A vital fixture of the Chilean alternative metal underground, Santiago’s Antes Muertos have built their reputation on a decade of relentless touring, uncompromising independence, and a crushing blend of heavy textures and industrial noise. Known for their devastatingly energetic live shows, the band recently solidified their standing in the region with an electrified performance at the historic Teatro Cariola, supporting major international acts. Now, the group is prepared to take their next massive leap forward.

The band has officially announced the release of Dry Bones, a towering new single and accompanying music video that represents a major turning point in their sonic evolution. Written and tracked earlier this year, the song sees the band stepping far outside of their established comfort zone. By integrating high-intensity electronic sampling, aggressive down-tuned guitar patterns, and volatile, synchronized song structures, Antes Muertos have crafted their most mature and devastating work to date.

Conceptually, the track is a visceral dive into psychological warfare, addressing the terrifying sensation of losing oneself to internal chaos. Rather than succumbing to the dark, the themes ultimately transform that absolute panic into a fierce war cry for self-preservation and personal resilience. The new video amplifies this tension, offering a chaotic, visual translation of the song’s claustrophobic atmosphere.

“Dry Bones speaks directly from the heart, capturing the brutal experience of being on the edge of the abyss and almost rendering to your own thoughts,” the band shares. “However, the true concept is turning that darkness into unconditional overcoming—an inner empowerment that will not let anything steal your inner peace or mute your essence.”

The single Dry Bones is streaming now on all major digital music platforms, and the official music video can be viewed on YouTube.
