Thy Art Is Murder have entered their next era of brutality with new vocalist Jerry Grimefeld, who makes his debut via the single “Squeeze” out now via Human Warfare. Before pulling the final curtain on touring for 2026, the band will officially introduce Grimefeld to Australian audiences via a quick run of intimate shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

Without formal introduction or fanfare, TAIM’s new vocalist set the internet ablaze, with the rest of the world asking “who the f\\k is Jerry Grimefeld?”. Ripping through set after set, Grimefeld commanded the microphone and caused carnage in the pit as though he had been reigning over the blood throne since day one. Metal Hammer described TAIM’s Radar Festival set as a “mass of dropped jaws and flailing limbs”, Distorted Sound Magazine added that he “slotted into his role seamlessly with impressive ferocity”, while Hive UK marvelled at the

“energetic frontman with insane gutturals and control of his vocals”.

Of his new post, Grimefield says:

“Thy Art Is Murder has influenced me more than any other band in the world. Hate sent me down the path I'm on today, so being part of this band now is surreal. I'm blessed to be here, and I can't wait to show everyone what we've been working on. We're about to get
