The Sword bring Gods of the Earth and Fire Lances

The Sword have been dispensing thunder and chaos in anticipation of the totemic riff insanity of their forthcoming album, Gods of the Earth (out April 1 on Kemado). The Sword also have a new video for "Fire Lances of the Ancient Hyperzephyrians," directed by Mike Colao and Josh Litwhiler, using a technique called "rotoscoping", where they traced over live-action film movement, frame by frame. The result is a visually captivating look into what could be the future of the human race as we know it.
