Transylvania County, North Carolina-based gothic heavy psych rock band Bloody Hammers have filmed a music video for the track \u2018Not Of This Earth\u2019, which can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Frontman \/ multi-instrumentalist Anders Manga commented: \u201cDevallia and I knocked out this video a couple weeks ago in our little cabin basement. The current health crisis has kept us home but the green screen can take us (crudely) anywhere and BEYOND!<\/p>\n

\u201cLyrically, this song is a straight tribute to Roger Corman\u2019s 1957 drive-in sci-fi \/ horror classic. As much as I think we\u2019re inspired by Hammer Films and classic European gothic horror, really, Corrman is just as important and certainly an American treasure.\u201d <\/p>\n

Bloody Hammers issue sixth full-length studio album Songs Of Unspeakable… Terror<\/em> on January 15th, 2021 through Napalm Records. The outing will be made available in various formats and can be pre-ordered here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Regarding how the horror punk-inspired outing came together, Manga stated: \u201cWhen the pandemic hit and I realized I\u2019d be stuck at home for a while, I started thinking I needed to dig into a music project. I was oddly inspired by the unknown, and fear that this plague was gonna wipe us all out. I needed a creative escape. We\u2019d just released the Bloody Hammers album The Summoning<\/em> a few months earlier, so I didn\u2019t think about doing another Hammers album at all. When COVID was really hitting New York City hard, that got me thinking about my favourite bands from that whole New York \/New Jersey area… Misfits, Wendy O. Williams, Ramones, Dead Boys, The Voluptuous Horror Of Karen Black, Twisted Sister and such. That\u2019s where I found inspiration to do a horror punk-ish record.<\/p>\n

\u201cI sent a few songs to my label, Napalm Records, mentioning that I\u2019d done some horror punk-ish inspired stuff and wanted to release them digitally under some new band name I\u2019d yet to think up. They loved the songs, felt they\u2019d still fit under the Bloody Hammers name, and I figured, \u2018Well… cool, I guess our listeners are used to us being a bit genre-fluid by now, so yeah… let\u2019s do it!\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, writing Songs Of Unspeakable… Terror<\/em> was escapism from the real-life horrors of 2020. At no point did I get too serious in subject matter, my goal was to make a party record for the apocalypse and that\u2019s what I think we got.\u201d<\/p>\n
