VOODOO TERROR TRIBE RELEASES "BLOODSOAKED" VIDEO

New Jersey thrash progressive metal have released a video for the track "BloodSoaked" (you can check it below). The track comes from the band´s latest EP "A Walk in Hell" that was released on November 13th. The band has issued this statement "Voodoo Terror Tribe's new music video for the song "BloodSoaked" presents deliberate darkness and intensity. We meant it to be more serious and in-your-face than our previous works, as the song is our heaviest so far. So as for filming, we threw ourselves out of our East-Coast element and out into the dark-recesses of remote Ohio. Working with director Jeffrey Moore and Assistant Director Angel Alfonso of Axtravaganza Films was a welcome breath of professionalism, and the video shows it.
"BloodSoaked" is our fastest and darkest song yet, and we wanted to present those ideas explicitly, with art and horror-flick-mysticism. We're proud of the amazing cast and the extraordinary work everyone committed in such a short amount of time. There is an interesting storyline to the film, that with multiple viewings one might discern, but even if you don't find the linear plot, the images and the atmosphere speak for themselves. Our dalliance with the horror film vibe and moderately authentic ritualism might have put the taste of blood in our mouths. There's no returning to the light after this, and everything only gets darker from here...".
