MUSIC NEWS: CRASHFACE Announce New EP Details & Share Video For ‘MANIAC’ Featuring Wargasm’s Sam Matlock
CRASHFACE have announced their new EP LIFE AND DEATH IN THE WASTELAND is set for release on 13th September.
Alongside the EP announcement a video for MANIAC featuring Wargasm’s Sam Matlock has been shared.
“This one is for embracing crazy. Continuing on from the story of ‘C.H.A.I.N.S.A.W’, ‘MANIAC’ persists with venom in expressing frustration with the modern world, specifically the music industry (The Wasteland), especially in what it’s forcing artists to do in order to be “relevant”. Our brother-in-crime JAW has made this video what it is and knocked it out the park yet again. We wanted it to maintain an Edgar Wright-esque jagged edge while staying true to our aesthetics, and I think we’ve nailed it. And massive shout-out to the legendary Slim Jim’s in London for letting us do this super last minute!,” says the duo.
“I had the song idea for a while but got pretty stuck, then showed it to Sam while we were hanging out and he was all in. The man is chaos but it’s exactly what this chapter needed. And it’s a cute 360 because Sam actually helped me write and record the first ever CRASHFACE song, the solo in ‘System At It’ is him playing! So it’s pretty fitting that he’s helping us kick off our third EP.”
