The Body - "To Carry the Seeds of Death within Me"
VideosCommenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=bTXDLifjTUY Well, here's a video that'll surely give you nightmares. As if their compositions weren't terror-inducing enough, Portland avant-garde, experimental metal duo The Body have enlisted the demented talents of London musician The Haxan Cloak just to make sure their new album I Shall Die Here is even more fucked up than its predecessor, last year's Christs, Redeemers.
"To Carry the Seeds of Death within Me" is a horrific piece by itself - The Haxan Cloak's rumbling bass has certainly enhanced this quality of The Body's music. But then there's the Richard Rankin-shot visuals that are attached to it, which depict a man staring into a mirror, preparing to perform some kind of invasive procedure on his head, and going on to cut in. Thanks a lot, The Body, Haxan Cloak, and Richard Rankin; I dedicate my loss of sleep and consequent delirium to you.
I Shall Die Here is due out April 1 via RVNG. It is currently streaming on Pitchfork. By the way, we're masochists and loved The Haxan Cloak's Excavation, which dropped last year:
