It is one of these songs that makes both musicians and audience hold their breath: Today, Italian orchestral death metallers FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE release a bass playthrough for one of their most demanding songs – “The Fool”, a both epic and brute masterpiece taken from FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE‘s 2016 album “King”.
Check out the video here:
The band states,“‘The Fool’ is one of our most popular songs and, at the same time, one of the most challenging to perform live. That’s why we chose it for the second installment in our series of playthrough videos. Have fun watching it!”
After playing an extensive South American tour with their comrades in SEPTICFLESH plus a couple of Japanese shows in late 2017, it’s time for Italian symphonic death metallers FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE to hit European stages once more in March/April 2018. These will also be the band’s first European appearances led by new (and old) frontman Francesco Paoli, who left his drummer’s throne after Tommaso Riccardi‘s departure last year. Full dates below.
Francesco commented: “We’ll be back again, stronger than ever, for another run across Europe! We’ve prepared a killer, brand new show with a… very special surprise, that will be performed live for the first time on this tour. You’d better not miss it! See you on the road! \m/”

Symphonic death metal kings FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE will release their fourth studio album “King” on February 5th, 2016 via Nuclear Blast. To kick off 2016 with a bang, the Perugia, Italy-based group will release the first single from the new opus on January 1st, 2016, entitled ‘The Fool’. Be prepared for some excellent brutality!
The band commented: “‘The Fool’ is one of the craziest songs of the album and we felt like it was a perfect way to let people approach our new work. It’s a song without compromises and because of the character it is about, we had the chance to get into a profound matter that concerns us all.”
The cover artwork of the single was created by Mark Riddick.
