Belgian death metal juggernaut Mordkaul presented new video single ‘Shadowlord’, featuring James McIlroy

September 13, 2024 will see Belgian death metal act MORDKAUL unleash their forthcoming, new studio album “Feeding The Machine” via Massacre Records. Available as CD Digipak, Ltd. Vinyl LP and Digital formats, you can pre-order your album copy at: https://lnk.to/feedingthemachine

Following the previously-released track “They Burn”, MORDKAUL shared a music video for their latest single “Shadowlord”, featuring a guest guitar solo by James McIlroy (ex-Cradle Of Filth)! Frontman Tommy Goffin reveals:

“Based on the life of Marquis De Sade, the Shadowlord is a power hungry, lust driven and masochistic noble man that acts above the laws of men. Ever on the lookout for women to abuse in every possible way, he is fully corrupt and has no sinecure whatsoever. Eventually he will meet his timely death but will live on in the memories of mankind as the Shadowlord.

And here we dive into the moshpit again. Up-tempo drums and kick ass riffs are complemented by two insane solos after which the song pace drops with an integrated sample opening up into the ending chorus “Purgatory is where the Shadowlord is crowned”.”

MORDKAUL’s upcoming album rager “Feeding The Machine” was recorded in two parts. The first half of the album was recorded at Project Zero Studio in the summer of 2022, the second half at the legendary Galaxy Studios in the summer of 2023, while mixing and mastering was handled by Dan Swanö. The band’s new album will also feature guest appearances from such as James McIlroy (ex-Cradle Of Filth) and more.

Where the 2021 album “Dress Code: Blood” was heavily inspired by the iconic Swedish death metal sound of the 90’s, “Feeding The Machine” goes a step further than that. With wider influences of 90’s death metal acts like Morbid Angel and Death, “Feeding The Machine” hits even harder, and aims to elevate the band to new heights!
