Blackened melodic death metal band Begat The Nephilim have premiered a video for their song "Ossuary", taken from the album The Grand Procession, which was released in 2021 via Noble Demon Records. The video was created by Eric DiCarlo from SquareUp Studios. Begat The Nephilim are busy writing their third album, which will be mixed and mastered by Cryptopsy's guitarist, Christian Donaldson, and is anticipated to drop in 2024.




"This song lyrically and thematically, with the music video, was inspired at first by one of my favorite movies, Cemetery Man. The cover art for the album as well. At the heart of it, this song is as important to this album's overarching theme of death and grieving as the title tracks are,” shared vocalist and lyricist Tyler Smith.

“I wrote this song for my father specifically, as well as my friends that I have lost along the way. The ossuary in this song is representing both a mental and physical place I can bury my lost. This song and album overall is an ode to the dead.”

Guitarist Cam Dupere said: “The impetus for the composition of 'Ossuary' was to showcase the frenetic energy of our earlier material juxtaposed against a more brooding and moody atmosphere. Elements of our sound that were hinted at on our first album are explored more thoroughly, such as the black metal influenced riffing and technical flourishes.

“The middle section was written to contrast the blitzkrieg that proceeds and follows it, allowing the listener time to decompress before the sonic onslaught begins again. The focus on a more dynamic shifts was definitely a driving force behind 'Ossuary' and will be a great asset in our bag of tricks going forward.”
