French Chaotic Hardcore power-trio BIND TORTURE KILL unveil title-track video from "Sauvagerie" new album. 
11 February 2025

The ferocious French trio BIND TORTURE KILL is proud to unveil a new music video illustrating the title track of their third full-length album, "Sauvagerie". This nine-track onslaught of raw aggression and visceral storytelling further cements the band’s position as a force in the world of extreme music.

BTK (Bind Torture Kill) is a chaotic hardcore trio from Lyon, France, formed in 2010. Consisting of a drummer, guitarist, and screamer, the band originally started with a bassist but transitioned into a trio in 2015 after several lineup changes. Known for their love of heavy, chaotic sound, BTK delivers intense performances with French lyrics often narrating the grim tales of serial killers and violent crimes.

In 2013, they self-released their debut EP, and in 2015, they followed up with their first album, "Condamné". By 2018, their second album, "Viscères", was released through WOOAAARGH! (Germany), Troffea (France/Switzerland), and Hell-J Industries (France). With "Viscères", the band's sound took on a heavier edge, using a guitar setup routed through three amps—two guitar amps and a bass amp enhanced with an octaver pedal to create a more massive, dense sound. 

Over time, their style shifted from a blend of death and mathcore to a darker, chaotic hardcore infused with punk, crust, grind, and black metal influences.

In 2023, BTK recorded their third album, "Sauvagerie", at Warmaudio in Décines (France), with mastering handled by Nick Zampiello at New Alliance East, Boston. Maintaining the same guitar setup, but adding the HM2 pedal, the album marks a significant evolution in their sound. "Sauvagerie" is darker and more brutal, featuring a dirtier tone, faster tempos, and a relentless mix of aggressive breaks and crushing riffs, highlighting the band's raw, savage energy.

Born 1969, grew up with the NWOBHM sounds, musically educated with cult french magazines that were ENFER and METAL ATTACK, definitely nailed to the style when "The Number Of The Beast" by IRON MAIDEN was released... From 1982, it was clear life would never be the same ! Young & getting wild to the HEAVY sounds of SAXON, VENOM, BLACK SABBATH, MOTORHEAD, Young Fab also discovered thanks to school mates the NOISE, FILTH & FURY of Hard-Core/Punk bands like G.B.H, DISCHARGE, BROKEN BONES but also CRO-MAGS, BAD BRAINS, FUGAZI... and later on, through the 90's, everything that was ALTERNATIVE, EXPERIMENTAL, GRUNGE, INDUSTRIAL (SONIC YOUTH, NINE INCH NAILS, SOUDGARDEN, ALICE IN CHAINS)... Passion & curiosity grew up as years went by ... Fate was SEALED... no turning back ! No Music = No Life !
