Belgian tech metallers BEAR have released a frenzied, heaving hulk of a video for their intense track ‘Blackpool’ which was shot at their /// album release show in Kavka, Antwerp on March 25th 2017.
Check out the video here:
Comments bass player Dries Verhaert:
‘Everyone who has seen BEAR live knows that we bring the hammer! We go hard. That’s why we thought it’s time to release a visual statement of that. The proof is in the pie so take a bite out of this chunk of mayhem. We present to you: BLACKPOOL!’
‘Blackpool’ is taken from BEAR’s current critically acclaimed release ///, their most evocative and vitriolic album to date, comprising of 11 blistering tracks of crushingly heavy rhythms, distorted harmonies and demonic growls. Bearing resemblance to tech metal forerunners Meshuggah and the no-nonsense aggression of The Dillinger Escape Plan, BEAR exude a stylistic chaotic quality which stands them head and shoulders above their peers.
The band are set for a busy summer with festivals already confirmed and a tour to be announced shortly.
Catch BEAR at the following festivals this summer:
16 June – Graspop Metal Meeting – Belgium
6-10 July – Tech-Metal Fest – Newark, UK
14 July – Rock Herk Festival – Belgium
/// is out now via Basick Records and available to order – Physical & Merch || Digital
