Animated Visual Arrives as Band Prepares for 2026 South American Tour Supporting Living Colour
Las Vegas metal juggernaut Madzilla LV has released the official music video for their latest single, “Angel Genocide,” out today, Friday, February 20. The new animated visual marks a bold and emotionally charged chapter for the band, reinforcing their reputation for pairing heavy music with uncompromising thematic depth.
At its core, “Angel Genocide” is a heavy, emotional anthem built around a sobering idea: that the pure-hearted are often the ones who suffer most. The song tells the story of being too kind, too helpful, and ultimately watching that goodness be exploited. In doing so, Angel Genocide proves the band isn’t afraid to confront uncomfortable truths head-on — a trait that has become central to Madzilla LV’s identity.
That message is amplified through a striking animated video that pushes the concept into nightmare territory. Zilla, the embodiment of humanity’s darkest impulses, wipes out a city of angels in a brutal visual metaphor for how goodness is crushed in a world that rewards greed. The result is more than a companion piece — the video elevates the song into something larger, a statement rather than just a single.
Musically and visually, this release showcases Madzilla LV at their most focused, cinematic, and unapologetic. The band continues to refine their ability to balance intensity with intent, delivering a track that is as emotionally heavy as it is musically commanding. Heavy music with meaning has long been part of Madzilla LV’s mission, and Angel Genocide sharpens that vision with clarity and confidence.
Since forming, Madzilla LV has steadily built an international reputation through relentless touring and high-profile appearances alongside metal icons including Judas Priest, Sabaton, Soulfly, Saxon, Angra, and Tarja. Across each chapter, the band has been building a world around their music — and Angel Genocide stands as a defining chapter in that evolving narrative.
The release of the video aligns with Madzilla LV’s upcoming support slot on Living Colour’s 2026 South American tour, where the band will bring their commanding live presence to audiences across Argentina and Brazil. The timing underscores a moment of momentum, positioning Angel Genocide as both a creative milestone and a launch point for what lies ahead.
Madzilla LV continues their reign with a release that expands their reach while staying true to their core — unflinching, purposeful, and emotionally resonant metal that refuses to look away from the darker truths it confronts.
