Avatar release new music video for ‘New Land’

Swedish metallers AVATAR have released a brand new music video!

The new music video, for the track New Land, is taken from the band’s latest studio record Feathers & Flesh which was released last year. The release of the new music video comes after astronomers discovered TRAPPIST-1, a new solar system hosting seven terrestrial planets and the new music video showcases the band embarking on a mission to the stars. Speaking about the ‘mission’, guitarist Jonas ‘Kungen’ Jarlsby says, “The New Land mission will focus primarily on finding life and sustainable living conditions. Secondly we will look for harvestable resources such as various types of metal, lead, copper, zinc, thrash, death… that sort of thing. How do I turn this off? I’m thirsty! Where is my mead? And where are your pants? Wait, is this thing still recording?!”
