SAVIOURS ON HEADBANGERS BALL!

Oakland, CA quartet SAVIOURS’ brand new music video, for the track “Narcotic Sea”, saw its worldwide premiere yesterday via MTV2’s Headbangers Blog. Check out the mind-bending clip online now at this location. The video will make its world television premiere as part of the February 19 edition of the network’s long-running Headbangers Ball program.

“Narcotic Sea” is taken from SAVIOURS’ new album Into Abaddon, out now on Kemado Records. The video was directed by Dante Della Maggiore (Zombie Attack!) and features the band performing the song in a live setting as a consciousness-expanding quasi-storyline unfolds.

“The Narcotic Sea video is basically about being in a self-induced haze during the Earth’s final days,” SAVIOURS drummer Scott Batiste explains. “We wanted to capture “a little bit of Oakland” in our first video so, part of the video features us jamming out in a West Oakland warehouse. The rest is us on a quest for killer times in spite of all the decay and depression that surrounds us each day. We took a trip up Highway 1 (north of San Francisco) and hit up some killer rock formations and beaches and just partied, basically. Dante Della Maggiore, who directed the video, then took all of the footage and tripped it out as hard as possible. We’re very stoked on how it turned out and we’re ready for the world to get a glimpse of what SAVIOURS is about.”

SAVIOURS are currently in the midst of a massive US tour alongside fellow Bay Area hessians HIGH ON FIRE, and will soon be joining FU MANCHU for a series of dates.
