New York's SWORN ENEMY are currently annihilating the masses across North America with Earth Crisis and Terror and will continue their unrelenting schedule this April as direct support to labemates Divine Heresy. From A Second Story Window (Blackmarket/Metal Blade), With Blood Comes Cleansing (Victory) and Dance Club Massacre (Blackmarket/Metal Blade) round out the bill.
A video for A Place of Solace, the first single from the new album Maniacal, was recently shot by acclaimed director David Brodsky (GWAR, The Red Chord). The video made its exclusive online debut through the Headbangers Ball Blog today and premieres on MTV2 this Sat. night. Sal (vocals) states: We hooked up with the amazing director David Brodsky (GWAR, The Red Chord) for this video and are stoked with the end result. The location was an abandoned psychiatric ward, so I guess you can say it pretty much fit what we were looking for. The storyline is loosely based on a father and the son that have done wrong to each other, and both, in order to achieve their solace, believe that theyd be better off without the other rightly or wrongly. We hope you enjoy the madness.
SWORN ENEMY have returned with Maniacal, their most crushing offering to date, and this monumental assault is quickly going to catch the entire genres attention. Featuring a newly reinvigorated lineup and new home at Century Media, this 10-track offering takes the groups sound to new heights, which sees them embracing a thrashier edge and pummeling the listener with unrivaled aggression. Maniacal is now available everywhere.
Throw all your preconceived notions out the window, because this is an all new SWORN ENEMY, determined to carve out their own unique new path within the metal genre.
