F*CK THE FACTS’ VIDEO FOR “A COWARD’S EXISTENCE” IS CERTAINLY UNIQUE
How do a dude dressed like a clown, the slow motion vomiting of Jägermeister run backwards and forwards, the inside of the human body, and the inside of a motor relate to each other from a thematic standpoint? And, for that matter, how do they relate to “A Coward’s Existence,” one of the songs from Fuck the Facts’ killer new album, Die Miserable?
I honestly don’t really know right now, and a cursory examination of the song’s lyrics isn’t really clarifying things for me. But that combination of elements certainly makes the band’s just-released, Michael Panduro-directed video for the song an unusual viewing experience, and a very, very welcome change of pace from the unimaginative metal videos we see so frequently. You can check out the clip, which debuted earlier today on Metal Injection, below. I don’t think it’s technically NSFW, but there is some kinda gross and fucked-up imagery in here, so use your best judgement.
Fuck the Facts’ Die Miserable is out now on Relapse.
