Eidola announce new album ‘Eviscerate’
EIDOLA have announced a new album!
Titled Eviscerate, the upcoming album from the Salt Lake City-based post-hardcore/progressive metal band is the follow-up to 2021’s The Architect, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Blue Swan/Rise Records.
For the upcoming album, the band brought Mike Sahm on as the producer for their 13 song album. “We spent our downtime completely immersed in our desire to push our own limitations,” says guitarist/vocalist Andrew Michael Wells. “We wanted to take the concepts of this project and double down on the things we felt were most ambitious and exploratory. While keeping our core sound, we chose to experiment with a new producer, seven string guitars, deep drop tunings, and lean into the violence and loss in our lyrical content.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, EIDOLA have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; No Weapon Formed Shall Prosper. Speaking about the new song, and its accompanying music video, Wells says, “it is a song that explores the depths of societal division and loathing, a song crying out to every lost soul in the overwhelming chaos of modernity. Inspired by watching a culture, brainwashed by social media, descend into depravity, deception, self-aggrandizement, and hate. A commentary on what it’s like to witness people tear each other apart from the inside out.
The video for No Weapon Formed Shall Prosper was a concept I envisioned from a dream I had where I was sword-fighting a sleep paralysis demon, phasing in and out of a meditation state. Mason Wright, Brian Caudill, and DC at Blvckbox Studios in Las Vegas were incredible to work with. We love and respect their work ethic as it’s identical to our own. They took my vision and stopped at nothing to turn it into reality. The hours were long, the scenes were hard, but in the end it paid off and we ended up with something we are incredibly proud of.”
