BLACK MAGNET - Finalizes Second Album; New Video Released

Midwestern (USA) industrial metal outfit Black Magnet has completed work on its second album, Body Prophecy, which is being finalized for release in 2022 via 20 Buck Spin. While details on Body Prophecy - the follow-up to the band’s well-received 2020-released debut LP, Hallucination Scene - are still shrouded in mystery, the band has issued a warning shot from the crushing album, through an intense official video for the track “Violent Mechanix”. The punishing visual work was directed and edited by Joe Casey, filmed by Beau Sparks, with visual effects by Will Acuña.

Black Magnet architect James Hammontree reveals: ""Violent Mechanix" was the first new song written after the release of the last album Hallucination Scene. It was an attempt to forge some new ideas for the music and use a beat I had never tried. Lyrically, the song is about the ailments of the body physically responding to the current state of the world, a theme that repeats throughout the album in different contexts. For the video, we built a machine to be fueled by human workers whose mouth-to-mouth contact gives the machine energy until its final implosion. This is one of many videos to come to accompany the singles from the upcoming album, Body Prophecy." Link
