this is where things get even darker. We’re thrilled to share this chapter of the story – and trust us, it’s only getting more intense from here.”
Welcome to a world where humanity has fallen and the cult has risen. "Sacrificial Slaughter" tells the story of mankind’s descent into the barbaric times. Worshipping ancient alien gods through blood-soaked rituals and acts of unspeakable brutality.
As flesh is offered and souls are sold, a new cult rises from the ruins. The track is one part of the concept Album Survival Protocol and captures the horror of a species being revived through sacrificial slaughter. With massive riffs, pure aggression, and lyrics soaked in gore and dread, "Sacrificial Slaughter" is a brutal hymn to a world ruled by darkness.
Survival Protocol is a concept album that tells the story of an unknown hero surviving a nuclear apocalypse. The narrative began on the album Annihilation of Mankind and now reaches its conclusion on Survival Protocol. It picks up where Homo Deus left off: the true creator descends from the skies, and the epic battle for planetary dominance begins. Humanity is nearly wiped out, with a handful of survivors managing to escape into space. After a long journey, they discover a habitable planet and begin to colonize it. The events of this journey are told across the tracks of Survival Protocol.
