NAPALM DEATH Release Lyric Video for “Backlash Just Because”
24th July 2020UK Grindcore pioneers NAPALM DEATH will be releasing their new studio album âThroes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatismâ on September 18th, 2020 via Century Media Records.
The group is launching a first single from the upcoming album today. Check out âBacklash Just Becauseâ in a lyric video by Cloud Music Typography here:
NAPALM DEATHâs vocalist Mark âBarneyâ Greenway comments about the song as follows: âThis song in particular really spurred me on when I was writing lyrics for the album overall. Itâs raucous and traditional, but also quirky and discordant and ultimately catchy-as-anything in the context of rampaging noise. Lyrically it was directed at the spiteful art of creating easy targets and fomenting paranoia and revulsion, which is something that I feel has become de rigueur in very recent times. I really let loose on the more sporadic vocals at the end of the song â itâs a real barkfest at that point. Lovely.â
âThroes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatismâ is the highly anticipated follow-up to 2015âs acclaimed âApex Predator â Easy Meatâ album and the 16th studio album effort by NAPALM DEATH. It was again recorded with longtime producer Russ Russell and features artwork by Frode Sylthe.Â
From the pinnacle of confrontational instrumental extremity and steadfast lyrical humanity, NAPALM DEATHâs new album warps musical landscapes all over again. âThroes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatismâ includes 12 songs seething with caustic evolution and unrelenting scope.
