Haggard Cat have released a video for Bone Shaker, taken from their forthcoming album Challenger.
“The video for ‘Bone Shaker’ was inspired by Japanese Kabuki Theatre,” says vocalist/guitarist Matt Reynolds. “We found footage of a crazy Japanese gameshow where contestants would act out given scenes using mime. We completely underestimated how much effort, coordination and timing goes into the art. Every prop you see in the video is homemade by us and everything that happens we acted out with a group of friends in one room. It seemed like an accurate representation of how we function as a band so we persevered and the result is ‘Bone Shaker’. Also we get eaten by a monster that we later explode, because we got carried away.”
Challenger is due for release on the 20th April via Earache Records, available to pre-order HERE.
