THROWDOWN: Two New Videos Released
January 22, 2010California metallers THROWDOWN debuted two brand new music videos for the songs "This Continuum" and "The Scythe" from their latest full-length album, "Deathless", on this past weekend's episode of MTV2's "Headbanger's Ball". The clips can now be viewed below.
The clips for "The Scythe" and "This Continuum" are more than just traditional music videos. Instead, they are two "scenes" from a shortform feature film inspired by "Deathless" directed by Cale Glendening, who had made acclaimed documentaries for DEMON HUNTER and RELIENT K. "We stepped back and asked ourselves what would we'd appreciate from our favorite bands," vocalist Dave Peters explained. "And we wanted to offer [something unique] to our fans."
"Deathless" sold 2,600 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD came out in the U.S. on November 10 through E1 Music (formerly KOCH Records). The CD, which will be made available in Europe on January 22, 2010 via Nuclear Blast Records, was produced by Mudrock (AVENGED SEVENFOLD, GODSMACK, POWERMAN 5000) and was mixed by Chris "Zeuss" Harris, who has previously worked with HATEBREED, THE RED CHORD and SHADOWS FALL, among others. The artwork was created by Ryan Clark of Invisible Creature and DEMON HUNTER.
"Deathless" is the band's fourth album with Dave Peters as frontman and primary songwriter, its second with guitarist Mark Choiniere (who joined the band in 2005) and first with bassist Mark Mitchell. Drummer Jarrod Alexander (ex-DEATH BY STEREO),who performed on the band's breakthrough "Haymaker" album in 2003, returned to work on "Deathless".
