TO THE GRAVE Unleashes New Album 'Everyone’s A Murderer' Alongside Blistering Single "Made In Aus"

Australian deathcore juggernauts To The Grave have released their third full-length album, 'Everyone’s A Murderer,' today via Unique Leader Records. The album drops alongside their incendiary new single "Made In Aus," a track that exemplifies the band’s unrelenting power and commitment to exposing harsh truths. Stream the full album now HERE and watch the official music video for the "Made In Aus" below.

"Made In Aus" is a visceral declaration, a sonic battlefield where the band's fury is unleashed through brutal riffs and their signature, unflinching lyrics.“Wall to wall chaos in this one. Once you start caring about animals, people you thought were good-hearted will show true colours and defend violence they could never commit with their own hands,” shares vocalist Dane Evans on the new single.

'Everyone’s A Murderer' is To The Grave’s most intense offering yet, both sonically and thematically. The album confronts societal and environmental atrocities with the band’s signature blend of deathcore brutality, giving voice to the voiceless through a sound that is as punishing as it is purposeful.

Providing further insight on the new album, Evans shares

"For this record my aim was to speak through the faceless activists that fight for animals, for those living in vystopia feeling alone and helpless in a world that will fight tooth and nail to defend the animal holocaust. Due to it being illegal to rescue farmed animals from abuse these activists must stay silent about it to avoid having their own freedom taken.

It wasn't an easy task, it's never going to do justice to the horrors animals go through every day by the millions in cold, dark sheds around the world or to those that have witnessed it and are doing everything they can to put an end to it. There's no words, no lyrics and no music that can describe the violence or bring back the lives stolen by human hands so this is for them.

Our idea for this album evolved so much before it started but we knew we wanted something that sounded classic, like it was from a different decade entirely. It had to have all the elements that brought us all towards deathcore all those years ago combined with all the modern touches you'd find in the recent TTG material, all whilst trying to do something new and step outside our comfort zone in the process.

It was cool to work with the new lineup on the gritty details like production, tones and getting the energy of the drums down. Once the album was in a listenable state these guys really gave it all personality and brought everything to the table to shape this new sound.

We're very critical of ourselves as artists and have made music in the past that for whatever reason we haven't loved. With that in mind I think the overall goal with this record was to make something that regardless of what anyone else thought, we were proud of and I'm happy that we all had that shared vision in mind.

We probably had the most fun making this record that we've ever had and it felt liberating to be able to make something that we liked. It felt like starting the band from new again and only having the pressure of wanting to write cool shit.

The singles are tough as fuck and I think do a good job of representing the blunt force approach on the album leaving a tonne of surprises in the sharps bin for when people pick it up on release day. That should make sense when it drops."

To The Grave’s release of 'Everyone’s A Murderer' is just the beginning. The band is set to dominate stages worldwide, starting tonight with a very special album release show at Stay Gold in Melbourne with support from No Life (NZ) & Identity Error and Saturday, followed by a second album release show tomorrow at The Lansdowne with support from No Life (NZ) & Facecutter in Sydney. They will then hit the US in September and October supporting deathcore legends Oceano. After that, they will join Veil of Maya, Signs Of The Swarm, and Varials for the Faces of Death Tour across the UK and Europe in October and November. They then return to Australia for a series of sold-out shows with Lorna Shore and Bodysnatcher in 2025. For further info and tickets head to tothegraveau.com

ABOUT TO THE GRAVE

One of Australia’s most uncompromising bands, To The Grave garnered international success with their 2019 debut album 'Global Warning'. The caustic five piece have continued to collect international success, with 2021’s follow-up 'Epilogue', a re-issue of 'Global Warning' with bonus tracks, their 2023 album, 'Director's Cuts' along with it's subsequent Deluxe release, which featured a new collection of tracks on the 'Offcuts' EP solidifying their position as “one of the country's heaviest exports.” (Revolver).

To The Grave have steadily built an audience in the underground, accumulating more than 11 million Spotify streams, racking up over 5.4 million YouTube views, all whilst decimating live audiences alongside Parkway Drive, Polaris, Cattle Decapitation, Thy Art Is Murder, Shadow of Intent, Angelmaker, Enterprise Earth, Vulvodynia and Alpha Wolf.

Now, following a sold-out national headline tour in 2022, global critical acclaim for the release of 'Director's Cuts' and it's Deluxe release, featuring the 'Offcuts' EP and plenty of upcoming tours, the band are more focused than ever.

 

To The Grave lyrically expose a societal and environmental hell on earth whilst pushing the boundaries of accessible extremity, full of barbed hooks, thick with atmosphere and drenched in groove. Razor-sharp guitars played with an exploratory approach - blending everything from whammy pedal squeaks and chiming cleans to death metal chainsaw tones - are entwined with live drums to give a level of dynamism that musically sets this band apart from the extreme metal pack, yet they maintain the weight of the heaviest bands today. Vocalist Dane Evans commands a multifaceted performance, bursting with vocal energy from throat-ripping dissonant screeches to low end gutturals.

