BAT - Present 'Streetbanger'
Metal-punk trio BAT release the infectious new single, "Streetbanger," alongside an official music video. The latter was directed by Ryan Waste. The song appears on the band's forthcoming sophomore album Under The Crooked Claw, due out on May 17.
BAT's Ryan Waste states, "Streetbanger' was a title and lyrical concept I’ve had since the BAT demo days, so it’s been marinating for some time. It’s one of the tunes we reworked and played live for a while so it’s already been a staple in the setlist. For the video, we walked the streets of our hometown, Richmond, VA and shot the performance in our actual rehearsal space. I was able to direct the video clip on my own terms with the help of our close friend Jeff Howlett. Jeff is an amazing photographer who shot the band photos for our upcoming album Under the Crooked Claw as well as a documentary filmmaker known for A Band Called Death (2012). "Streetbanger" embodies our raw, no-frills attitude in BAT and what you see is what you get."
