SUFFOCATION Takes You Behind The Scenes Of The Video For "As Grace Descends" & Discuss Touring Plans!

 On Saturday, January 5, extreme Death Metallers SUFFOCATION rang in the NEW Year in style! The "Heavy Metal Mecca", Duff's Brooklyn, became the video set for their NEW single "As Grace Descends", a crushing cut taken from their latest sonic assault: 'Pinnacle Of Bedlam' (set to be released on February 15 in Europe, February 19 in North America, via Nuclear Blast Records).

The video was directed by The Studio's Tommy Jones and should see the light the day around the time that the record drops. For now, here is a behind the scenes look at the video shoot, along with an exclusive interview with SUFFO's own Terrance Hobbs (guitar) and Derek Boyer (bass).

Watch and share this with all your friends, and make sure you pick up one of the best Death Metal albums in recent memory: 'Pinnacle Of Bedlam'.

NOTE: SUFFOCATION's North American tour will run from April 3rd to the 28th!




'Pinnacle Of Bedlam' features 10 genre-defining-bone-crushing tracks and also marks the return of drummer Dave Culross, who played with the band previously on their 'Despise The Sun' EP. Founding member and former drummer Mike Smith also makes a special guest appearance on the re-recorded Breeding the Spawn track, “Beginning of Sorrow.”

Watch KRISIUN's NEW Video For "The Will To Potency" Now!


On their last tour across the US, the Três Irmãos of KRISIUN filmed a new video for "The Will To Potency", a song from their latest studio album, The Great Execution. The director and producer of the video, Tommy Jones, comments:

"The band had originally contacted me to do a live video on the 'Conquerors of the World Tour'. We filmed every night live, however the day before the last show of the tour, we had a day off on a drive through New Mexico towards the last show in Texas. I had the idea of filming the band out in the middle of the desert because I love that area and always wanted to do a desert shoot. So I convinced the driver to pull over in the middle of nowhere at 9AM. We filmed for about 2 and a half hours out there, using a laptop as audio playback. We caught the attention of the Mexican Border Patrol who came to check out what we were doing. They sent about 3 SUVs out to check us out. Once they made sure we weren't doing anything 'too illegal' they got a kick out of it and were taking pictures on their iPhones because they said in all their years, they haven't seen a band set up in the middle of the desert.

"When it was all said and done, we filmed every night on tour, but it ended up that the majority of the video was filmed on that day off in the middle of the New Mexican desert in about 2.5 hours.

"It was a fun video, and I'm glad we got to do it this way, we all are really stoked how the desert stuff came out."

European tour dates for KRISIUN will soon be announced, so stay tuned for an update coming soon!
