The companion release to the sixteen studio album Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism sees the innovators of extremity delivering peak punishment.
Napalm Death’s mini album Resentment is Always Seismic – A Final Throw of Throes is out today via Century Media Records and the band has offered up a disturbing new video for the (almost) title track “Resentment is Always Seismic (Dark Sky Burial Dirge)”. Like something out of a Japanese horror film (I may or may not die in seven days, stay tuned), the video features black and white graphics of unsettling images with a marching track to carry you to the inevitable end.
Napalm Death frontman, Barney Greenway, comments on the mini-album: “You can certainly consider “Resentment Is Always…” as an extension of – or partner recording to – the “Throes…” album. We had long since wanted to put a mini-album out – in the spirit of the old days – and found we had enough quality tracks even after all the “Throes…” bonus tracks to do that. Hopefully this mini holds some nice twists in its own right for people, and certainly covering “People Pie” by Slab! made us really stretch ourselves, which feels great artistically. In the end, resentment is certainly seismic – it can trigger the complete erosion of humanity in many situations. That was the point that I really wanted to hammer home overall.”
The 8-track mini-album Resentment is Always Seismic – a final throw of Throes is available as ltd. CD digipak, vinyl as well as in a digital album format. Purchase the various formats of Resentment is Always Seismic – a final throw of Throes, HERE.
