Swedish Death Metallers THE LURKING FEAR are about to drop their debut album – “Out Of The Voiceless Grave” is set for release via Century Media Records worldwide on August 11th, 2017.
A new single entitled “The Starving Gods Of Old” is being launched today via a lyric video created by Costin Chioreanu / Twilight 13 Media, based on the album’s artwork by Stefan Thanneur.

THE LURKING FEAR’s vocalist Tomas Lindberg commented as follows: “So, for the next video clip we had the idea of letting our old friend Costin work on it, but having him use Stefan’s amazing cover artwork. I think Costin really captured the eeriness of the track “The Starving Gods Of Old” perfectly. It feels like you are thrown into the darkened void of the starving gods themselves, being devoured by them alive, while getting your ears blasted by another serious dose of twisted death metal madness. The song is like an anthem to what lurks beyond this world. Like watching an old 70´s horror movie on a worn out VHS cassette.”
