States lead singer Roger Miret: "This is a very personal letter for my family acknowledging the love, respect, and honor we hold for New York hardcore and our families today, tomorrow, and forever!"
Director/producer Ian McFarland shares, "When it comes down to it, [co-director] Mike [Pecci] and I don't pump out videos at the same rate that other directors do, and it is because we just don't want to put out crap. We take pride in every video we do and love to do videos that not only the bands are proud of, but that we are proud of as well."
AGNOSTIC FRONT leaves the U.S. tomorrow for the launch of their European tour in The Netherlands.
"Addiction", the last video from AGNOSTIC FRONT, can be viewed below. The clip was shot in November 2007 in Boston, Massachusetts and was directed by Ian McFarland and Mike Pecci for Killswitch Productions. The song comes off the band's new album, "Warriors", which was released in North America on November 6, 2007 via Nuclear Blast Records.
"Warriors" was produced by MADBALL/HAZEN STREET frontman Freddy Cricien, who also happens to be AGNOSTIC FRONT vocalist Roger Miret's younger brother. The engineering duties were handled by Zeuss at Planet Z in Hadley, Massachusetts. Roger Miret commented: "As most of you already know, Freddy is my little brother and the frontman for the NYHC fury MADBALL! The collaboration between us is sure to make an impact worldwide!"
