Shadow Of Intent – Drop New Single & Music Video “Mechanical Chaos”

Imperium Delirium has arrived. The highly anticipated new album from Shadow of Intent is out now via Blood Blast Distribution, marking a career-defining moment for one of metal’s most forward-moving and fiercely independent forces. The band have also shared a lyric video for the album’s crushing title track.

Written and produced by guitarist Chris Wiseman with lyrics written by vocalist Ben Duerr, Imperium Delirium is as sonically unrelenting as it is thematically urgent—exploring the machinery of modern power through psychological horror, political decay, and a sound built on symphonic grandeur and technical brutality. Across eleven tracks, Shadow of Intent take aim at imperialism, drone warfare, mass surveillance, and the cold systems that dehumanize us all. The themes are grounded in reality, made visceral through punishing breakdowns, blackened textures, and surgical precision.

Speaking on today’s album release, Chris Wiseman shares

“After countless writing sessions, abandoned ideas, and many years of patience, we are very proud to bring you Imperium Delirium. We couldn’t be happier to finally turn to this newest chapter of Shadow of Intent.”
