A Killer’s Confession, the alt-metal powerhouse led by former Mushroomhead vocalist Waylon Reavis, have released their highly anticipated sixth studio album, Victim 3, today via MNRK Heavy. Marking the final chapter in the band's elaborate three-album conceptual saga, the record delivers an uncompromising collision of punishing grooves, haunting melodies and psychological storytelling.
To celebrate the release, the band has unveiled a new lyric video for the album's opening track, 'The One,' a volatile, high-intensity introduction to the record that sets the tone for its dark and dramatic conclusion.

Commenting on the song, Reavis says: "'The One' is the opening track to Victim 3. It sets the tone for the entire album. It is the breaking point, the last straw, the final warning. It is a rhythmic beat down and a slap across the face to wake up. It represents a rabbit dog backed into a corner with nowhere else to go."
With Victim 3, A Killer's Confession bring their ambitious three-album narrative to a dramatic conclusion. Following Victim 1 and Victim 2, the record finds its central character, a vigilante serial killer, awaiting execution on death row and confronting the consequences of his violent pursuit of justice.
Recorded in Nashville and Denver by the creative core of Waylon Reavis, Evan McKeever and Dusty Boles, the 11-track album blends punishing grooves, haunting melodies and dark electronic textures. From the aggression of 'The One' and 'Meat Hook' to the atmospheric 'Roses' and closing track “Worth Saving,' the record showcases the band's musical range while bringing their twisted story full circle.
For Reavis, the trilogy represents one of the most personal projects of his career.
“This is an art project of storytelling and madness,” he says. “It’s a collection of stories from different individuals in separate time periods with their own agendas. For me, it’s a big passion project. It’s closer to my heart than anything I’ve ever done. I’ve done great things in my career, but nothing compares to this. It gave me purpose. It gave me youth. It gave me fire. It gave me a universe.”
