NEFARIOUS UNLEASHES TITLE TRACK "ADDICTED TO POWER" WITH NEW VIDEO —
San Francisco Bay Area thrash metal juggernaut NEFARIOUS is set to ignite the metal world once again with the release of their highly anticipated single and music video, "ADDICTED TO POWER" — the title track from their upcoming debut full-length album. The album will drop worldwide on Friday, July 18, 2025.
A ferocious anthem for the disillusioned and the defiant, "Addicted to Power" delivers razor-sharp riffs, breakneck rhythms, and politically charged lyrics that cut straight to the bone. With legendary thrash titans Rick Hunolt (ex-EXODUS) and Doug Piercy (ex-HEATHEN) unleashing guitar fury, Katon De Pena on vocals, secret weapon Tom Gears on bass, and Will “Beastman” Carroll on the skins. NEFARIOUS blends classic old school thrash intensity with a sophisticated edge.
The accompanying music video is a raw, performance piece —filmed at Soundwave Studio’s Oakland, CA. The video captures the essence of NEFARIOUS: unapologetic, unrelenting, and razor-focused on truth through sound.
This song is about the insatiable hunger for control and the destruction it leaves behind. A reflection of times we are all experiencing right now. "Addicted to Power" is the third single from NEFARIOUS's forthcoming album of the same name, following the critically praised tracks "Master Plan" and “One Nation Enslaved” released earlier this spring. The full album drops later this year and promises a relentless assault of pure thrash metal mayhem.
Catch the premiere of “Addicted to Power” on YouTube and all major streaming platforms on July 1.
