NAPALM DEATH releases new video "The Wolf I Feed"

British/American grindcore pioneers  NAPALM DEATH have posted a new video for the song "The Wolf I Feed". The track comes off of the newest album "Utilitarian" was released on February 27 in Europe and February 28 in North America through Century Media Records. The video can be seen below. The clip was filmed by Tim Fox and the cover artwork was created by the Danish artist Frode Sylthe

Commented NAPALM DEATH singer Mark "Barney" Greenway: "This is one of Mitch's (Harris, guitar) lyrics. It is about Armageddon ideology and the way this is used to drive populations sensitive towards religious dogma. When they can fear "The Great Satan", that is, of course, a very powerful tool. It can be used to propagate everything from racial suspicion and superiority, to wars based around the dogmatic quest for moral purification."

Napalm Death - On The Brink Of Extinction (New Video 2010)

Napalm Death - On The Brink Of Extinction

(New Video 2010)

500.000 rock & metal videos on ROCKTUBE and METALHEAD

Born between chaos and hatred - a lottery of fate

We sit on the brink of extinction

The world lies in wait

Just a scratch on the surface

Of time that will wash away

We delude ourselves with the notion

That we are here to stay

As life starts to shrink

An impending state of neurosis

Will we awake from this negligent narcosis?

On the brink, the brink of extinction

We're on the brink, the brink of extinction

Locked together in a mindless campaign

It's only now we see

Appreciation is the one redemption

For all that lives and breathes

Like a virus it's conscious - impure

We have farmed disease

It's time now to step back

And find an inner peace

As life starts to shrink

An impending state of neurosis

Will we awake from this negligent narcosis?

On the brink, the brink of extinction

We're on the brink, the brink of extinction

Will we avoid a natural selection?

Do we have the right to survive the failures?

Nature, it's force - the scales unbalanced

What's the next step? How do we evolve?

Can we avoid a natural selection?

Do we have the right to survive the failures?

Nature, it's force - the scales unbalanced

What's the next step? What can we resolve?

Napalm Death

NAPALM DEATH - Silence Is Deafening (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

27 years of grindcore ultra-violence, 27 years of being one of the hardest working, hardest touring bands on this miserable planet, NAPALM DEATH’s conviction, energy and belief in spontaneoust, outspoken yet extreme music is far from being watered down. “Time Waits For No Slave”, the band’s 13th studio album (excluding the cover album “Leaders Not Followers Pt.2”) marks no exception – as long as this is a world gone wrong, NAPALM DEATH will be utilizing their artistic arsenal to attack those in charge, no matter if their fanaticism stems from a political, religious or simply greedy motivation.

On “Time Waits For No Slave” the legendary fathers of grindcore explore fundamental aspects of our so-called modern life and point out that ideas of servitude are still existent in the allegedly tolerant, liberal society we live in. Despite the old cliché that “we are living in the 21st century” for one thing, women are still sneered at, treated like second-class citizens and viewed in some quarters as baby machines rather than beings in their own right. Giving up our own ideals, wishes and desires to fit into the all too tight conventions still prevalent today might be a very general sounding subject, but the question is: if our freedom is true to the meaning of the word, this is something that affects us all!

Once again, NAPALM DEATH’s concerns are realised through intense, devastatingly brutal songs that venture into groovier, neckbreaking mid-tempo passages to allow the listener to take a breath before vicious blast beats pummel you out of existence. The new material was arranged in intensive rehearsals in a trusty old lock-up room at Robannas rehearsal studio in Birmingham. Soon after, the band roared into the studio. The new effort was engineered and recorded by Russ Russell and produced by Russ Russell and Napalm Death at Foel Studios, Llanfair Caereinon, Wales. Further recording, overall production and album mixing / mastering was finally hammered out at Parlour Studios, Kettering, Northamptonshire, England. A special treat is included on the limited edition of the album as the bonus track “Omnipresent Knife In Your Back” sees bassist Embury also handling the guitars, Mitch Harris switching from guitars to drums and drummer Danny Herrera on bass.

While NAPALM DEATH is a prominent example on how to put words into action and has taken part in several benefit-based activities in the past, vocalist Mark “Barney” Greenway is also engaged in fighting for musicians’ rights through the Musician’s Union (a UK-based trade union) and strives for fairness for music followers via the same organisation. Renowned for their ceaseless touring activities and stellar live performances, following the album’s release NAPALM DEATH will be promoting “Time Waits For No Slave” live worldwide - remaining at the helm of today’s extreme music scene and humbly yet ferociously solidifying their legendary status once again!
