New Hampshire’s post-black metallers VATTNET VISKAR have launched a new video for “Colony”, the second single from their upcoming sophomore album, Settler, on Century Media. The clip was made by multimedia artist, Josh Graham (ex-NEUROSIS, SOUNDGARDEN), who also created the band’s “Breath of the Almighty” and “Settler” videos. Head over to Metal Injection.net, HERE, to see Graham’s latest creation, “Colony”:
VATTNET VISKAR’s Nick Thornbury (Guitar/Vocals) comments: “I was reading an article about how a colony of ants actually learns faster than Google, which is completely insane. Luckily we had this sort of mathy but still dark sounding song that seemed a perfect match for that concept. I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.”

Featuring 8 tracks that expand upon their “awe-inspiring, violently gorgeous” sound (PITCHFORK.com), Settler will be released June 16th in North America (June 29th in Europe).
