When you absolutely need a song to crush all of the fools, maybe consider Frozen Soul‘s latest single “DEATHWEAVER”. Shit goes hard — as you’d expect, really — and this single’s out now ahead of their upcoming tour of the U.S.’ west coast and impending album release.
Featured on their new record No Place Of Warmth, “DEATHWEAVER” is a chunky, heavy ass-beater through and through. Rather than let people misconstrue the song’s intent, vocalist Chad Green explained what it’s all about.
“‘DEATHWEAVER’ is about how slowly, in time, you lose pieces of yourself and gain new perspectives. Weaving your memories of life’s experiences to form who you are inside, and the cruel nature of life—the cycle of death—and how hard it is to stay who you are.”
According to Green, the single’s accompanying video pulls from various pop culture references that resonate with them. We’re talking anime alike Ninja Scroll and Noise Marines, games like Warhammer, and the horror series Hellraiser.
“In the end, the video is about a woman that is centuries old, and in her eyes she is forever chasing her dream of creating the perfect harp. In reality, she is using the flesh, bones, veins, and nerves of her victims (us performing) to make this bone harp—the end reveal is nuts!. I also had a ton of fun working with my childhood friend Eric from Mile High Animation on the design of the harp, he 3D printed it in pieces then I put it together, painted and gored it up with the help of Sam!”
