NYC stoner rock/doom rock unit, KINGS DESTROY, today unveils a brand new video for the track "Smokey Robinson," via Revolver Magazine. Shot by Pit Full Of Shit's Frank Huang at their official record release show earlier this year at Brooklyn's Saint Vitus Bar, the tune comes by way of the band's self-titled War Crime Recordings-issued full-length.
Of
the latest clip, vocalist Steve Murphy comments, "Our previous videos
always had storylines so this time we bring you a live sampling of the
band. It made sense to have it filmed at Saint Vitus in Brooklyn, New
York on our record release show because that place is home to us much
like CBGB was home to our hardcore bands. The people at Saint Vitus have
nurtured us from our early days. We also chose Frank Huang to produce
it. Frank is in the process of documenting the heavy scene in NYC like
no one else. His work is important and down the road it will be Frank
who will be recognized for his tireless contribution to our scene. I did
not tell the band that we were doing this video so it's a true
representation of KINGS DESTROY live. The words of the song have
darker undertones about the problems we have with racial equality in our
country. The words play off the more upbeat tempo of the song."
Watch "Smokey Robinson" come to life at THIS LOCATION.
In related KINGS DESTROY
news, the band will take to the streets again on a short run of live
