Asphyx release new music video for ‘Candiru’

Dutch death/doom metal maestros ASPHYX have released a brand new music video!

The video, for the track Candiru, is taken from the band’s latest studio record Incoming Death which was released back in September. The video was shot during the band’s recent appearance at Turock Open Air Festival in Essen, Germany and was edited by Maurice Swinkels/Younique Film (EXODUS, KATAKYLSM, etc.). Speaking about the video and track, vocalist Martin van Drunen says, “Candiru is a no-nonsense, non-compromising 3 riff containing fast ASPHYX Death Metal track. A gory story about a revolting little fish from the Amazon that can nest itself in human genitals to suck blood after it got there via the urine stream. Only removable through amputation, so be careful there were you relieve yourselves folks! The video was recorded at this year’s Turock Open Air in Essen Germany, which we can almost call our second home. The very first time we ever rammed that tune on stage. We had a ball, as always, so hope you do too while watching this.”
