German brutal-surf-death-party metal band STILLBIRTH follow the carnage of ‘Baptized In Blood’ with the even more bloodthirsty new single, ‘Sacrificial Slaughter.’ STILLBIRTH will unleash their forthcoming release “Survival Protocol” on October 31, 2025 via rising metal label Reigning Phoenix Music. The album is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed “Homo Deus,” which was released in 2023.
The band comment: “‘Sacrificial Slaughter’ marks the next step in our journey through the “Survival Protocol” story. This track dives deep into the heart of ritualistic violence on an alien planet. After ‘Baptized In Blood,’ this is where things get even darker. We’re thrilled to share this chapter of the story – and trust us, it’s only getting more intense from here.”
Welcome to a world where humanity has fallen and the cult has risen. ‘Sacrificial Slaughter’ tells the story of mankind’s descent into the barbaric times. Worshipping ancient alien gods through blood-soaked rituals and acts of unspeakable brutality.
As flesh is offered and souls are sold, a new cult rises from the ruins. The track is one part of the concept album “Survival Protocol” and captures the horror of a species being revived through sacrificial slaughter. With massive riffs, pure aggression, and lyrics soaked in gore and dread, ‘Sacrificial Slaughter’ is a brutal hymn to a world ruled by darkness.
