Immolation releases official video for new single “Bend Towards The Dark”

Author Benedetta Baldin - 11.4.2026

Robert Vigna directed Immolation‘s recently released music video for “Bend Towards The Dark“, as per theprp. The band recently released the video in conjunction with the release of their twelfth studio album, “Descent,” on April 10. This spring, the group will be touring with Behemoth, Deicide, and Rotting Christ as part of “The Godless IV Tour.”

We are excited to get one more single out as our new album ‘Descent‘ is finally released! ‘Bend Towards The Dark‘ is definitely one of the more ambitious tracks of the record. It has just about every element you would expect from Immolation, but takes things a bit further. It’s intense and heavy, yet becomes very epic and almost orchestral at times, really embodying a lot of feeling and emotion throughout. We really look forward to having ‘Bend Towards The Dark‘ out there to ignite the release of ‘Descent‘! We hope everyone enjoys it!
