Frozen Soul is now streaming their new single "Morbid Effigy" featuring the talents of Dying Fetus frontman John Gallagher. Of course the single is as heavy as a bag of hammers, but let's talk about this music video directed by Brendan McGowan for a second. The switch between "cheery dude celebrating the holidays and building a snowman" and "turns out 'cheery dude' is an axe murderer and the 'snowman' is actually a fleshman" is hilariously campy and perfectly death metal.
"'Morbid Effigy' is straight to the point death metal that’s exactly what it should be — fun," said the band in a statement. "This song is everything Frozen Soul is, and we are so excited for everyone to hear it! The video is truly a work of art, literally. Have you ever wondered what a snowman would look like made out of guts?"
Frozen Soul will release their new record Glacial Domination on May 19. Glacial Domination was produced by Trivium frontman Matthew Heafy and co-produced by Daniel Schmuck, and is available for pre-order here.
