PALLBEARER: Release Video And Single For ‘I Saw The End’

Little Rock, Arkansas-based ruminant progressive doom quartet, PALLBEARER, have today released a brand new video for single ‘I Saw The End’. The video was directed and produced by the acclaimed Zev Deans of Panorama Programming.

‘I Saw The End‘ is the imposing opening track for upcoming record “Heartless”, ­ a wistful and serious plea for us all to take heed of the warning signs around us, else our dismal fate be sealed.

PALLBEARER stated:
“Both song and video present a telescopic view on an eternity of corruption. The path of greed leads to misery. When higher awareness allowed us to claw our way out of the mud, we found new ways to exploit one another, abusing the gift that could bring us to new heights. In the end, we pay for our selfishness. Join us for this elegy for what might have been.”

You can watch the video for ‘I Saw The End’ here:

PALLBEARER‘s upcoming third record “Heartless” is due for release on 24th March 2017 via Nuclear Blast in the UK, Europe, Australia & New Zealand.

“Heartless” is also now available for pre-order here.

“Heartless” was recorded entirely to analogue tape at Fellowship Hall Sound, Little Rock, Arkansas between June and August 2016. The record was produced by PALLBEARER, and mixed by acclaimed producer Joe Barresi (TOOL, THE MELVINS, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE). Engineering was handled by Jason Weinheimer and Zach Reeves, and mastered by Grammy winning mastering engineer Dave Collins (BLACK SABBATH, ALICE COOPER, METALLICA).

The ruminative album artwork was created by hugely talented Indiana based oil painter Michael Lierly, and the album layout was handled by Chimere Noire.

PALLBEARER commented on “Heartless”:
“This album finds us exploring new territories; instead of staring into to the void – both above and within – »Heartless« concentrates its power on a grim reality. Our lives, our homes and our world are all plumbing the depths of utter darkness, as we seek to find any shred of hope we can.”

The “Heartless” tracklisting reads as follows:

01. I Saw The End
02. Thorns
03. Lie Of Survival
04. Dancing In Madness
05. Cruel Road
06. Heartless
07. A Plea For Understanding

PALLBEARER will be gracing our UK and European stages in April 2017, for 16 show dates.

Initially formed in 2008, PALLBEARER grew from the fertile underground metal scene of Little Rock, Arkansas – releasing their debut full-length “Sorrow And Extinction” in early 2012. The record made an immediate and immense impact on die-hard doom fans and metal critics alike, also forming the four piece fans outside of the metal scene. Hailed by Rolling Stone as the “#1 Metal Album Of 2012,” the album also received the coveted “Best New Music” stamp of approval from Pitchfork and landed the band on end of year lists at SPIN and NPR.

Their formidable sophomore record – 2014’s »Foundations Of Burden« featured on countless critic’s end of year lists and cemented their reputation as an unstoppable and emotive force – driving doom beyond its imagined limits, carving themselves an entirely original path through the realm of heavy music. The record charted in the Billboard Top 100, achieving Pitchfork‘s “Best New Music” accolade and Decibel‘s highly honoured “Album Of The Year” award.

PALLBEARER are:
Brett Campbell | lead vocals, electric & acoustic guitars, synthesizers
Devin Holt | electric & acoustic guitars, vocals
Joseph D. Rowland | electric bass, vocals, synthesizers
Mark Lierly | percussion

Norwegian progressive extreme metal band ENSLAVED will return to the US and Canada in early 2013 for a headlining, 20-show Winter Rite tour, joined by US doom metallers PALLBEARER and occult rockers ANCIENT VVISDOM as openers. Kick-off is in Philadelphia on January 30th with the tour closing in New York City on February 22nd.

Enslaved rhythm guitarist/songwriter/lyricist Ivar Bjørnson checks in from Norway about the upcoming trek: “North America has become like a second home-shore to us; the rising support we’ve been getting for the last albums and tours has been amazing! We’re more than ready to come over again and play our new album Riitiir live to show that the new material is extremely well-fitted for a live setting, and to reflect the enthusiasm and dedication we’ve been getting from the fans over there! See you on the road!”
