IT DIES TODAY: 'Lividity' Release Date Announced

September 8, 2008

Buffalo's IT DIES TODAY will release its new album, "Lividity", on January 27, 2009 via Trustkill Records.

IT DIES TODAY's forthcoming CD will be "a much heavier album than 'Sirens' [2006] but keeping with that classic IDT sound that we have all come to love," according to a press release.

Commented singer Jason Wood: "We're really pumped about this new record! Lividity is a medical term (as I am a huge fan of 'CSI') that means when you die all your blood in your body settles, so where you're lying is a bruise covering that part of your body. Metaphorically, for example, someone whose life is very stagnant or unmotivated. The common theme of the record is going to be character flaws, such as the song 'Nihility', [which is] about nihilism or absolute destructiveness. We've decided to record the album ourselves seeing as we have an amazing engineer (Mike Hatalak) in the band. The plus side to this is that we have endless time in the studio to perfect the record. Now I'm sure everyone who cares has heard the rumors of a heavy record, well, it's true! We're writing a lot more 'Caitiff Choir'-like riffs and we're working on a more raw and ballsy atmosphere for this record. Expect sincerity, passion, and FUCKING POWER!"

Behind-the-scenes footage from the video shoot for IT DIES TODAY's new single, "Thank You For Drinking" — which will appear on "Lividity" — can be viewed below.

A "demo" version of "Thank You For Drinking" has been posted on the band's MySpace page.
