With the release of their new full length studio record, Conformicide, less than two week away, Thrash Metal stalwarts HAVOK have partnered with Metal Injection to premiere their new music video for the track “Intention To Deceive” off the forthcoming album. The new track continues to display the band’s unwavering commitment to the indelible Thrash Metal ethos of diverting from the status quo and rejecting widespread corruption within the government and mainstream media. Fans can check out the new video exclusively on Metal Injection.
Meanwhile, HAVOK continue to tour extensively throughout North American and are currently on the “World Gone Mad” tour with the iconic Suicidal Tendencies and Crowbar. Following that run, the band will participate in a brief West Coast trek (w/Warbringer) before beginning their European dates.
Fans can now pre-order Conformicide at CM Distro ‘ Pledge Music ‘ iTunes ‘ Amazon ‘ Google Play
“In the shop for almost three years, HAVOK’s Conformicide is undoubtedly their Master of Puppets or Rust in Peace moment. True, the Denver-based rippers have bled out guts, brains, and cash on previous albums Unnatural Selection (2013), Time is Up (2011), and Burn (2009), but none of them compare to ear-destroying, mind-flaying Conformicide. Says vocalist/guitarist/founding member David Sanchez, “‘Conformicide is faster and way angrier than Unnatural Selection. On this album, the music is very layered and dynamic and the lyrics say a lot about the current state of the world.”
With Conformicide, HAVOK prove they’re undoubtedly thrash metal scions, ready for their time in the spotlight. “This band was essentially started as a nod to the old-school greats” Sanchez says. “When they all retire, HAVOK will be there to fill the thrash metal void. That’s why this band exists.”
