Formed just two short years ago from the ashes of symphonic black metal act Massakren, Starkill's future is shockingly bright. The stunning new album, “Virus of the Mind”, was written, woodshedded, and fine-tuned over much of 2013. It's different from its predecessor, “Fires of Life”, insofar as it represents the group's songcraft here and now. The album will be released in the US on October 14th and in EU on October 20th, 2014.
Starkill have posted the second in a series of videos discussing their upcoming album, “Virus of the Mind”. Dubbed, “Creating the Virus”, the second of the videos can be found below.
Now with singer/songwriter Parker Jameson premiering clean vocals - check out “Winter Desolation”, “Skyward” and “Before Hope Fades” - Starkill enters a superlative realm, where reflection can be paired with aggression and emotion of song and lyric can take on new and unimaginable forms.
Tracklist:
1. Be Dead or Die
2. Winter Desolation
3. Breaking the Madness
4. Virus of the Mind
5. Skyward
6. Before Hope Fades
7. Into Destiny
