Thy Art Is Murder announce new album Human Target

Delving into an array of topics challenging the modern world, Human Target acts as Thy Art Is Murder’s first studio offering since 2017’s Dear Desolation, which debuted within the Top 5 of Australia’s ARIA charts. Exploring concepts such as organ harvesting, social media and pharmaceutical addiction across its ten track runtime, Human Target is slated for release via Human Warfare on Friday July 26. Check out the gorey album artwork painted by Eliran Kantor below.

 

 

Thy Art Is Murder have also unveiled the music video for the album’s title track ‘Human Target.’ In an accompanying statement, guitarist Andy Marsh says “Human Target was the last song written for the album as I felt we lacked an opening track to set the mood and provide the impact for what was to come. Human organ harvesting had been brought to my attention as a serious matter that wasn’t receiving much coverage (or not enough for me to hear about it) and I thought the issue required more scrutiny and awareness. To distill the metaphors of proletariat subjugation down to the visceral injustice of taking away the engines of life, seemed to be a powerful atmosphere to open the record.”
