"Let The Madness Begin", the new video from FOZZY, can also be viewed below. The clip was filmed during the group's 2010 U.K. and U.S. dates.
"Let The Madness Begin" comes off FOZZY's new album, "Chasing The Grail", which sold around 2,200 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD landed at position No. 6 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.
In a recent interview with Ultimate-Guitar.com, Ward stated about "Let The Madness Begin", "[That particular track] is all about the balance between a really good, classic melody and a great, classic rock riff. That was our focus for the whole record, but I think 'Let The Madness Begin' is probably the one song on the album where I think that balance is best.
"Sometimes when you're trying to write a heavy album, you find that sometimes you'll end up compromising the melody for the riff, because obviously, the riff is so important for the drum part. On some rock albums, the vocals become the focus, and then the music takes a backseat. We tried to find that fine line where the music was important and the melody was important. We treated them as equals, and I think 'Let The Madness Begin' was that perfect balance between hard rock melodic vocals and a big metal riff."
"Chasing the Grail" was released on January 26 via Australia's Riot! Entertainment.
