NilExistence Release Official Video: “If Snakes Could Talk, My Words Would Slither”

Moravia, NY Death Metallers have released an official music video for “If Snakes Could Talk, My Words Would Slither,” a song from new album Existence in Revelation. The video shot and edited by David Royal. Take the plunge into madness below.
NilExistence released debut album Existence in Revelation on March 25. Purchase and/or Stream the beast at: https://nilexistence.bandcamp.com/album/existence-in-revelation
The album includes a 12-page booklet with artwork by Seth Siro Anton (Septicflesh), and was mixed/mastered at Hertz Studio (Behemoth, Decapitated, Vader)  by the Wiesławski brothers in Poland. A lyric video for new song “Primordial Transgression” can be viewed atthis location.

Drummer/vocalist Kyle Kratzer (ex-Disfigured Dead) had this to say about the album title and lyrical content:

“Existence In Revelation is based on the life experiences that have affected Dave Gruver (guitar/vocals) and myself during the writing period.  The idea behind the title comes from how I personally felt when in the midst of a darker period.  When one finds himself in a “revelation” type state, they have a few choices in which to handle the new information or realization they discovered;  they may take the newly acquired knowledge and expand upon their problem/life, take nothing from the experience and brush it off, or stay stuck in the revelation itself (which is the route explored on the album.)  As if in a bubble, one neither acts nor fails to act upon the new knowlegde, but instead remains within the revelation (bubble).  The lyrics are based upon what I saw and learned within this revelation.”

“Beware the Ides of March, for crushing killer death metal awaits!”

 – Metal Underground
 
“It doesn’t pander to trends or what’s hip in the scene, it’s just heavy from beginning to end, without compromise.”
 – Dead Rhetoric
 
“An aggressive and modern sound. Bestial with animal instincts!”
– Metal Zone 
 
“These guys are capable of real greatness.”
 – The Grim Tower
“Album is not only enjoyable but it stands out from the traditional run-of-the-mill local death metal band.”
 – qjukebox
“If you like brutal and extreme metal, then look no further.”
 – Arte Mortifica