To The Grave Drop Music Video For Brand New Track "BURN YOUR LOCAL BUTCHER"

Australian deathcore powerhouse and ardent animal rights activists, To The Grave have dropped brand new track, "Burn Your Local Butcher" today, along with an accompanying music video. An obnoxiously heavy display of the ferocious, no-punches-pulled, modern deathcore the band are rapidly becoming famed for, "Burn Your Local Butcher" is the second track to be released from the band's upcoming new album, 'Everyone's A Murderer,' scheduled for release on August 30th via Unique Leader Records. Pre-Save HERE

Stream “Burn Your Local ButcherHERE and watch the official music video Below

To The Grave vocalist, Dane Evans explains

"For this you'll need:

A glass bottle

Any flammable (or combustible) liquid (alcoholic drinks with a higher percentage of alcohol can also work)

A rug or a towel

First, take the glass bottle and pour your flammable liquid there.

Take the towel, twist it to the size that fits into the bottle, then put it into the bottle, making sure the larger part of the towel is outside the bottle, not inside, otherwise you risk activating it instantly when you burn the towel.

(optional) put some of the flammable liquid on the towel

Now, when you want to use it, light the towel on fire, and try throwing the molotov cocktail as soon as possible after that."

Everyone's A Murderer’, the band's upcoming third full-length album, promises to be To The Grave's heaviest and most evolved offering yet, both sonically and thematically. The album attacks societal and environmental themes with the relentless intensity the band are known for, giving voice to the voiceless via their unique, signature blend of brutally impactful deathcore.

A Night In Texas Releases New Album 'Digital Apocalypse' + "Mechanized Genocide" feat. Dane Evans of To The Grave Visualizer via Unique Leader Records

A Night In Texas has dropped their new album 'Digital Apocalypse' via Unique Leader Records and a new visualizer for track "Mechanized Genocide" featuring Dane Evans of To The Grave. Leading up to today, the band has shared "Apex Of Agony", "Welcome To The Gulag", and their latest banger, "Death Protocol". Speaking about the album, the band shares:

'Digital Apocalypse' is the FINAL form of A Night In Texas. This release represents the culmination of a tumultuous and challenging creativity endeavor for the band over the last 2 years.

In essence, 'Digital Apocalypse' paints the picture of a grim and pragmatic society that has pigeonholed itself into a redundant and counterproductive existence. This record explores themes related to the complacent struggle between efficiency and self-sabotage, the enslavement of mankind by artificial intelligence and the potential malevolence lurking in our not-too-distant future.

'Digital Apocalypse' is available now on all streaming platforms at the link here, and be sure to watch the "Mechanized Genocidevisualizer below.

To The Grave Announce New Album 'Everyone's A Murderer'; Drop Video For New Single "Dead Wrong"

Australian deathcore powerhouse and ardent animal rights activists, To The Grave have announced their highly anticipated new album today. Titled 'Everyone's A Murderer,' the band's third full length album is scheduled for release on August 30th via Unique Leader Records. Pre-Save HERE

Unleashed alongside the album news is their bludgeoning first single, "Dead Wrong," accompanied by an intense official music video. Stream “Dead WrongHERE and watch the official music video below

Speaking on the band’s first offering from this next chapter, To The Grave’s incendiary vocalist, Dane Evans shares

"Two solos from the dogs and hard riffs, we knew this had to be a single as soon as we made it. Getting Mike on it was a must after we fell in love with Empty Cages listening to their record on tour in the states and he killed it. The chorus for this one really pulled through and stitched it all together, for a while we didn't know what was going to go there and tried a few things but this was the first attempt at this style on the album and that take made the record."

Everyone's A Murderer’ promises to be To The Grave's heaviest and most evolved offering yet, both sonically and thematically. The album attacks societal and environmental themes with the relentless intensity the band are known for, giving voice to the voiceless via their unique, signature blend of brutally impactful deathcore.

TO THE GRAVE Release New 'Offcuts' EP And 'Director's Cuts' Deluxe

t's release day for Australian deathcore juggernauts and avid animal rights campaigners, To The Grave, who have officially unleashed their new digital EP ‘Offcuts’ along with the deluxe edition of latest album ‘Director’s Cuts’.

‘Offcuts’ is available now as a digital-only EP featuring 6 brand new songs plus the band’s cover of Enter Shikari’s “Anesthetist” which is only available on the digital EP release. These new tracks are also included on the expansive deluxe edition ‘Director’s Cuts (Deluxe)’, out today as a double disc, gatefold vinyl and on CD. Listen to both on streaming and order physical copiesHERE. Watch the full 'Offcuts' EP visualizer stream below.

