ARSIS: 'Forced To Rock' Video Available

January 21, 2010

"Forced To Rock", the new video from Virginia-based technical melodic death metallers ARSIS, can be viewed below. The clip was filmed last month with MyGoodEye (THE RED CHORD, GOATWHORE, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER).

Commented guitarist/vocalist James Malone: "I don't think I have the vocabulary to properly express how excited I am for the video clip 'Forced To Rock' to be unleashed upon an expecting metal community.

"The video was shot in sub-zero temperatures and we were truly suffering the entire time, but I guess all great art comes from suffering.

"I would like to give Kim Dylla (vocalist of the band THISMEANSYOU) the biggest thank you ever for her participation in our video and for forcing us to rock.

"The video shoot was something I will never forget."

"Forced To Rock" comes off ARSIS's new album, "Starve For The Devil", which is scheduled for release in North America on February 9 via Nuclear Blast Records.
