UK grindcore pioneers Napalm Death are now launching a promotional video online to promote their 15th studio album “Apex Predator – Easy Meat” on January 26th, 2015.
To celebrate the album’s first release in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Finland, a promotional video clip for the short and intense track “Smash A Single Digit” is being debuted today via the websites of Decibel Magazine.
“Couldn’t be happier with the ‘Smash A Single Digit’ video clip. It shows nothing of dignity or life’s fundamental pleasures – only a snapshot of those unfortunate enough to only be deemed as numbers for production quotas in this world. When a ‘digit’ has therefore been expended, it is rubbed out (or consumed leaving no trace, as in the case of this video). In my opinion, Michael Panduro and the team produced a real work of art and I think the general style holds some really nice future artistic possibilities for NAPALM DEATH.“
“Trivia facts about this clip: The video is made up of 1093 unique drawings, each one hand-drawn in ink on paper by artist Lisbet Fredslund and actually 225 of the drawings are of the face of NAPALM DEATH vocalist “Mark “Barney” Greenway.”
The track listing for the standard edition of Apex Predator – Easy Meat reads as follows:
01. Apex Predator – Easy Meat
02. Smash A Single Digit
03. Metaphorically Screw You
04. How The Years Condemn
05. Stubborn Stains