Speaking on their new release, the band share:

"OFFCUTS is a collection of songs we had gotten to the finish line when creating Director's Cuts last year that we felt didn't quite match the grit of the album and had more of a fun approach in parts. We pulled them out of the album sequence and added a couple of other extras we'd been wanting to experiment with for a while. We're glad we found a way to rescue these from the cutting room floor, they were some of our favorites from the album process and we're very excited to share them with everyone now."

To The Grave are one of the most uncompromising and outspoken bands in the deathcore scene today. Hailing from Sydney, Australia, they combine crushing riffs, blast beats and guttural vocals with a strong sense of social justice and animal rights activism.

They then released ‘Director’s Cuts’ earlier this year, a groundbreaking album that pushed the boundaries of deathcore with cinematic, horror movie inspired music videos and diverse soundscapes. The album spawned singles "Red Dot Sight", "Axe Of Kindness", "Cut Off The Head" and "Found Footage" the music videos for which have racked up 420,000 views on YouTube between them with the album hitting 2.68 million streams and counting across streaming platforms.

TO THE GRAVE - New Track 'Dead Skin Ski Mask'

Australian deathcore juggernauts and avid animal rights campaigners, To The Grave are back with another crushing new track - "Dead Skin Ski Mask". Stream the new track HERE and watch the accompanying video below.

Both will be released on Friday, September 15th. Pre-save HERE

Speaking on his band's latest serving of no-punches-pulled brutality, vocalist Dane Evans shares

"Deadskin Skimask is one of my favourites from the whole of 'Director's Cuts' and 'Offcuts', this song almost ended up on the album until we realized it sucked and needed to take another run at it. What you hear now is the result of us trying to save it and I ended up pretty stoked on it.

"Something about it has given me Slipknot vibes all the way through this track, even the breakdown.

Straight up what I feel is our most violently-written song to date and I think it'll go off live.

Our good friend Jake kills his feature on this and it was cool to get to sample Pearl, go watch that movie."

ABOUT TO THE GRAVE

One of Australia’s most uncompromising bands, To The Grave released 'Director's Cuts', their heaviest album to date both sonically and thematically, in February of this year to mass acclaim. Since the release of their 2019 debut album 'Global Warning', the caustic five piece have garnered international success, with 2021’s follow-up 'Epilogue', a re-issue of 'Global Warning' with bonus tracks, solidifying their position as “one of the country's heaviest exports.” (Revolver).

To The Grave have steadily built an audience in the underground, accumulating more than 11 million Spotify streams, racking up over 5.4 million YouTube views, all whilst decimating live audiences alongside Parkway Drive, Polaris, Cattle Decapitation, Thy Art Is Murder, Shadow of Intent, Angelmaker, Enterprise Earth, Vulvodynia and Alpha Wolf.

Now, following a sold-out national headline tour in 2022, global critical acclaim for the release of 'Director's Cuts', a new EP and plenty of touring for the remainder of 2023, the band are more focused than ever.

Australian deathcore juggernauts and avid animal rights campaigners, To The Grave have announced their new EP ‘Offcuts’ today. The EP will be available on Friday, September 15th as a digital only release and will feature 6 new songs along with To The Grave's cover of Enter Shikari's hit single "Anesthetist". Pre-save HERE

The 6 new tracks will also appear as part of 'Director's Cuts (Deluxe)', also announced today. A double, deluxe edition of the band's groundbreaking album ‘Director’s Cuts’, which came out earlier this year via Unique Leader Records. . 'Director's Cuts (Deluxe)' will also drop on Friday, September 15th, and will be will be available as a double disc, gatefold vinyl and on CD with pre-order bundles available now HERE.

To celebrate the announcement, the band have also unleashed their new single and accompanying music video, “Shock Tactics [1000v]”. In keeping with To The Grave's ethos, the video shines a stark and chilling light on the gross mistreatment of animals farmed for food. Whilst the video is censored, some viewers may find it's contents disturbing. Stream the track HEREand watch the music video below.

Speaking on the release of their new single and EP, To The Grave share

"Shock Tactics is the first single from our new EP Offcuts, a collection of songs scavenged off the cutting room floor of our Director's Cuts album. This release brings together the songs that we felt were out of place in the sequence of the album but that we still loved and we’re very pleased to be able to finally release them out into the world.

We’ll also be presenting the EP and the album together on vinyl and CD for the Director’s Cuts: Deluxe Edition, showcasing the full scope of the material we originally created for the album.

