Mastiff release new music video for ‘Repulse’
MASTIFF have released a new music video!
The new music video, for the track Repulse, is taken from the Hull-based blackened sludge metal band’s upcoming new album, Leave Me The Ashes Of The Earth, which is scheduled to be released in September this year. The new music video was first premiered via Revolver.
Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band says, “Repulse was a song that we started writing fairly early on in the process of putting Leave Me The Ashes Of The Earth together, and in some ways is maybe the most traditional MASTIFF song on the album, in the sense that it’s a swirling tornado of sludge-fuelled metalcore with a big, obnoxious breakdown at the end. It was important that we had something that acted as a bridge between Plague and Leave Me…, though we’d definitely say this is a more refined take on that sound, and might be the closest to catchy that we’re ever likely to get.
We’re not the most politically charged band out there, but Repulse is a direct reaction to spineless, self-serving world leaders like the one we’re currently being forced to suffer in the UK, and the orange-faced nightmare our transatlantic friends just escaped from. Repulse also marks the first time MASTIFF has ever attempted any kind of narrative in one of our promo videos, and also the first time we’re ever let our mask of sullen misery slip to reveal that we’re actually a set of silly boys who like to make people laugh as much as grimace. We hope that hasn’t spoiled the mystique for too many people!”
