This Friday (September 15th), Germany’s CRIPPER will release their new album, Follow Me: Kill!, worldwide via Metal Blade Records! The band has now launched the 3rd and final single taken from that album: “Mother”! “Mother” is being premiered as a full production video, so make sure to check it out here:

Cripper comments: “Choosing the 3rd single from ‘Follow Me: Kill!‘ was very easy for us. ‘Mother’ marks one of the album’s backbones but can also stand on its own. The song speaks its own distinct, gloomy and heavy language, which we transported into the video. The result is a dark and very personal piece that visually translates ‘Mother’. Within the context of the previous singles, ‘Pressure’ and ‘Into The Fire’, this one gives you a hint at the full spectrum of ‘Follow Me; Kill!‘.”

For another preview of Follow Me: Kill!, the previous single “Pressure” can be heard at: metalblade.com/cripper

Follow Me: Kill! is Cripper‘s fifth album, and it adds fresh, exciting elements into their music. Still, the band never forgets where they come from and stay true to themselves within the frames of musical progression. The result is an effort that maintains the heaviness and groove the band is known for, while also containing atmospheric parts, capably realized and granting diversity.

Follow Me: Kill! track-listing:
1. Pressure
2. Into The Fire
3. World Coming Down (limited Digipak CD only)

On September 15th, Germany’s CRIPPER will release their new album Follow Me: Kill! worldwide via Metal Blade Records! The band has now launched the 2nd single taken from that album, which is entitled “Into The Fire”! The full production video for “Into The Fire” can be viewed here:

Cripper comments: “The video for ‘Into The Fire’ is our 8th music video. So what do you do as a band to not bore yourself with repetition? Right, you crank it up to 11 and take it to the next level! ‘Into The Fire’ is not only the track that inspired us for our upcoming album’s title ‘Follow Me: Kill!‘, it is also one of the album’s bosses so to speak. Music, lyrics, story and performance mark another milestone in Cripper‘s history. Many thanks at this point to our friends who once more helped us bringing our madness to life with this self-made video production by delivering brilliant performances and lending us their muscles and brains to make things work. We owe you!”

cripper-dime

Thrash artillerists CRIPPER have launched a new video today for the track “A Dime For The Establishment“, taken from their latest album, “Hyena”,on Metal Blade Records. In the video, the five villains comprising the band come under fire with their hostage during a neck-breaking escape by car, in which they encounter zombies, agents, hillbillies, and gangsters. Shot at 10 different locations with various sets and actors, plus a professional camera crew, “A Dime For The Establishment” was directed by CRIPPER‘s own guitarist, Jonathan Stenger (who also handled post-production and editing). Fans can watch the video now, courtesy of Buntmetall, via BloodyDisgusting.com: bloody-disgusting.com

The band comments: “These were days full of action, an exciting film set feeling…and of course, things went pear-shaped during some of those wild explosions. We’re all still alive – notwithstanding the highly dangerous realization of the crazy storyboard. We had a lot of fun, which we hope the clip can convey. Bang, bang!”

Cripper is currently working on their fifth studio album, and follow-up to 2014′s “Hyena”. Described as “ferocious and aggressive” (Metal Hammer Magazine) and “just the right mixture between old school and modern thrash” (Rock Hard Magazine), Hyena can be purchased at: metalblade.com/cripper

CRIPPER line-up:
Britta Gortz – vocals
Christian Brohenhorst – guitars
Jonathan Stenger – guitars
Gerrit Mohrmann – bass
Dennis Weber – drums

Surf over HERE to our friends at Rock Hard to check out the 2nd single 7″!

Ronny Bittner from Rock Hard magazine about “Hyëna“: “Stylistically, the Hanoverans deliver just the right mixture between old school and modern Thrash!“

Comments Jakob Kranz from Deaf Forever magazine: “The songs are more beefy, aggressive, precise and diverse than on ‚Antagonist’ and leave no doubt as to CRIPPER thoroughly having done their homework when it came to their new label debut!“

Metal Hammer’s Kai Leichtlein: “The fourth longplayer of Cripper has become a consistently good, ferocious and aggressive album!”

Nadine Schmidt from metal.de about the new album: “CRIPPER deliver great songs, plain and simple, as a result of their skill and experience!“

Cripper-Hyena

CRIPPER convince with their enthralling mix of old-school and modern Thrash Metal. Served with technical refinement and a lot of groove, they kick ass while being varied and distinct. Since their founding in 2005, the guys and gal from Hanover, Germany left their marks as being a rousing live band, carrying the audience with dashing songs and sweaty shows. On tours with Overkill and Onslaught, CRIPPER spread their virus throughout Europe. Once a big festival got infected, they gladly book the band repeatedly – therefore CRIPPER played several times on festivals like Summer Breeze, Metalcamp/Metaldays, Wacken Rocks, Rockharz, Eindhoven Metal Meeting and the 70.000 Tons Of Metal Cruise.

With “Hyëna” CRIPPER release their 4th studio album. The 11 tracks form a very homogeneous album, but still CRIPPER manage to give each song a very unique flavor – 11 personalities where CRIPPER‘s distinctive style is showing through in every riff and every note. Overall heavier and with a different, more transparent sound concept, “Hyëna” is ready to boost CRIPPER into the ears of the metal community around the globe. The album is only the appetizer, CRIPPER are looking forward to presenting the new stuff live! Watch out!

CRIPPER is:
Britta Görtz – vocals
Christian Bröhenhorst – guitars
Jonathan Stenger – guitars
Gerrit Mohrmann – bass
Dennis Weber – drums

“Hyëna” track listing:
1. Hyena
2. Tourniquet
3. Bloodshot Monkey Eye
4. A Dime For The Establishment
5. 7″
6. Animated Flesh
7. The Origin
8. Patterns In The Sky
