We’ve teamed up with occult rockers Bloody Hammers to bring you the exclusive music video premiere for their new song “When the Reaper Comes”. The black and white video embraces minimalism and an old-school horror aesthetic to create something haunting. The track comes from their upcoming album Lovely Sort of Death.
Vocalist/guitarist/bassist Anders Manga tells BD:
Many times a band will release the fastest, most in-your-face track they have as a first single. “Lovely Sort of Death” has some fast tracks, but it is also more versatile than that. I decided to do something different and go with ‘The Reaper Comes’ because it accurately portrays how I was feeling at the time the album was written, while snowed in at the top of a mountain.
Lovely Sort of Death comes out August 5th via Napalm Records.
Keyboard/organist Devallia adds, “The video was shot along the Blue Ridge Parkway near Asheville. People kept stopping by while we were shooting, only to be horrified. Eventually we were tired of trying to hide the scythe. We would just smile and wave, and tell them don’t fear the reaper.”
