CANNIBAL CORPSE Performs In Perth, Australia: Video Available

October 12, 2006

Video footage of CANNIBAL CORPSE performing the first two tracks — "Unleashing The Bloodthirsty" and "Murder Worship" — at its gig at Heat Nightclub in Perth, Australia on October 10 has been posted on-line at YouTube.com. This was the final date of CANNIBAL CORPSE's first Australian tour in 12 years and, like Sydney, Auckland (NZ),and the previously announced shows in Adelaide and Melbourne, Perth followed suit and sold out.

The West Australian newspaper reported in its July 8, 2006 edition that CANNIBAL CORPSE's Perth concert sparked calls for the band to be banned over its alleged glorification of "child rape, suicide, murder and necrophilia" in its lyrics.

As previously reported, George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher of CANNIBAL CORPSE is the latest metal musician to lend his voice to the cartoon series "Death Clock Metalocalypse". Fisher recently recorded his part and reportedly "did a great job." Other musicians who have contributed to the series include King Diamond, Michael Amott (ARCH ENEMY),Warrel Dane (NEVERMORE),Steve Smyth (NEVERMORE),Jeff Loomis (NEVERMORE),Kirk Hammett (METALLICA) and James Hetfield (METALLICA).

CANNIBAL CORPSE's video for the song "Death Walking Terror" has been posted online at YouTube.com. The track comes off "Kill", the band's 10th studio LP, which came out late March. The album debuted at No. 170 on The Billboard 200 chart, selling more than 6,000 copies in its first week. It was the second time in the band's career that one of its albums breached the mostly pop-friendly list; in 1996, "Vile" opened at No. 151, with more than 6,100 copies sold.
