Witch County nefarious frights DEVILMENT ' led by vehement frontman Dani Filth, will release their forthcoming masterpiece Devilment II: The Mephisto Waltzes on November 18 via Nuclear Blast Entertainment. Today, the band reveal the first track from the album, entitled 'Under The Thunder'.
Watch the lyric video here: https://youtu.be/B2P-FtGAayw
Frontman Dani Filth recounts the meaning of the song:
"A forced hand. A warning. A call to arms. Retribution undertaken by a wronged nation double-crossed on the land of their noble forbears. The song is a powerful metaphor for justified retaliation, on a common enemy and the onset of the storm."

Dani's crew have meticulously pieced together a second blood-spattered batch of deranged anthems that brings vastly more colour, intensity and lyrical versatility to this band's spectral palate. The second DEVILMENT record makes no splintered bones about its nefarious intent, offering a bewildering torrent of disparate and demented ideas and delivering them with refined, ultra-gothic panache and several jolting doses of Dani's trademark verbal subterfuge. Assisted by long-time collaborators Lauren Francis (keys and vocals), Colin Parks (guitar), Nick Johnson (bass) and new drummer Matt Alston, Dani has arrived at the telling moment where DEVILMENT become a genuine force to be reckoned with.
DEVILMENT recently announced an extensive UK tour which will commence this December.
The run will kick off on December 6th in Colchester, taking the band through 11 UK cities ' before wrapping up at eminent Southampton venue, the Engine Rooms on December 19th.
