Decapitated's new album Anticult is out tomorrow (July 7) via Nuclear Blast. The Polish oufit have offered two previews of the upcoming record so far: lead scorcher "Never," as well as the thunderous "Earth Scar" (which just got an occult-inspired music video). With the LP's release imminent, the band is letting go of another new track. This one's called "One Eyed Nation," and you can stream it below.
Speaking with Alternative Press today, Decapitated guitarist Wacław "Vogg" Kiełtyka described "One Eyed Nation" as a song inspired by his lifelong love of grooves from across the musical spectrum. "I'm a big fan of Lauryn Hill; it's not metal, of course, it's more soul music, but the groove the musicians have on their albums is unbelievable," he said, "but if I talk about my inspiration for making groovy riffs, I would say that Pantera was the band — they were the most heavy, groovy band on the planet for me, always."
As previously reported, Decapitated will tour behind Anticult this fall. That North American trek, which begins August 20 in Pittsburgh, features support from Thy Art Is Murder, Fallujah and Ghost Bath.
