Italian orchestral death metal masters FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE have released a new single titled “No,“ produced by Jacob Hansen (EPICA, VOLBEAT), and an accompanying music video directed by Marina L. McLean (Sanda Movies). The standalone single’s cover was created by Travis Smith (OPETH, KATATONIA) who also provided the art for the band’s recent acoustic rendition of “The Day We’ll Be Gone.”
Commenting on the single, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE frontman Francesco Paoli states:
“We live in a world where people are searching for easy answers to complex questions. Self-styled gurus, fake news and miracle pills show up on screen as the silver bullet that may cast out all your fears and troubles. If you need shortcuts to dominate the intricate reality we live in, be aware that the outcome might not be what you expect. Will you find a way to save this world on Google? No. Will things change if we don’t act? No. Will self-delusions lead us somewhere? No. Can music, and art in general, help us cope with this chaos? Absolutely yes.”
Francesco Paoli adds:
“This release marks another milestone for our line-up, featuring Veronica, Fabio and Eugene as official band members.”

Italian for ‘venom’, “Veleno” marks FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE‘s first record in 3 years, since the release of their critically acclaimed record King (2016). The ‘metal part’ of “Veleno” was recorded in Rome, Italy at Bloom Recording Studio and Kick Studio with long-standing collaborator Marco Mastrobuono, while the ‘orchestral part’ – the ensembles – were tracked at Musica Teclas Studio in Perugia. Fleshgod Apocalypse then took the effort over to Grammy-nominated Jacob Hansen (VOLBEAT, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, EPICA) at Hansen Studios in Denmark for mixing and mastering. The entire production of “Veleno” took, according to Paoli, about three months. Artwork for the album was created by Travis Smith (AVENGED SEVENFOLD, OPETH, KATATONIA).
