KAGOULE PREMIERE 'GLUE' MUSIC VIDEO ON VEVO

Nottingham alt-rock trio KAGOULE have premiered their new music video for the track "Glue" on VEVO.

The medieval-themed video was filmed with director Katia Ganfield (VINCE KIDD, LOYLE CARNER, T?L?, VUVUVULTURES) at Rickney Farm and Grubbs Burgers in Brighton and sees the band donning an assortment of handmade vintage garments for a truly eye-catching performance.

Watch "Glue" now on VEVO at http://vevo.ly/FBWdcw

The video is also available to watch on YouTube at https://youtu.be/Tv2l4ilSsMk

KAGOULE singer/guitarist Cai Burns speaks about how the song came to be:

"Glue popped into existence on New Year's Day of 2014.  The frame of the song was sat as a garage band file called 'so damn stuck' and it was a troublesome little dude.  Refused to be written.  I'm not sure exactly where my mind was on January 1st but it definitely wasn't in my head.  The next day I noticed this weird guitar riff I'd added that must've bypassed my brain was sat on top of the verse.  I layered some sticky lyrics on top of it and it was born, covered in a thick, pale afterbirth.  Ready to be plated, garnished and served."

Video director Katia Ganfield comments:

"The video is open to interpretation.  Rather than spoon-feeding a narrative to the audience as many strains of media adopt today, the aim is to encourage the viewer to adopt an open mind, inspiring philosophical thinking and sociological awareness.

"Carefully structured symbolic visuals aim to depict a dystopian reality (and the breaking of) through the characters and locations, which tie in with the song's lyrics, emanating illusions of grandeur, embroiled in blissful denial.  The knight character serves as a metaphor for our disenchantment and increasing apathy towards the wider socio-political conditions at play.  His tedious nature, though surrounded by frivolous opulence, aims to represent the disengaged electorate."

"Glue" is taken from KAGOULE's highly-anticipated debut album, 'Urth', which is due to be released on August 21st worldwide.  Pre-order the album now on CD and vinyl at http://www.earache.com/kagoule

'Urth' is also available to pre-order now on iTunes, including an exclusive bonus track plus instant downloads of the songs "Glue" and "Gush".  Pre-order now at http://bit.ly/urth-itunes

EX-EVILE GUITARIST OL DRAKE PREMIERES NEW TRACK 'HAN VALEN' ON METAL HAMMER

Former EVILE lead guitarist Ol Drake has teamed up with Metal Hammer UK for the premiere of a brand new track, "Han Valen".

The first song on Ol Drake's debut solo album 'Old Rake' - and second track to be released following "Guitarists Playing Guitars" in April - "Han Valen" once again showcases the six-string shredder's wide range of influences and mind-boggling talent.  'Old Rake' is due to be released on June 22nd.

Listen to "Han Valen" now over at Metal Hammer at http://bit.ly/1dwhhLX

Ol Drake comments:

"Welcome to the first track on my solo album thing.  It is entitled 'Han Valen' for absolutely no reason and isn't implying anything at all.

"The intro which goes on for 7 years was written when I was about 16 while showing a friend of mine online (Hammy) how to tap on the guitar.  When it came to doing this album I thought it would make a cool addition.  With drums from Mike Heller (MALIGNANCY, FEAR FACTORY) and orchestration on the intro by Zino Von Hamersveld, it's definitely a song for guitarists to dig their teeth into.  If you want to learn how to play it, there is a guitar and bass tab and notation book available, notated by that me person.

"Hope you all enjoy!  If you like what you hear, please support the project and get an order in!"

With less than two weeks until its release, now's the time to reserve your copy of 'Old Rake' to avoid disappointment!  The album is available on CD, with a number of limited edition signed CDs available on a first-come, first-serve basis.  For anyone brave enough, there's also a deluxe 242-page tab book transcribed by Ol Drake himself and featuring full tablature for the entire album for both guitar and bass.

Pre-order the CD and official tab book now in Europe at http://webstore.earache.com/ol-drake or in the USA at http://uswebstore.earache.com/ol-drake

'Old Rake' is also available to pre-order on iTunes, including an exclusive bonus track as well as instant downloads of "Guitarists Playing Guitars" and "Han Valen", at http://bit.ly/oldrake-itunes

BITERS NARROWLY AVOID ARREST FILMING 'RESTLESS HEARTS' MUSIC VIDEO

Atlanta rock 'n' roll punks BITERS have finished shooting a brand new music video for the track "Restless Hearts", which appears on their forthcoming debut album 'Electric Blood'.

Filmed with the band's long-time director Video Rahim (MASTODON) on location in their hometown of Atlanta, Georgia over a period of four days, the video for "Restless Hearts" spits in the face of safe, sanitised modern music and reminds viewers that hedonistic rock excess is still alive and kicking.

Check out some behind-the-scenes photos from the video shoot at http://bit.ly/1KRjMGS

Director Video Rahim describes some of the high jinks which occurred:

"'Restless Hearts' is my fifth video with the Biters.  I love working with them because they trust me and allow me to be creative.  This video is their best yet because it pulls the viewer into the rock 'n' roll world of the Biters.

"During the shoot, we mounted a camera to the front of a car to capture footage of Tuk and the band.  They drove off with the camera and shortly thereafter I received a call from Tuk saying he had been pulled over and thought he was going to jail.  I had to rush down and talk to the police officers to keep Tuk from being arrested.

"Later that night we were filming in the back of the Cadillac, and he jumped on the trunk and started singing 'Restless Hearts' while it was going 45mph down the road.  It was a holiday weekend and cops were everywhere.  It was an incredible shot and too dangerous for most people to attempt to pull off.  It's also not something I would ask bands I work with to do on a music video shoot, but it's the kind of thing that naturally happens with the Biters.  I don't have to ask them to do these things.  I just make sure I'm there to capture it and make it worth while.  Working with the Biters is exciting because you never know what they are going to do next."

Subscribe to the Earache Records YouTube channel at http://bit.ly/subscribe-earache-youtube and check back soon to see the finished video for "Restless Hearts".

BITERS' eagerly-anticipated debut album, 'Electric Blood', is due to be released on August 7th worldwide.  Pre-order the album now on CD and limited edition coloured vinyl at http://www.earache.com/biters

The album is also available to pre-order on iTunes with an exclusive bonus track as well as instant downloads of "Restless Hearts" and "Low Lives in Hi Definition".  Pre-order 'Electric Blood' now on iTunes at http://bit.ly/electricblood-itunes
