Kassogtha release new music video for ‘Venom’

KASSOGTHA have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Venom, the brand new single from the Swiss progressive death metal band and gives a further glimpse into the band’s upcoming new album, rEvolve, which is expected to be released later this year.

The new single is the follow-up to previous singles The Infinite, Before I Vanish and Drown, which were released in June, April and March this year respectively.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist Stephany says, “Venom is about helplessness and self-hatred, when nothing is controllable anymore, when we’ve decided to surrender to the poison controlling all our behaviours. The song tells of wanting to abandon ourselves to another reality, to forget the present, letting the destructive forces in our life settle in, deliberately. All this while realising that it’s wrong, and hating ourselves for letting it happen.

To musically match the darkness of the lyrics, Venom relies on its dark and heavy atmosphere in place of instrumental technicality. Ultimately, the song is a mix of all our childhood influences, channelling the angry and sombre attitudes of the likes of KORN and SLIPKNOT (Yes, we are 90’s kids).”
