Technical death metal outfit ALLEGAEON have unveiled a performance video for "Dark Matter Dynamics", taken from their latest album The Ossuary Lens (Metal Blade Records). The track features guest guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Adrian Bellue, whose acoustic steel-string influence threads through the heavier material.
"'Dark Matter Dynamics' is a very special song for me," guitarist Greg Burgess says. "Having the opportunity to explore my love for steel string acoustic music and bringing it into the fold with ALLEGAEON will forever be a source of pride."
Vocalist Ezra Haynes calls it "the most jump-worthy ALLEGAEON riff ever written," highlighting its mix of soulful atmospheric instrumentation and crushing heaviness as a showcase of the album's range. The video was shot by Kyle Lamar.
The band will perform the track live this weekend at Flatline Fest in Denver, Colorado, alongside Cattle Decapitation, The Zenith Passage, and more.
