King 810 have premiered a new video for their new song “LOVE KILLS.” This track is from the band’s new album, “K9: La Grande Mort or SILENCE OF GOD,” which will be released on November 27.

Vocalist David Gunn commented:

“This song is about the most dangerous game us animals play — love. ’LOVE KILLS’ reveals there is no ceremonial difference between weddings and funerals. There’s a type of devotion that doesn’t care whether the other person is alive to receive it. That’s what this song is – love that outlives the need for consent from the ultimate authority: death.”

He also added the following about the album:

“Ten years ago, we explored ‘the little death’ – a phrase the French use to describe orgasm – in a sexually charged body of work. This year, we experience the silence of God. The little death was only a rehearsal for the big death.

The record is about two lovers and their inconceivably dark relationship. In keeping with the French, it explores the themes of folie à deux (madness shared by two) and l’amour fou (mad love) to their deepest depths. If only one didn’t have to experience these events to articulate them.

The two individuals whose story is told in this work of non-fiction suffer from enmeshment — what happens when the boundaries between two people become so blurred that individuality starts to disappear. I also play with the idea of decalcomania — adapted from the French décalcomanie, equivalent to décalquer, ‘to transfer a tracing of,’ plus the English ‘-mania.’ Perhaps this can occur at inconceivable heights of creation, where a single soul may be imprinted on two separate individuals.”
