Uniform & The Body unveil video for “Day of Atonement”: Watch

The post Uniform & The Body unveil video for “Day of Atonement”: Watch appeared first on Consequence of Sound.

Industrial-noise act Uniform and experimental-metal band The Body have joined forced for a new joint album, Everything That Dies Someday Comes Back. Along with releasing the LP today, they’ve teamed up with Heavy Consequence to unveil the video for the track “Day of Atonement”.

The new collaborative album follows their previous joint release, 2018’s Mental Wounds Not Healing, and expands upon the experimental metallic post-industrial sound that the two duos produce.

The video for “Day of Atonement” is shot on Super 8, and best described by its director, Alexander Barton, as follows: “I wanted to make an abstraction of violence. The film’s character is in low resolution, a changing of disguises, an ambiguous identity, shadowed ideologies and masked by the skyline. The hooded figure is evasive to society. In this collection of images, he has prepared himself and represents the threat of the unknown.”

The title of the album Everything That Dies Someday Comes Back is taken from a lyric in the Bruce Springsteen classic “Atlantic City”, but is also inspired by the James Elroy book My Dark Places, specifically the author’s notion that closure is an illusion.

Everything That Dies Someday Comes Back, is now available in various formats via Sacred Bones Records. A special “2 in 1” CD version contains both the new LP and the aforementioned previous album, Mental Wounds Not Healing.

Uniform will embark on a North American tour with Japanese experimental metal act Boris this coming Monday, August 19th, while The Body have lined up a brief U.S. jaunt for September. See both itineraries below.
