[MEDIA RELEASE] Texas-based metal powerhouse Overt Enemy has dropped a high-octane performance video for their previously released track “Eradication.” The video captures the band’s raw energy and precision, immersing fans in the ferocious sound and commanding presence that define Overt Enemy. “Eradication” offers a glimpse into their forthcoming album, Insurrection, set to release in Fall 2025.
Insurrection, the band’s ambitious full-length debut, takes a page from legendary concept albums by the likes of Rush and Mastodon. Originally planned as an EP, it evolved into a full-length metal saga exploring themes of cosmic invasion and rebellion with art that ties into their previously released lyric videos creating their own “universe”. “Eradication” forms part of a three-song arc told from the viewpoint of an alien force, delivering the thrilling sound of an interstellar assault through blistering guitars and powerful, theatrical vocals.
“‘Eradication’ is one part of a 3-song story about an alien invasion. It starts with the perspective of the invaders. Musically it’s one of our more technical songs and so much fun to play on guitar. It’s very theatrical, and Laura plays ‘the alien queen.’ We have way too much fun around here.”
The lyric video for “Eradication” is now live and gives fans a visual dive into the track’s apocalyptic themes, backed by Overt Enemy’s signature, adrenaline-charged sound. The video pairs perfectly with the track’s technical ferocity and sets the stage for the journey awaiting listeners on Insurrection.
Be prepared to join the invasion. Insurrection will be available across all major streaming platforms on September 26, 2025.
