The Black Dahlia Murder have released an animated video for their track Threat Level No. 3.
The song features on their seventh album Abysmal, launched last year via Metal Blade Records.
The promo was written, directed and animated by Adam Avilla, who says it was an honour working with the group.
He says: “It isn’t often that a band that you have listened to for 15 years approaches you and wants you to draw four minutes of sheer madness for their new record. It’s insane. Such a great honour – and the song rips.”
Frontman Trevor Strnad adds: “Adam has done an amazing job of bringing the fiendish character behind Threat Level No. 3 to life in all his despicable glory.
“This is by far the best video we’ve ever brought forth and the best part is you don’t have to look at our ugly faces once.”
The US outfit recently parted ways with guitarist Ryan Knight. He’s been replaced by Brandon Ellis for their upcoming US tour dates with Fallujah and Disentomb.