We make no apologies for the graphic nature of the lyrics and accompanying video for this song. This was not staged or recreated, this is real footage of standard meat industry practices - the use of toxic gas to suffocate animals before cutting their throats. We have used footage from an Australian slaughterhouse because this violence is occurring in our backyard, but it is happening in yours too."

To The Grave are one of the most uncompromising and outspoken bands in the deathcore scene today. Hailing from Sydney, Australia, they combine crushing riffs, blast beats and guttural vocals with a strong sense of social justice and animal rights activism. They released their debut album ‘Global Warning’ in 2019, which received praise from fans and critics alike for its ferocity and honesty. They followed it up with ‘Epilogue’ in 2021, a massive 19-track album that cemented their reputation as one of the most exciting and innovative bands in the genre. They then released ‘Director’s Cuts’ earlier this year, a groundbreaking album that pushed the boundaries of deathcore with cinematic, horror movie inspired music videos and diverse soundscapes. The album spawned singles "Red Dot Sight", "Axe Of Kindness", "Cut Off The Head" and "Found Footage" the music videos for which have racked up 420,000 views on YouTube between them with the album hitting 2.68 million streams and counting across streaming platforms.

The 'Director's Cuts (Deluxe)' release promises to be a collector's dream. With the additional "Offcuts EP" tracks, the release will be available in multiple formats, including a double disc, gatefold vinyl, and some killer pre-order merch items to choose from too. Click HERE to pre-order your copy now.

To The Grave have a stacked touring schedule for the rest of this year. Starting with a European run with Signs Of The Swarm and Humanity's Last Breath across August and September this year, with more to be announced soon. Head to To The Grave (tothegraveau.com) for further information.

To The Grave lyrically expose a societal and environmental hell on earth whilst pushing the boundaries of accessible extremity, full of barbed hooks, thick with atmosphere and drenched in groove. Razor-sharp guitars played with an exploratory approach - blending everything from whammy pedal squeaks and chiming cleans to death metal chainsaw tones - are entwined with live drums to give a level of dynamism that musically sets this band apart from the extreme metal pack, yet they maintain the weight of the heaviest bands today. Vocalist Dane Evans commands a multifaceted performance, bursting with vocal energy from throat-ripping dissonant screeches to low end gutturals.

TO THE GRAVE Drop Music Video For New Track "Found Footage; New Album 'Director's Cuts' Out Tomorrow

Hardline extreme metal squad To The Grave have unveiled their powerful new single / video 'Found Footage' ahead of the release of new album, Director’s Cuts, out tomorrow (24th February) via Unique Leader Records. Watch the official music video for 'Found Footage' below and pre-order the album HERE.

The band comment:

 "This song is our attempt at a little storytelling, inspired by stories of Animal Liberation efforts gone wrong (as they commonly can), told from the perspective of someone at the heart of it.”

To The Grave have just completed a mostly SOLD OUT tour in Europe with Shadow Of Intent, Enterprise Earth and Angelmaker. More touring news to be announced soon.

At just over 44 minutes in length, 'Director’s Cuts' is an album packed with ambition and conscience. To The Grave have never shied away from channeling the real horrors of animal cruelty and its impact into the violent, emotional intensity of their music. Songs such as ‘Red Dot Sight’, ‘Found Footage’ and ‘Cut Off The Head’ perfectly conjure images of a world gone astray.  

 

'Director’s Cuts' was recorded by bassist Matt Clarke, with drums recorded live at The Brain Studios in Sydney and mixed and mastered by Lance Prenc at Prenc Audio (Void of Vision, Alpha Wolf, Polaris) in Melbourne with album photography by Animals Uncovered. 

The band comment on the new album: 

"This is the refinement of our combined musical tastes, fuelled by our sadness and anger at the state of the world. We made the music we wanted to make without really considering how it would fit into any little genre boxes, because we knew if we loved it completely then everyone else would too. These songs are hard and heavy without being technical just for the sake of it.”

Watch the video to their first single "Red Dot Sight", a hard-hitting track about anti-vegan public figures and the media perception against vegan activists, here.

Second single 'Axe of Kindness' continues the band's strong vegan message, watch the video here.

Watch the video to third single 'Cut Off The Head' here.

The band comment: 

"'Cut Off The Head' is our commentary on the current state of heavy music from our perspectives. Too many people use their “fame” to inflict harm on others, from shitty business practices and bullying within the scene through to taking advantage of and assaulting fans. We’re sick of our art and expression being connected to the actions of these people simply by existing in the same genres. They deserve everything they have coming to them.”

"Axe of Kindness" continues the band's strong vegan message. The band comment: 

"Axe is a tongue-in-cheek horror concept in the vein of The Purge, we had a little fun going ultra-violent on the idea of someone who’s had enough with a world full of apathy and plans to exact vengeance for animals by going door-to-door with a fire axe."
