NEWS: Karras want no more Negative Life?

Celebrating the release of their new album “We Poison Their Young“, mastered by Cult of Luna guitarist Magnus Lindberg in Sweden at Redmount Studio, French Death Grind trio Karras have dropped a music video for the track “Negative Life”. Named as an ode to the life and death of Father Damian Karras from the cult horror film “The Exorcist“, front loading their music with sinister and menacing razor sharp riffage…

Vocalist and bassist Diego Janson comments: “The idea of the clip was to bring the lyrics of the song to the center of attention by having them transcribed throughout the clip by Romain Pareja, JD Mendoza, and Angéline, three tattoo artists from Hand In Glove Tattoo shop in Paris, as well as a calligrapher, Leeloo, and a writer of out of service Parisian metro stations, renamed Father Karras to preserve his anonymity. The scenes all take place in a closed space, parallel to the claustrophobic exorcism sessions that young Roland Doe undergoes throughout the album. They show through images and text all the suffering and the despair of a teenager imbued with a black and negative life. This is the last song of the album, hope and light will not close it.”
