DeadLord-2015

Swedish hard rockers DEAD LORD continue to promote their latest album “Heads Held High” by debuting a promotional video for the track “Don’t Give A Damn”.

The clip was directed by Daniel Garptoft and Maria Evelius for the production company Dirt Frame and can now be seen below.

DEAD LORD checked in with a comment about the clip as follows: “We’re proud to present to you the second music video of the album “Heads Held High”. This time we give you: “Don’t Give A Damn”! We teamed up with swedish film crew Dirt Frame to conceive this 70s-tv-show-oozing performance clip! Heavy Rock guitars! Smoking Marshall stacks! Polyester suits! Soap bubbles! It features all the good stuff you can ever want in rock and roll, and more! So sit back and dream yourself away to a time when the tv-hosts didn’t know, or care, what band they had on their show!”

Also, DEAD LORD are proud to announce their first European headline tour for September/October, where they will be appearing alongside fellow Swedes Night Viper as special guests and Lizzies form Spain in the opening slot. Here are the dates:

DEAD LORD: New Album ‘Heads Held High’ Cover Artwork Revealed

DeadLord

Sweden’s DEAD LORD has revealed the cover artwork for their upcoming album, Heads Held High, which is going to be released worldwide by Century Media Records on August 21st. DEAD LORD’s debut album, Goodbye Repentance, hit the scene like an airstrike out of nothing in 2013 and gained them the reputation of being excellent song writers and vanguards of the new scene of classic hard rock. Two years of constant live activities have managed to spread the name of DEAD LORD further all across the rock music scene. With the newly gained experience and armed to the teeth with killer songs, DEAD LORD entered the studio in late 2014 to record Heads Held High, an album with “10 songs of solid no-bogus, face-melting, twin-guitar, smart-rock action”, as singer/guitarist Hakim Krim describes the album.

The album’s artwork was created by Pol Abran / Branca Studio; details about formats, vinyl color splits and more will be announced soon.
