☢️Thrash Metal Outfit NUKEM Unleashes Lyric Video for Death-Inspired New Single, "Torture, Murder, Mutilate!"☢️
California has always been fertile ground for thrash metal, leading the charge with some of the genre's most legendary acts. San Diego's NUKEM follows in the footsteps of thrash metal's founding fathers, producing the kind of time-tested, neck-breaking thrash that invokes deep nostalgia while still sounding fresh and modern.
The thrashers are now unleashing a vicious new single, "Torture, Murder, Mutilate!" which was inspired by the band Death. The track can be found along with a lyric video at THIS LOCATION.
NUKEM vocalist and guitarist Steve Brogden comments, "'Torture, Murder, Mutilate!' We crafted this track after wrapping up our tour with Death To All & Suffocation, featuring legendary Death members Gene Hoglan, Steve DiGorgio & Bobby Koelble, alongside Max Phelps shredding through the space once ruled by Chuck. This track is deeply rooted in Death's influence, having had the privilege of their music as our nightly soundtrack, it definitely left its mark on us. Blending a touch of death metal with our Nukem style of Thrash, it made for a pretty brutal track!”
The track is taken from the band's forthcoming sophomore full-length, 'The Grave Remains,' which is due on April 10, 2026 via Redefining Darkness. Pre-orders are now live in the U.S. HERE and the rest of the world HERE.
