Chugging away with the eighth video from Metallica’s forthcoming album comes the clip for the song “Here Comes Revenge” which was directed by Jessica Cope. Hopefully you readers are all still with me as this has been a lot and we aren’t done yet. Check it out below.
PiercingMetal Thoughts: I think that I enjoyed this one more than some of the others since it’s the first animated clip in the batch and it tells an interesting if not horrifying story. Our scenario is an apparent hyena serial killer who admires his trophies and plans his next target but things do not go as he might have hoped. The song is solid as well and makes me even more excited for the new album. We are almost there folks. More to come but let me know what you think of this one when time allows.
I seem to be doing a whole lot of Metallica related news items over these past few weeks and even more now that the brand new album is heading our way. I don’t mind of course since its Metallica and the new songs sound so damned good. Check out this press release about their latest plans and then I’ll return with some closing thoughts.
The Press Release:
In an unprecedented move for Metallica, the band will release music videos for each song from their forthcoming album, Hardwired…To Self-Destruct starting today at 12:00 PM EST on www.metallica.com and simultaneously with editorial partners around the world for every two hours. New songs and their videos will premiere right up to when the clock turns over at midnight in New Zealand, where the first official copy of the new album will be available worldwide. The videos – shot around the globe – will give fans the opportunity to hear the long awaited Metallica album two days ahead of its official November 18th release via Blackened Recordings.
