Deathcore tyrants Autumn Lies Buried have just dropped their latest music video for the blistering track “Told Off Witta Sawed Off,” now available on Spaceuntravel’s YouTube channel. The video marks a milestone in the band’s career, as it supports their recently unleashed EP, “Mob Mentality”, unveiled on June 6, 2025. This release is the first of two EPs slated for 2025 under Exitus Stratagem Records, setting the stage for a year full of fierce music and high-energy performances.
“Told Off Witta Sawed Off” is a full-throttle anthem aimed at those who talk big from behind closed doors but fall silent when faced with real confrontation. With aggressive riffs and unrelenting energy, the track calls out the hypocrisy of those who run their mouths but fail to follow through. Featuring vocalist Dustin Jamaal Mitchell of Filth, this collaboration adds an extra layer of intensity to the song, which is sure to resonate with anyone who’s ever had to deal with empty threats and weak words.
“We wanted to capture that feeling of dealing with people who talk shit from the safety of their little bubbles but never hold that same energy when it’s time to step up in person. How many times has someone run their mouth from safety but never held the same energy when they see you in public? The only thing we want from those plotting our downfall is a whole lotta ‘leave me alone’. Or else…” says the band.
The release of “Told Off Witta Sawed Off” coincides with the conclusion of their successful Hellhowler Tour with Casket Robbery. Known for their electrifying live performances, Autumn Lies Buried’s shows have left audiences breathless, and they now bring that same raw power to their visual presentation. The music video, directed by Criket Camacho (The Homie Criket), complements the track’s fierce energy with intense, high-impact visuals, capturing the band’s dynamic presence and their unrelenting drive.
With “Mob Mentality” setting the tone for 2025, Autumn Lies Buried is poised to take the metal scene by storm. The EP dives deep into themes of social apathy, power struggles, and standing tall in the face of adversity, and fans can expect the second EP later this year. They are recommended for fans of Tech N9ne, The Acacia Strain, and Twisted Insane.

“It’s important to have a strong opener, and that’s why for this week’s FFO, I’m introducing you to, Autum Lies Buried “Told Off With a Sawed Off.” Straight off the bat, this one launches into some extreme metal and has a fun hardcore swag to it. Taken from the band’s forthcoming record, Mob Mentality, “Told Off With a Sawed Off” is a cut-throat introduction into what this band is all about. For Fans Of: Filth, Left to Suffer, Heriot” – For Fans Of: MetalSucks Playlist – May 24, 2025
“This EP isn’t just heavy—It also carries a powerful social message… if you’re looking for something that crushes skulls but still carries a positive social message, look no further!” – Decibel Magazine
“Featuring five tracks, Mob Mentality doesn’t hang around, it’s fast and furious (just like the band themselves) and places all the needles firmly in the red. Hopefully you’ll never be locked in a room with a depraved serial killer, but if you’d like to experience some of that terror by osmosis, look no further than opener ‘Strappado’. It’s the sudden sonic shifts that create a sense of unease, taking the listener way out of their comfort zone and holding them there over the course of fifteen frantic minutes. Autumn Lies Buried have been creating waves in the underground metal scene and Mob Mentality is sure to send them superterranean.” – Devolution Magazine UK
“Something that should be fairly obvious to anyone who presses play on the EP seeing as Strappado is the opener and it is a snarling, spitting, and foaming beast of a track. In fact, it’s quite ‘paint by numbers’ as far as deathcore goes. Thoroughly enjoyable, but not particularly remarkable, until the rapping starts. It, alongside the destructive Guillotine and the dangerous Told Off with a Sawed Off, stands out. All because Autumn Lies Buried show off their creativity, speak their truth, and deliver everything with the kind of passion that can only come from people who are extremely pissed off. Unsurprisingly, the EP ends in riotous fashion too, serrated and violent sounding, it’s Debt of Silence and there’s a hardcore underbelly here. It will leave you seeing stars.” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life
“Everything you hear on Mob Mentality leaves you wanting more, and that’s what counts. The vocals are solid, the riffs are nicely filthy, the drums are super tight, and the mix of different styles is well-crafted. Autumn Lies Buried is now on my radar! For fans of The Acacia Strain, Filth, and Left To Suffer, among others.” – Zware Metalen
“Socially and politically aware “Guillotine” slaps hard with thought provoking lyrics about rooting out the corrupt with blast beats galore from Cole Hill. Reaching into the void of Slam, a brutal roar before the final verse is the push to make you move before a violently turbulent mosh part brings it home in style. A guest vocal appearance from Dustin Jamaal Mitchell of Filth graces the audio violence that “Told Off Witta Sawed Off“, a gang chant of “f*** you!” early on a moment of magic. The pacing is electric, sending a chill down the spine as the band elevate a Metallic Hardcore structure into Deathcore territory with vim and vigour, putting their backs into it and pulling out Kublai Khan vibes in the process. The final onslaught is the crushing “Debt Of Silence” which churns and burns from the very start, tight polyrhythms tearing a hole in the fabric of time and space to create urgent leads after some serious blood gargling from Wilkins. It has to be said that Cane Potter’s guitar work is more involved on this one, something which pushes the whole thing to a new realm of pain for the eardrums to endure… [8/10]” – Metal Noise
“Mob Mentality by Autumn Lies Buried is an EP that stands as a rallying cry in these f*cked up times. It is the kind of music to make you want to smash the system, written and performed by a band who encourage you to question everything and take nothing for granted. It is the soundtrack of a revolution we all so desperately need to free us from the shackles imposed upon us by a bumch of bastards. It is also… *checks notes*… ah, yes… Metal as f*ck. 4/5” – Black Metal Archive
“If this was a purely Deathcore EP it would be easy to say that this is up there with one of the best things I have heard in the genre however with this heavy Rap inclusion it does take a little getting used to, however when you just goo with it you realise this slaps hard no matter which vocal is happening. You will end up throwing down and breaking anything in arm’s reach throughout the 15 minutes, and it feels so good to let it go. Does the combination work? Yes, it does, and very well indeed. There have been many crossover groups, but this feels more, it feels more than a gimmick or for access to a wider audience. The Deathcore would put most people off, and this is by no means any kind of compromise – I’m not sure that Autumn Lies Buried would know how to compromise. Mob Mentality goes as hard as you will hear and test you in ways you didn’t know possible, but it is so good, I just want more! 8/10” – Rock n’ Load Mag
“Brought to a close by Debt Of Silence, a track contemplating and dissecting the corrupted and destructive leadership of country and world with its own turbulence of vocal and lyrical disputation amid creative contention, the Mob Mentality EP more than proved a vital and inspiring quarrel upon the senses and thoughts. As its impressive final track, the release violated and inflamed with its every passing moment and controversial breath, it all shared with rousing invention and truculent passion not forgetting debilitating virulence.” – The Ring Master Review
“With a unique blend of metal and rap, they have earned a reputation for grabbing listeners by the ears and taking them on a sonic journey that is as heavy as it is provocative.” – Silent Radio UK
“A deathcore type thing, brutal, a smidge of a nu-metal thing.” – Mosh Pit Radio – WORT FM 89.9 FM (Madison, WI)
