A KILLER’S CONFESSION have announced a new album!

Titled Victim 1, the upcoming album from the American nu-metal band is the follow-up to 2021’s Remember, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via MNRK Heavy.

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist and band mastermind Waylon Reavis says, “Victim 1 might possibly be my favorite album I’ve ever been a part of. AKC stepped completely out of the box to write Victim 1. I brought in new producers [Dusty Boles and Evan McKeever] to help rebrand the sound of the band. I took most of last year off and did not tour in order to write this album.

The focus I found during this time really helped me flesh out the new sound and the direction in which I wanted to go. Personally, I feel that this is the true sound of A KILLER’S CONFESSION, and in my honest opinion, I feel like this is the first true AKC album. Every time I listen to the album, I sit back and smile, because I’ve never had that feeling before with AKC. The tone and atmosphere is completely different from anything we’ve ever done.”

Alongside the announcement of the new song, the band have released a brand new song from the upcoming album; Filth. Speaking about the new song, Reavis says, “Filth is a personal favorite. It’s another chapter in the lore of Victim 1. I personally love the upbeat feel of this song, especially when playing it live. If you have caught an AKC show in the last few months, you have been lucky enough to hear it already. I feel our production team of Dusty Boles and Evan McKeever really helped me knock this one out of the park. The song takes you on a journey through the killer’s eyes.”
