Blackened death metal collective Visitant has dropped the official video for their album’s title track, “Rubidium”, a visceral visual companion to one of the most progressive and punishing songs on their debut record, unleashed on August 22nd via Exitus Stratagem Records. The release sets the stage for Visitant’s scorching “In the Wake of Flame Tour”, a five-state trek through Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, and North Carolina with genre-defying allies IATT, culminating in a climactic performance at the Tennessee Metal Devastation Fest.
“Rubidium” is a sonic and lyrical descent into mythic horror. The track conjures a deity that feeds on human souls to nourish the forest floor, with trees bearing hauntingly human faces and worshippers willingly surrendering to the soil. Guitarist Taylor Tidwell, inspired by serpentine imagery, crafted riffs that slither and strike, while the band’s signature orchestral layering and thunderous rhythm section elevate the track into a cinematic nightmare.
The “Rubidium” video captures this eerie mythology with stark visuals and ritualistic intensity, setting the tone for the tour’s immersive live experience. Watch the music video below!
Visitant’s debut album "Rubidium" has already made waves for its genre-defying sound. Featuring seven tracks of ritualistic brutality, the record blends orchestral grandeur with guttural rage. The lineup includes riff architect Taylor Tidwell (Unaligned), drums and orchestration by Anthony Lusk-Simone (Abiotic, Lattermath), bassist Kilian Duarte (Abiotic, Scale the Summit), growler Chelsea Marrow (Voraath, DOOM ETERNAL, Hellblade II), and Thomas Weidick, on guitar, who recently joined their live lineup this past June.
The album explores themes of grief, betrayal, and vengeance, with each track acting as a chapter in a dark spiritual journey. As Chelsea Marrow puts it, “After you listen to the album from beginning to end, you feel like you were just on the biggest journey. It evokes all sorts of feels. Like damn… I feel like I was audibly hit by a big ol' bus. In a good way… if there was a good way!”
Recommended for fans of Gojira, Opeth, Naglfar, and Between the Buried and Me, "Rubidium" is a must-listen. And for those craving more, they can catch Visitant with IATT live this fall as they bring "Rubidium" to life on the "In the Wake of Flame Tour" (dates listed below).
