Australian death/thrash duo BATTLEGRAVE have unleashed the second single off their forthcoming third full-length, Enslavement.
The music video for the band’s newest assault, “Venom,” is now streaming.
The band says it best when they describe the song as “venomous, fast acting and paralyzing.” They continue to say, “It’s coming for your ears and it wants you dead! The song is a classic BATTLEGRAVE 2-minute head stomper about what the venom of some of Australia’s native toxic animals can do to the human body upon the infliction of a bite or sting. It’s a celebration of the magnificence of our countries fiercely dangerous but misunderstood fauna, delivered via a 10-tonne Death/Thrash/Crossover sledge hammer.”

The band’s most devastating full-length release to date, Enslavement delivers 10 tracks of unbridled and vitriolic, death-laden thrash metal. This relentless barrage of calculated venom, intense riffing, and punishing rhythmic precision further cements the band’s reputation for uncompromising extremity.
Lyrically tied to themes of violence and aggression, Enslavement weaves an interlocking narrative of a subterranean demon harvesting human souls to satiate its unending hunger. This conceptual core adds a sinister layer beneath the album’s sonic brutality.
The album was recorded by Clint Patzel of BATTLEGRAVE, mixed by Tim Shearman and mastered by Logan Mader. Session drums by Robin Stone.

BIO:
BATTLEGRAVE are a two-piece death/thrash project from Melbourne, Australia, formed in 2017 following the release of their debut demo track, “Mortar Fire,” which quickly generated strong underground buzz.
The duo followed with the EP To Hell with War (2017) and full-length albums Relics of a Dead Earth (2018) and Cavernous Depths (2022, via Bitter Loss Records), establishing a reputation for blending savage thrash intensity with punishing death metal weight. Their releases have received consistent acclaim across the global metal press and airplay on international radio platforms.
While primarily a studio-driven force, BATTLEGRAVE have also brought their music to the stage, recruiting respected musicians from Melbourne’s metal scene to deliver their blistering sound in a live setting.
Throughout their discography, the project has collaborated with world-class drummers including Kevin Talley, 66Samus, and most recently Robin Stone, further reinforcing the precision and power behind the band’s extreme sonic identity.
