Edmonton, Alberta, Canada-based metal group Striker have filmed a music video for the track \u2018On The Run\u2019. Directed by Lindsay Thomas Robinson, the clip can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Striker issued sixth full-length studio album Play To Win<\/em> on October 26th, 2018 through the band\u2019s own imprint Record Breaking Records.<\/p>\n

Play To Win<\/em> was produced by Striker, with mixing and mastering by Henrik Udd.<\/p>\n

Guitarist Tim Brown commented: \u201cPlay to win: if you want to win, you have to play the game. Find the rules and break them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is our sixth album and third independent release.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we followed the rules and listened to the industry people, we\u2019d have gone absolutely nowhere.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlay To Win<\/em> is about listening to yourself, following your own path, and playing that fifth ace hidden in your sleeve.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis album is designed to light a fire under your ass and get you moving, and we made sure to get the most modern, ear-melting sounds possible. It\u2019s all about where metal is going, not where it has been, and this is our soundtrack to success.\u201d<\/p>\n
