SUICIDE SILENCE have released their new track, “Thinking In Tongues” today. The song has arrived alongside a video clip, which was directed by Vicente Cordero for Industrialism Films. Watch it now below.
“Thinking In Tongues” also arrives ahead of the re-release of the band’s classic debut album, The Cleansing, (Ultimate Edition) on June 24th. The re-release is available for pre-order now HERE.
“This song derives from the chaotic feeling of losing one’s mind”, said the band about the track. “Feeling like you’re choking on every breath you take until you eventually break. Debilitating confusion sets in and your mind begins ‘Thinking in Tongues’; essentially processing thoughts that not even you yourself can understand. In a sense, this song evokes the ultimate sense of helplessness.”
The track also marks drummer Alex Lopez’s final studio performance with SUICIDE SILENCE. Of Lopez’s departure, the band said, “SUICIDE SILENCE and our long-time drummer, Alex Lopez, have mutually agreed to part ways. We wish him nothing but the best moving forward and encourage you all to follow his future endeavors in both music and visual arts. Our good friend, Ernie Iniguez (who recorded drums on ‘Become The Hunter’) will be drumming with us on the upcoming ‘Chaos & Carnage Tour’ and European festival run.”
The band is about to start their co-headlining run on the US “Chaos & Carnage Tour” with Carnifex, labelmates LORNA SHORE, Upon a Burning Body, Angelmaker and Distant, beginning May 5th and running until June 4. Tickets are available to purchase HERE.
