Havok - Launch First Single From Upcoming Album
After unveiling details of their new studio album V a couple of weeks ago, Havok now share the video clip for the first single "Phantom Force". The clip was directed by K. Hunter Lamar. V will be released worldwide on May 1st, 2020 via Century Media Records.
Havok's lead guitarist Reece Scruggs commented on the track: "Somewhere in the middle of writing V we all came together and made the decision that we needed a full blown face peeler track. I remember David saying 'Reign In Blood tempo', so I came up with something almost immediately and sent it over to the guys. And aside from some subtle stylistic details it stayed pretty true to that original concept. 'Phantom Force' as a first single will assure our fans and skeptics that we haven't lost a step in making vicious, straight forward, non-gimmicked heavy metal."
Guitarist/vocalist David Sanchez added the following in regards to the lyrics of the track: "'Phantom Force' is about the mysterious deaths that happen during sleep paralysis in the Hmong people. These people fled their war-torn homeland and could not seem to escape a terrifying fate. The goal with this video was to visually represent the fear and panic that people must've felt just before their sudden nocturnal demise. Watch at your own risk..."
